Guru Nanak: The Founder of Sikhism - Life and Legacy
Guru Nanak, le fondateur du sikhisme, était un enseignant, poète et activiste du XVe siècle dont le message universel de justice et d’égalité pour tous, d’autonomisation des femmes, de service aux autres et de dévouement à la nature et à l’environnement était en avance sur son temps. Cependant, son histoire est pratiquement inconnue d'une grande partie du monde occidental. Tourné en Inde, au Pakistan et aux États-Unis, ce documentaire mêle l'histoire de la vie de Guru Nanak avec un regard sur la façon dont son héritage spirituel continue d'influencer d'éminents hommes et femmes sikhs américains, y compris le maire Ravi Bhalla de Hoboken, NJ, Grammy Nominé au prix Snatam Kaur, et d'autres.

⭐ 5.0Experiments
de Bruyn uses animation, optical illusions, time lapse, solarization, hand tinting, flash frames, refilming and flicker effects, accompanied by a dense atmosphere of word puns, dialogue, primal screams, music and even recycled and letraseted soundtracks. By setting experiments entirely within his Moonee Ponds house, de Bruyn creates such a complex sense of claustrophobia, the spectator, while recognising the staid, conservative trappings of urban Melbourne, is present with the sort of art neurosis more commonly found in megacities like New York. The principal actor in Experiments is the narrator, whose anarchistic mind ruminates, struggles and screams from relief from the ravages of suburban Moonee Ponds, and the psychological suburbia of his mind... Experiments, its cacophony of images flickering on two screens, throws up everything from schizophrenic madness to baby nappies, inviting you to participate in the cathartic recesses of a personal nightmare.
