DIRECTOR: ROY ANDERSSON
SWEDEN
Intertwining a series of seemingly unrelated events surrounding a wide cast of characters, You, the Living portrays human flailing for self-fulfillment in a surreal world. As in his critically acclaimed Songs From the Second Floor, Andersson uses a sardonic, starkly formalistic technique to create a series of 50 visually ingenious, cleverly choreographed and frequently uproarious vignettes of modern life—"what you might get if Jacques Tati's Monsieur Hulot wandered into the moody existential vistas of Andrei Tarkovsky!"—Sight and Sound. "A strong contender for the accolade of funniest film in the Festival."—London Film Festival. This year's Swedish submission for the Best Foreign Film Oscar. Print courtesy of the Swedish Film Institute. ( 92 min )
Filmography: A Swedish Love Story (70), Giliap (75), Songs From the Second Floor (00).
Door tickets ONLY available for the screening 7PM screening on February 8th. Advance tickets are still availabe for the other screenings.
