Retrospective Iva Radivojevic : Imaginary Landscapes of Dislocation

Aleph Iva Radivojevic

Loosely based on the literature of Jorge Luis Borges, this labyrinthine film distances itself from rational writing, distorting boundaries to shape a space-time continuum that follows its own poetic logic. Protagonists from five continents take charge of a sprawling narrative that constantly changes hue, while retaining an astonishing uniqueness. Situated somewhere between magic realism and documentary, this equally unusual and delightful work is both demanding and generous. (HSB)

This film is presented as part of the Retrospective Iva Radivojevic: Imaginary Landscapes of Dislocation.

Presented with the support of Critical Media Lab McGill and McGill Refugee Research Group
