There Are Not Thirty-Six Ways of Showing a Man Getting on a Horse(2020)
"Nicolás Zukerfeld’s third feature is a wry, surprising work of filmmaking-as-criticism that begins as a kind of supercut of moments from the work of pantheon Hollywood auteur Raoul Walsh. This rhythmically entrancing parade of images traces a mysterious and amusing arc across the director’s vast oeuvre—but at the halfway mark, the film reinvents itself as an idiosyncratic, essayistic investigation into memory, cinema, and their shared mutability." - NYFF

Yury Khovansky: Old Main Jokes(ru)
This is a little over an hour of sloppy, often endless, but very well told jokes on deliberately understandable topics. Summer camps, tobogganing, seeing off to the army, TV series on the recommendation of friends, 5D cinemas, pedophiles, smoking spice, and the crown of all is the joke about "fucking quarks" that "revolve on subatomic levels."

Beyond Gay: The Politics of Pride(en)
Over the course of a year, film follows Vancouver Pride Society president Ken Coolen to various international Pride events, including Poland, Hungary, Russia, Sri Lanka and others where there is great opposition to pride parades. In North America, Pride is complicated by commercialization and a sense that the festivals are turning away from their political roots toward tourism, party promotion and entertainment. Christie documents the ways larger, more mainstream Pride events have supported the global Pride movement and how human rights components are being added to more established events. In the New York sequence, leaders organize an alternative Pride parade, the Drag March, set up to protest the corporatization of New York Pride. A parade in São Paulo, the world's largest Pride festival, itself includes a completely empty float, meant to symbolize all those lost to HIV and to anti-gay violence.
