THE WHOLE RANKINGS FOR THINGS SEEN FROM 20-25 JULY 2007

IN PREFERENTIAL ORDER

1.CRY IN SILENCE (2006, J. G. Biggs, A+)
This film is like an unblinking look at hell.

2.LOOK OF LOVE (2006, Yoshiharu Ueoka, Japan, A+)
This film makes me laugh the most since I saw WHAT HAPPENED TO MAGDALENA JUNG (1983, Christoph Schlingensief, Germany, A+) late last year.

3.BEFORE WE FALL IN LOVE AGAIN (2006, James Lee, Malaysia, A+)
I like the unnaturalness and unromanticness of this film very much.


4.A WANDERING BRIDE (2006, Ana Katz, Argentina, A+)
I feel as if I was the protagonist of this film.

5.THE BIRD HOUSE (2006, Khoo Eng Yow, Malaysia, A+)
I like the relationship between brothers in this film very much.

6.HUNT ANGELS (2006, Alec Morgan, Australia, A+)
This film reminds me of Guy Maddin.

7.OUR DAILY BREAD (2005, Nikolaus Geyrhalter, Austria, A+)
I like the mine scene in this film very much.

8.BLED NUMBER ONE (2006, Rabah Ameur-Zaimeche, Algeria, A+)
What touches me the most is the plight of women in this film.


9.THE HOME SONG STORIES (2007, Tony Ayres, Australia, A+)
This film makes me cry the most in the festival. What makes me cry is not the relationship between mother and son, but how the son chose to call someone “father”.
