Cosima Von Bonin's work is deeply rooted in popular culture and cinematography. She and her friends curated a screening program of iconic movies that relate to her works, both literally and metaphorically. One short film and one feature film will be screened at each session, with films by directors such as Jean Painlevé, Pier Paolo Pasolini, or João Pedro Rodrigues.
Join us for a Sunday afternoon movie in Mudam's auditorium, to enjoy a screening and visit our "Songs for Gay Dogs" exhibition!
Short film: "L'hippocampe" (1934) by Jean Painlevé,
The seahorse is the only fish that moves vertically. It is also one of the rare animals whose male receives the eggs deposited by the female in a uterine-like pouch and actually gives birth to its offspring, rolling its eyes as a sign of suffering.
In order to film at the bottom of the Garonne estuary, Painlevé engineered the first mobile unsinkable camera. This film, accompanied by music by Darius Milhaud, shows the life of this strange underwater animal with precision and humour.
Feature film: "O FANTASMA" (2000) by João Pedro Rodrigues,
Brooding, alienated Sergio works as a trash collector in Lisbon. At night, he roams the city streets seeking rough, anonymous sex with other men. One night Sergio becomes fascinated with the owner of a sleek motorcycle – a man who seems to be the embodiment of his tormented fantasies.
