H IS FOR HOUSE
(Peter Greenaway / 1976 / UK / digital / 9 mins / cert pg)
A heartwarming visual poem that evokes the English summer very succinctly, filmed in the country house where his family spent their holidays. Seemingly a record of his daughters childhood, it offers a review of the alphabet told by way of playful association. With all of the attention to detail and wit of Greenaway's later features, it's a treat for any fan.
HUKKLE
(György Pálfi / 2002 / Hungary / 35mm / 75 mins / cert pg)
The work "hukkle" is an attempt to imitate the sound of a hiccup. This is a film all about sound and vision, and has vertually no dialogue making it charmingly universal. It is set in a rural community where life appears to be idilic and casual, yet a sinister mystery begins to emerge from the meditative close-ups and soothing panning shots. A police officer seems to be gathering clues... can you piece together the infomation within the film to solve the mystery? Even if you can't it is still a very satisfying sensory experience with some very surprising cgi inserts.
