Slowly but surely we are getting to the bottom of what exactly happened at Cannes 2006, this week we take a look at what is perhaps the bleakest film of all time, Bruno Dumont’s FLANDERS. We pair it with a very tonally different recent offering of his, SLACK BAY. Joining us to ponder these extremely extreme movies is comedian and improv teacher WILL HINES! How does Dumont’s portrayal of war land with an audience? What exactly is his festival history? And how do The Klumps enter into all this? All these questions answered, plus the NYFF Main Slate and even more TIFF movies!
