Three Circles of Hell
Halloween with Gaspar Noé
-
Ready to lose yourselves in the Halloween madness?
- U–jazdowski cinema invites you to the scariest evening of the year: a journey into the depths of cinematic hell by the master of French extreme Gaspar Noé. A filmmaker who may frighten, shock or delight by bluntly exposing evil: not the one lurking in dark alleys, but the evil deep inside each of us. What happens when it reaches the surface and takes control?

- We will begin our hypnotic journey into the depths of hell from the circle of the fading mind, which – like a labyrinth – magnifies the feeling of loneliness and loss. It imprisons and destroys, not with a sudden blow but with a slow erosion, strong enough to suffocate the greatest will to live and the strongest human relationships.

- 19:00
- Climax
- directed by Gaspar Noé, France / Belgium 2018, 90'
- The second circle is ‘techno hell’ in the form of a psychedelic Danse Macabre. The film, drawing from body horror, talks about urges and primal instincts that, when released from the leash of a sober mind, lead to inevitable disaster.

- Lux Æterna
- directed by Gaspar Noé, France 2019, 51'
- Our journey through hell will end with a total letting go of the brakes in a story filled with dark humour about behind-the-scenes film production, where the participants find that there is a fine line between control and chaos. A demonic tale of madness and humiliation accompanied by the screams of witches being burned at the stake. Hell in its purest form. Will it bring expiation?
