Screening February 24th - Fantasporto
SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 24
Fantasporto's show features a wide range of proposals from the science fiction fantasy "Glass Garden" by Shin Su-won (South Korea) to the "director's cut" of "Dream Demon" , by Harley Cokeliss, a British horror film classic that makes this year 30 years. It is also a must for the intrigue and realism of the Budapest Noir political-police drama by the Hungarian Eva Gárdos (European anteater), who lived in the oppressive atmosphere of fascist Hungary in the late 1930s.
Toho, the biggest film producer in the country, presents "Ajin - Demi - Human" by Katsuyuki Motohiro, a fantastic action story about humans who never die, while the North American Preston deFrancis presents with "Ruin Me", passed in a limit event that mixes camping, haunted house and "escape room" that goes wrong. Maurice Heems' "Chimera", another world premiere, co-production USA / United Arab Emirates / India, a story about immortality and ethics, the theme of this year's festival focus.
