Tonislav Hristov’s Love & Engineering is to open the 20th edition of the Visions du Réel documentary film festival.
The film about a Bulgarian computer engineer searching for a formula to create irresistible seductive power for four desperate digital geeks searching for analogue love will open this year’s festival in Nyon, Switzerland tomorrow (April 24). The festival runs from April 25 to May 3.
The German-Finnish-Bulgarian co-production won the Audience Award at DocPoint Helsinki and is set to be screened at Hot Docs Toronto and the Tribeca Film Festival this month.
Nyon’s 2014 edition will see the festival celebrating two anniversaries: in 1969, the Festival international de cinéma Nyon was founded by the later Berlinale director Moritz de Hadeln, and the name change to Visions du Réel was taken by present artistic director Luciano Barisone’s predecessor Jean Perret in 1995
19 feature-length documentaries from 17 countries in the festival’s main competition will be judged by an International Jury comprising UK producer...

9:06 (2009) Direction: Igor Sterk Screenplay: Igor Sterk and Sinisa Dragin Cast: Igor Samobor, Silva Cusin, Labina Mitevska, Jana Zupancic Igor Samobor 9:06 Some movies are hard to write about because they don’t have anything to say. Others are hard to write about because what they’re actually saying is either too complex and/or too muddled to be described in words. For better or for worse, you have to experience it. Igor Sterk’s sober, intriguing 9:06, which screens on Sunday at the South-East European Film Festival of Los Angeles at the Goethe Institut, falls into the latter category.

Rating: 9 out of 10
9:06 is a fascinating and compelling study of psychological transformation, brilliantly represented in the movie’s title, which at first glance may appear to be a sort of numerical half palindrome, but in actuality is a kind of upside down, twisted reflection of itself – and in this case, a potent symbol of how, under certain circumstances, one individual can be drawn into another.
It’s also the time. Twice a day.
Lots of times to die.
But let’s not get ahead of ourselves. 9:06 is ostensibly a fairly simple police mystery story – a man is dead, foul play? -- which director/writer Igor Sterk has dressed up with a complete wardrobe of cool and clever ideas that transforms a death into a study of the amiss and suicide-seeking mind.
