Overview:
A children's film about the largest mass suicide of the 20th century reconstructs the 1978 event. The Reverend Jim Jones forced nearly a thousand followers of his People's Temple sect to drink poison in the settlement of Jonestown, Guyana, South America. A third of them were children. Jan Bušta gives sadists, voyeurs, and necrophiliacs one minute to leave the cinema. His self-reflective documentary, which is the result of ten years of time-lapse filming, does not depict dramatic scenes. To the sound of an audio recording from that fateful day, we see a collage of child ghosts preaching about escaping the corruption of the world.

A Sad, Sad Ghost Picking at the Hairs of Their Knuckles(en)
2023-01-31
A wandering young woman explores the crevices of her apartment, of her corporeal creases, as well as the shadows made up of those things. Through her journey, she comes into contact with fellow vagrancies: a nondescript man of around similar age; a young girl with similar, even familiar, eyes; streets that can only exist during those brief moments of glazing stares. The rain comes and goes, but the A/C never turns off.

Since the day I was born(es)
2020-12-30
Since the day I was born is composed through a reflection on remorse and the search for mental liberation from the death of the individual. In the short film, barely two minutes long, an anonymous man remembers all the moments in which he has failed in the game of life; moments in which he has made mistakes, or has chosen the wrong option, harming someone close to him or himself, while his body hangs from a rope and is little by little deprived of oxygen. He regrets what he has experienced since the day he was born, but he also regrets the drastic decision he has just made.
