Κλέφτης ή η πραγματικότητα / Kleftis i I pragmatikotita / Thief or Reality. 2001.

Angelidi's highly theatrical, experimental and allegorical film is divided into three independently existing segments that intertwine because of the involvement of the Thief, the connecting link between the three reality perspectives. The three segments are The Net, The Dice and Free Will, each one representing a philosophical idea and a natural element, (Fate-Fire, Chance-Water, Free Will-Earth), respectively. A sculptress of funereal memorials has visions of the Last Judgment, a mother who lost her son attaches herself to remnants of memory and fantastical visions of encounters, and an actor prepares for Antigone, with fictional reality invading his existential realm. The film explores the different levels of reality that can be experienced: the metaphysical (Death, God and religion), the tangible (love and mother-son relationships), and the externalization of the soul through art (theater and fiction). The Thief stands for Time, as time is a thief and destroys everything.

However, the decision has already been made in our little explorer's mind and on being sent to her room to play she instead grabs her purse and bag in preparation for her important 'mission'.

Du sel sur la peau. 1984. FULL-HD.

The universally recognized topic of this light comedy is the struggle between refusing to fall in love only to be rejected, and falling in love, regardless. After a computer operator (Richard Bohringer) has been through a painful relationship, he is determined to look the other way every time any interesting woman enters his life. He has his other loves -- photography and model planes -- to challenge him anyway, though his mother is not about to understand how a model plane can replace a woman in his life. One day, a car breaks down in front of his house, and a young mother (Catherine Frot) with her 10-year-old daughter (Anne Clignet) come in looking for assistance. The daughter is endearing and would make a terrific subject for a photo contest. As both the young mother and the computer operator studiously ignore the flicker of romantic sparks, it is only a matter of time before the flame either grows or is extinguished.
Director: Jean-Marie Degèsves.
Cast: Michel Bawedin, Liliane Becker, Richard Bohringer, Harry Cleven, Anne Clignet, Catherine Frot, Michel Galabru, Yvette Merlin.

Das unmögliche Bild / The Impossible Picture. 2016. HD.

DE. Wiener Vorstadtidylle Ende der 1950er Jahre, die Mutter sitzt mit ihren zwei ordentlich frisierten Töchtern im Garten. Gesichter, so breit lachend wie die Sonne am Himmel. Der Vater hält den perfekten Familiensonntag mit der 8mm-Kamera fest, dann drückt er seiner Ältesten Johanna (Jana McKinnon) das Gerät in die Hand. „Was siehst’n?“, fragt er sie. „Na, dich.“ Kurz darauf ist er tot, einfach umgekippt. Johanna behält die Kamera.
EN. "Our memory is so unreliable - sometimes what we see might as well be the future." -Johanna F.   What we see is the everyday life of a Viennese family in the 1950's, documented by 13-year-old Johanna, a childhood captured on 8mm film (or: a childhood as it might have been). Fragments of family history and family secrets; an apartment regularly visited by women, more than men, centered around grandmother Maria who holds weekly cooking clubs in her kitchen. But somehow, the women never actually seem to do any cooking - - - "Papa always said you have to be quick if you want to see anything. Because everything vanishes so quickly. But I don't think that's true. I think you just have to keep looking". And Johanna keeps looking. Until the camera's gaze suddenly turns on herself.

Plenilunio / Plenilune / Full Moon. 1999.

ES. Adaptación de una novela de Antonio Muñoz Molina. Tras pasar varios años en las Vascongadas, un inspector de policía es destinado a una pequeña ciudad de provincias. Nada más llegar, debe enfrentarse a un difícil caso: una niña ha aparecido brutalmente asesinada.
EN. A lonely police detective tracks down a crazed child murderer. The movie develops both characters equally well. Most of us would be drawn more to the depiction of the killer as an aberrant type. He is well played as a person lost in his own world, with no friends, selling fresh fish, and drinking alone, unable even to ask for the check at one point, due to his acute inwardness. Our detective discovers the nude body of a young girl in the woods, the work of our killer. Unlike other films of this kind, this one moves (or plods) along at an absorbing pace, giving time for the detective to develop a relationship with an equally lonely school teacher. At one point, while they are making love, the killer is busy with another victim.
