Sinopse

ĀTMAN is a visual tour-de-force based on the idea of the subject at the centre of the circle created by camera positions (480 such positions). Shooting frame-by-frame the filmmaker set up an increasingly rapid circular motion. ĀTMAN is an early Buddhist deity often connected with destruction; the Japanese aspect is stressed by the devil mask of Hangan, from the Noh, and by using both Noh music and the general principle of acceleration often associated with Noh drama.

It's a confrontation between a couple: he demands to know what's wrong, she challenges his sexual orientation. Cameras shoot the exchange, and another camera records Greaves and his crew. Sometimes we watch the crew discussing this scene, its language, and the process of making a movie. Is there such a thing as natural language? Are all things related to sex? The camera records distractions - a woman rides horseback past them; a garrulous homeless vet who sleeps in the park chats them up. What's the nature of making a movie?
Pistol Ópera
Miyuki Minazuki, apelidada de “Gata de Rua,” é a “Número 3” no Sindicato de Assassinos. Ela mora com sua avó, e sua arma preferida é uma pistola. Gata de Rua recebe suas ordens de Sayoko Uekyo, uma mulher enigmática de vestido branco. Ela parece confortável com sua posição no ranking, mas a rivalidade se intensifica quando o misterioso “Número 1,” apelidado de “100 Olhos,” começa a atacar os outros assassinos que estão no topo da hierarquia. Quando Sayoko informa Gata de Rua de que 100 Olhos agora é um alvo para o Sindicato, surge a oportunidade para matá-lo e assumir o primeiro lugar. Espécie de remake e continuação de A Marca do Assassino (Goro Hanada, protagonista em 1967, é agora “Número 0,” um conselheiro de Gata de Rua), o filme aplica o estilo tardio de Suzuki à matriz dos filmes de gângster que ele fazia na Nikkatsu, resultando num painel delirante de cores e ritmos, um balé ou uma ópera de sedução e morte.
Cremaster 5
Cremaster 5 (55 min, 1997) is a five-act opera (sung in Hungarian) set in late-ninteenth century Budapest. The last film in the series, Cremaster 5 represents the moment when the testicles are finally released and sexual differentiation is fully attained. The lamenting tone of the opera suggests that Barney invisions this as a moment of tragedy and loss. The primary character is the Queen of Chain (played by Ursula Andress). Barney, himself, plays three characters who appear in the mind of the Queen: her Diva, Magician, and Giant. The Magician is a stand-in for Harry Houdini, who was born in Budapest in 1874 and appears as a recurring character in the Cremaster cycle.
