Filmklubben Sandgatan 8 för att se och diskutera film hos Dominikanerna på Sandgatan 8 i Lund.  Vi ser filmer som kan ge underlag för reflektion, filmer som är gjorda med engagemang. Det vi söker är inte film med “budskap” eller ren underhållning, men film som närmar sig världen med nyfikenhet och öppen blick.
Bra film kan fördjupa perpektiven. Där finns det som inte går att förklara, människans och världens mysterium, alla lager av verklighet. En sanning, gömd i den vanliga världen, kan framträda in te minst i de diskussioner som följer på varje film. Under några år har vi sett film bland annat av Andrei Tarkovsky, Robert Bresson, Hirokazo Kore-eda,  Ingmar Bergman, Erik Rohmer, Bo Widerberg, Debra Granik, Kelly Reickhardt och  andra. Vi blandar “svårare” och “enklare” filmer, svenskt och annat - alltid med engelsk undertext.
Höst och vår har vi under en följd av år anordnat FilmDagar med ett valt tema, ett bra tillfälle att se flera filmer av en regissör och gå in och undersöka hans värld.

Programansvariga för Filmklubben 2025-26 är Magnus Ingvarsson, Viggo Johnsson, Daniel Markus, Daniel Lange, Mina Nesic och Björn Engdahl, dominikanbroder.

Alltid introduktion före och samtal efter filmen, vanligtvis på engelska/ Always introduction before the film and discussion afterwards

Taxi Tehran to Tuscany  - Ride with Kiarostami

Comparing his films to poems rather than novels, he has created admiration as well as frustration amongst his audience with works where the understanding of the narrative can seem to shift with every viewing. Kiarostami’s most recurring motif is of two people talking in a car. It is a relatable scene to many of us. With Kiarostami however, a certain strangeness becomes apparent - we don’t see the road or the outside landscape, becoming aware that we are only entreated to part of the image and in extension only part of the characters’ lives. 

Abbas Kiarostami edited his Palme d’Or-winning A Taste of Cherry only at night—the sole time state-owned film equipment was made available to him. One of the few Iranian filmmakers who remained after the 1979 Islamic Revolution, Kiarostami has stated “When you take a tree that is rooted in the ground and transfer it from one place to another, the tree will no longer bear fruit. […] I think if I had left my country I would be the same as the tree.” Kiarostami began filmmaking in Iran in the late ’1960s. Long overlooked abroad, he gained recognition around 1990, his international breakthrough paving the way for Iranian cinema to reach a global audience. 

Curiosity is enhanced further as the films often center on bizarre choices such as that of a man posing as a famous director, another seeking strangers’ help without explaining what act he wants them to perform. Are these puzzles to be solved or mysteries to contemplate? This fall you too can get along for the ride across both Tehran and Tuscany.  Viggo Johnsson, Filmklubben

MORE FILMS IN AUTUMN

Insurrection

Insurrection, ressurection. Are they far from each other? Insurrection, Anastasias in greek takes the two meanings in one word.
Insurrection how?
A ressurection where values are turned out side in by the Gospel, where a new brotherhood imitates Christ? Saint Francis made a cultural revolution, a new way of living in happy poverty and communion.
A revolt where people plans to overthrow the foreign rulers in terrorist?  Shanghai in the 40ies, Japanese rule.
The earth herself rebelling. The creation demands justice and peace. The arborigene Dream, the talking livning earth

FRIDAY DECEMBER 
SOLARIS
by Andrei Tarkovsky, USSR 1972, 2h 47 min, starring Donatas Banionis, Natalya Bondarchuk, Anatoly Solinitsyn
To its form scifi, or perhaps anti-scifi; as for substance, about longing and the construction of memories. Meditative and intriguing, it has inspired several advanced American attempts, and also a remake. Still no movie in the genre has surpassed the complexity offered here. What is happening? And to whom? What is Solaris?

 -since we had technical problems last time we had Solaris in the program, we invite all to participate without membership this time.

FRIDAY NOVEMBER 14TH
