DON'T WORRY DARLING

Recommended. Written by Katie Silberman and directed by Olivia Wilde. With Florence Pugh, Olivia Wilde, Chris Pine and Dita Von Teese. Much like "The Stepford Wives" but with contemporary technology and taking into account women's position nowadays. It re-invents the memorable science-fiction story.


WARSAW FILM FESTIVAL

The 2022 festival, organized by Warszawska Fundacja Filmowa, showed 88 full-length films, including 28 documentaries, and 68 short films. That's 156 movies in total from 56 countries. Many were world, international or European premieres. The short film competition qualifies films for the Oscars in 4 categories. Years ago WFF had taken place at Atlantic and Palladium so the last year was a return to Atlantic - rooms A, B, C, D and it took rooms 1, 2, 3, 4, meaning the lower level, of Multikino Złote Tarasy. "Я і Фелікс" ( "Rock. Paper. Grenade") was the only Ukrainian production in the main competition. Korean "뉴 노멀" ("New Normal") was made by a director who had previously specialised in horrors.
