Trailer Synopsis Cast

After his wife is killed in a hit-and-run accident by a mysterious Hooded Man, Theoretical Physicist Dylan Brandt builds a Quantum Suicide Machine to jump through parallel universes to find another version of his wife. Based on the ancient Greek myth of Orpheus and Eurydice, where a man storms of the Gates of Hades to return his wife to the land of the living, Dylan transverses infinite worlds of the Multi-verse to find his wife. But with every jump, Dylan is thwarted by the efforts of the mysterious Hooded Man, until the rules of physics completely break down, threatening to destroy the universe and everything in it.

Vienna’s Prater is an amusement park and a desire machine. No mechanical invention, no novel idea or sensational innovation could escape incorporation into the Prater. The diverse story-telling in Ulrike Ottinger’s film “Prater” transforms this place of sensations into a modern cinema of attractions. The Prater’s history from the beginning to the present is told by its protagonists and those who have documented it, including contemporary cinematic images of the Prater, interviews with carnies, commentary by Austrians and visitors from abroad, film quotes, and photographic and written documentary materials. The meaning of the Prater, its status as a place of technological innovation, and its role as a cultural medium are reflected in texts by Elfriede Jelinek, Josef von Sternberg, Erich Kästner and Elias Canetti, as well as in music devoted to this amusement venue throughout the course of its history.

Spettacolo
Once upon a time, villagers in a tiny hill town in Tuscany came up with a remarkable way to confront their issues: they turned their lives into a play. Every summer, their piazza became their stage and residents of all ages played a part – the role of themselves. Monticchiello’s annual tradition has attracted worldwide attention and kept the town together for 50 years, but with an aging population and a future generation more interested in Facebook than farming, the town’s 50th–anniversary performance just might be its last. SPETTACOLO tells the story of Teatro Povero di Monticchiello, interweaving episodes from its past with its modern-day process as the villagers turn a series of devastating blows into a new play about the end of their world.

it is finally so absorbing because it plays like a lyrical road odyssey that’s also a detective story.

This movie has an interesting plot, but it has been done many times before and a lot better, even with the same ending revelation.My main problem with this movie, assuming it is not a different version, is the ludicrous voice of the very old Asian professor, which sounds like a Caucasian teenager. My family and I (including our youngest son and daughter) could not stop laughing at how it simply did not work. I am not sure why they did this as they could at least have gotten an older male to dub the voice in.The other problem is that, halfway through, I ended up wondering which scene would be repeated next, as the second half is just a literal repeat of the first half, but from a different viewpoint, that is, the other version of the main character, and then there are many versions of him which just gets a bit silly at the end. This subtracts greatly from the movie, as you already know what is coming, even the end, which is the same as other movies with this plot.Still, it is interesting enough to warrant a 6, I think.

Just watched this on Steam, and I gotta say it was pretty trippy. I knew he was the hooded man from the start, but that didn't bother me. There's about a thousand things that happen that make this film a real wild ride for sure. I don't watch a lot of Science films, so I can't really say how this measures up int he genre, but it really kept my attention and made me want to discuss it more. I'm gonna watch it a couple more times before my rental expires, but there is a lot going on with this film. It's definitely a thinking man's film, so I can see why some people might not get it or like it, but if you're a science buff and love subtle yet thought provoking tales, high recommend!

I really enjoyed this film. It's up there on the philosophical and intellect spectrum so not everyone is going to get it, but if you like films that require a great deal of thinking, it's right up your alley. It is low budget, but looks way better than most of the low budget films I've seen like Pi and Primer that reminded me of it. I actually watched this several times, because it's the type of film that sticks with you and leaves you thinking about it long after you've seen it the first time. If you are a science fiction lover and enjoy the "thinking man's film", then this film is for you. This is the first movie I've seen about the quantum suicide machine, but I did a great of deal research on it after watching it. I was very impressed at how the film took the subject matter and was able to combine it into a really heart felt love story. Highly recommend checking it out if you can find it!

An OK'ish low budget sci-fi movie with an somewhat interesting premise that involves parallel universes and it's the first movie I have seen that uses the quantum suicide machine. The parallel universes weren't handled in the way that many world's theory suggest's so that was a disappointment. The visual effects and cgi are pretty bad, but understandable given the low budget of the movie. The acting is poor, especially the Asian professor. The movie isn't completely trash however. There are some interesting moment's and set pieces (if you want to call it that), but overall I would not recommend it.4/10
