The Cannes Directors’ Fortnight section has unveiled its lineup for the 2024 festival, which will open with This Life of Mine, the final feature from the late French director Sophie Fillières. The drama features Agnès Jaoui as a woman whose identity starts to unravel when she turns 55. Fillières died shortly after wrapping principal photography on the film and her children finished post-production.

Considering that the majority of South and South East Asian countries are quite conservative when it comes to the presentation of eroticism on cinema (even more so regarding nudity), the number of films that have sensualism as their key element is not exactly huge, at least when compared to European cinema for example. However, Japan and S. Korea do produce a number of this type of movies, even within their censhorship laws, while a number of other countries also have their entries in the category. Also of note is a recent trend that has begun within the Japanese movie industry, of presenting erotic films that try to cater to the aesthetics of both men and women, while abiding by the MeToo rules, with the result being interesting as much as ambitious.

Udine – After the revolutionary digital edition last summer, the Far East Film Festival in Udine goes back to its origins, compatibly – it does not even need to be emphasized – with the dynamics, priorities and rules of the health emergency. From 11 to 19 June, therefore, the Teatro Nuovo “Giovanni da Udine” will reopen its doors to the best of Asian popular cinema. And the second historic venue of the festival will also reopen its doors to the East: the Visionary cinema, newly restored and expanded.
In short: we can officially trigger the countdown for a new, precious and (certainly) adventurous full immersion in the heart of cinematic Asia: Hong Kong, China, Taiwan, South Korea, Japan, Philippines, Singapore, Indonesia and Malaysia! Feff 23 chosed to match the announcement with a splendid illustration by Martina Sobacchi. It is a frame from In the “Mood for Love”, a legendary love story – the one told by Wong...
