Subtitled Cinema

We're going to Sweden to watch The Square (2017), directed by Ruben Östlund, a hilarious satire poking fun at the art world and its outlandish conventions. We'll be talking about censorship, distraction, and what it takes to get us to help each other out.

We're headed to France to watch La Haine (1996), directed by Mathieu Kassovitz, a gorgeous black and white crime drama following the lives of three young men in the aftermath of a violent riot. We'll be talking about image, gun violence, and Kassovitz's mind-boggling style. Follow us on Instagram and Twitter @subtitledcinema, and stop by our website subtitledcinema.com for more.
