THE BOXING LESSON, HOME, SANDPIT #186, REALITY WON'T BITE
A boxing lesson, a taxi ride, a short fling, an unexpected visit and a resurrected dog - each, in its own way, a survival lesson collected in the weightier and more reflection-inviting shorts session of our programme. Fresh and gripping, or cameral and contemplative, they all capture significant individual mutations, often in an absorbing cinematic language.
Life as a desert. A succession of indistinguishable days, and the Thursday that could have made a difference...
Hadrian Marcu has studied Law and Film-making, and worked as an assistant director to the feature The Paper Will Be Blue (Radu Munteanu, 2005), included in our last year's programme.
