Dictator: One Crazy Job
★ 6.5
Dictator: One Crazy Job2013Documentary

They’ve become the human face of inhuman barbarity. Leaders like Hitler, Idi Amin Dada, Stalin, Kim Jong Il, Saddam Hussein, Nicolae Ceausescu, Bokassa, Muammar Kadhafi, Khomeini, Mussolini and Franco governed their countries completely cut off from reality. These paranoid leaders were driven to abuse their power by the pathology of power itself. Dictators are driven by a relentless, thought-out determination to impose themselves as infallible, all-knowing and all-powerful beings. But they are also men ruled by their caprices, uncontrollable impulses, and reckless fits of frenzy, which paradoxically render them as human as anyone else. The abuses they committed were clearly atrocious, yet some of them were as outlandish as the characters portrayed in the film The Dictator. They sunk to depths worthy of Kafka: so incredibly absurd, they are outrageously funny.

Underpass2025Documentary

Underpass is located at the intersection of material deformations and the genre tropes of horrors and thrillers. The defining event of the second half of the 20th century – the assassination of John Fitzgerald Kennedy, is in the film combined with the creative decomposition of grainy 8mm film. The dread of the initial shock is conveyed by non-figurative scratches and omnipresent eye-like perforations. The internal rhythm was set to recording from a police dictabelt, which captured the global encounter with the real in a similarly unstable vein.
