Description
Szamanka (The Shaman)Thu, May 3, 7:30pm
Possibly Zulawski’s most deranged effort, which is saying a lot. An anthropology professor meets a nameless student, ostensibly a pizza maker extraordinaire referred to simply as “the Italian.” His escalating obsession with the feral young woman is matched only by his fascination with the body of a perfectly preserved 3,000-year-old shaman. Audacious, mystical, and transgressive and explicit enough to rival Oshima's In the Realm of the Senses, Szamanka culminates in a disturbingly apocalyptic finale. (1996, 100 min, 35mm)
