A cultural haven in one of the most deprived areas in the UK, this is a distinctive, funny and intimate portrait of the North, its men and the irreplaceable role music plays in our lives.STRANDSound It OutPREMIERE TYPEMatthew Bate/Australia/2011/89 minFRI 17 JUNE 22:15 FILMHOUSE 2SAT 18 JUNE 17:30 FILMHOUSE 2PRICE: £9.00 (£7.50 CONC)Or, how two noisy neighbours became a cult phenomenon.When college buddies Eddie Guerriero and Mitch Deprey moved into their first San Francisco apartment and they heard their new neighbours arguing, they did what anyone would do - they surreptitiously recorded them! The arguments were so abusive, horrendous, hilarious and profane, the tapes they made and distributed amongst friends went viral and took on a life of their own. Matthew Bate's funny and deceptively astute documentary explores some big issues around privacy, voyeurism, copyright and exploitation.Shut Up Little Man! An Audio MisadventureDOCUMENTARY - INTERNATIONALJOINT UK PREMIERENOKIA SHORTS WEEKENDERShorts programme/110 minTHU 23 JUNE 16:00 GEORGE SQ THEATREPRICE: £6.00 (£5.00 CONC)Scottish shorts - some brand new, some you've seen before.Scotland's rich and successful heritage of short filmmaking has collected awards and featured at festivals across the globe. Titles have dealt with important social issues and many have offered moments of surprising hilarity, clearly exemplified in this selection. Whether it's the laugh out loud humour of David Cairns' wonderful Cry For Bobo, or the subtle humour of Blyth Duff's delivery in Patrick Harkins' Sarajevo, this programme of Scottish shorts shows Scotland's sense of humour is alive and wellScottish ShortsPERSPECTIVESJerzy Skolimowski/UK/1978/85 minCast: Alan Bates, John Hurt, Susannah YorkSUN 26 JUNE 13:00 FILMHOUSE 3PRICE: £6.00 (£5.00 CONC)Skolimowski's acclaimed, garlanded British adaptation of a Robert Graves' short story, is his most unabashedly surreal work.The mysterious Crosseley Alan Bates insinuates himself into the quiet Devonshire lives of the young hospitable Fieldings (Susannah York and John Hurt), in this 1978 Cannes Grand Prix du Jury winner, only the second feature produced by legendary Brit Jeremy Thomas. Crossley's claim of having learned from an aboriginal shaman a 'terror shout' that can kill instantly intrigues Anthony Fielding, an experimental composer. This film was programmed by Alan Warner, one of EIFF 2011's guest curators.The Shout All That Heaven Allows39THIS SEPTEMBER DON'T MISS...

'Ghost whisperer' and government agent Hayley Sands is sent to investigate the entity, but her arrival triggers a series of horrific events culminating in an intensely chilling and utterly brutal denouement. This UK independent horror delivers heart-pounding tension and nerve-shredding shocks in equal measure.StormhousePERSPECTIVESJim Jarmusch/USA,Germany/1984/89 minCast: John Lurie, Eszter Balint, Richard Edson, Cecillia Stark, Danny RosenTHU 16 JUNE 15:30 FILMHOUSE 1PRICE: £6.00 (£5.00 CONC)Super indie deadpan comedy about America, as seen through the eyes of strangers. Jazz musician John Lurie stars as a down-on-his-luck-loser and self-styled New York hipster who is shaken from his mundane and directionless existence by the surprise and quite unwelcome arrival of his sixteen-year-old Hungarian cousin (Eszter Balint). Jarmusch's 1982, 30 minute short version of the film 'The New World' was shown at EIFF that year. Jim Jarmusch and Sara Driver are guest curators of the EIFF 2011.Stranger Than ParadiseFEATURES - INTERNATIONALUK PREMIERECeline Sciamma/France/2011/81 minCast: Zoé Héran, Malonn Lévana, Jeanne Disson, Sophie Cattani, Mathieu DemyTHU 16 JUNE 17:45 CAMEO 1TUE 21 JUNE 21:15 CAMEO 1PRICE: £9.00 (£7.50 CONC)Ever wondered what it would be like to switch sex? Laure, 10, does.When Laure arrives at her new neighbourhood in the outskirts of Paris, she ventures outside to meet the local kids. Mistaken for a boy by potential new best friend Lisa, she decides, on the spur of the moment, to give her name as Mikaël. Second-time director Celine Sciamma's striking debut, Water Lilies, marked her as a name to watch, and she doesn't disappoint with another incisive, insightful, though more intimate drama of burgeoning female sexuality.TomboyKornél Mundruczó/Hungary/Germany/ Austria/2010/105 minCast: Rudolf Frecska, Kitty Csíkos, Kornel Mundruczo, Lili Monori, Miklos SzekelyTHU 16 JUNE 20:10 FILMHOUSE 3FRI 17 JUNE 19:45 FILMHOUSE 3PRICE: £9.00 (£7.50 CONC)There are other ways to create a monster.No stranger to EIFF, Kornél Mundruczó (Pleasant Days EIFF 2002, Johanna EIFF 2005) returns with his 'reimagining' of (the second half of) Mary Shelley's famous novel. His 'monster', though, is a boy: an orphan, recently arrived in a wintry, contemporary Budapest in search of those who 'created' him. Rejected anew, and at large in a world of emotions he cannot begin to comprehend, he lashes out. This is a bold, visually striking (both in its cinematography and locations), dark and chilling film.Tender Son: The Frankenstein ProjectFEATURES - INTERNATIONALUK PREMIERE |
