Afternoons of Solitude + Filmmaker Q&A

Name: Afternoons of Solitude + Filmmaker Q&A
Genre: Documentry
Duration: 2 h 5 min

This special screening of Afternoons of Solitude features a post-film pre-recorded conversation with filmmaker Albert Serra and Dr. Daniel Fairfax. A sublime documentary from Albert Serra, Afternoons of Solitude follows celebrated Peruvian matador Andrés Roca Rey through the charged ritual of modern bullfighting. Filmed across Spain’s grandest arenas, Serra captures the ceremony and cruelty of the corrida with his patient, painterly gaze. Moving between the quiet solitude of hotel rooms and the ecstatic violence of the ring, the Catalan filmmaker crafts an unforgettable portrait of man and beast, the mythic and the mortal, theatre and death. At once a harrowing ritual and a hypnotic fantasy, Afternoons of Solitude affirms Serra as one of contemporary cinema’s most fearless and incisive image-makers. Winner of the Golden Shell for Best Film at the San Sebastián Film Festival, and ranked among critics’ Best Films of the Year lists, including the No. 1 spot from Cahiers du Cinéma.DocumentryPT2H5MMA15+
