Auteurs Abridged: New Shorts by Masters (MIFF Shorts)
Established feature directors return to the short form to play with time and experiment with structure.
From sonic triptychs to literal sketches within the frame to a whole tale of forbidden love reunited – dive into Pedro Almodóvar’s highly anticipated queer western starring Pedro Pascal and Ethan Hawke; Lucrecia Martel’s Venice-premiering interrogation of class, labour and gendered violence; a glimpse of Jean-Luc Godard’s final work before his death; and films both scintillating and succinct from Pedro Costa and Tsai Ming-liang.
Films in this package: As Filhas do Fogo (dir. Pedro Costa), Camarera de Piso (dir. Lucrecia Martel), Strange Way of Life (dir. Pedro Almodóvar), Trailer of the Film That Will Never Exist: 'Phony Wars' (dir. Jean-Luc Godard) and Where do you stand, Tsai Ming-liang? (dir. Tsai Ming-liang).
