Two medium length films which explore the relationship between language and possession in politically resonant ways. Roee Rosen’s film Tse confirms his status as one of Israel’s most interesting and provocative experimental filmmakers, forming a link between S/M bondage practices and the policies of Israel’s Minister of Foreign Affairs, Avigdor Lieberman, renowned as one of the most extreme right-wing politicians in the country. Austrian filmmaker Matthias van Baaren’s documentary film The Folds of the King considers simultaneous interpreters, approaching translation from a variety of perspectives, inviting the audience to interrogate linguistics, power, possession and meaning.

Tickets are not required for this event – just turn up!
