Another peek at lineup of SummerIFF16 - DOCUMENTARIES
SummerIFF16 presents documentaries from around the world. From the West, we have Stig BJÖRKMAN’s INGRID BERGMAN IN HER OWN WORDS, a fascinating look behind the scenes of the remarkable and sometimes controversial life of the woman who became one of the most celebrated Swedish actresses of American and world cinema.
Director Andreas JOHNSEN’s surprisingly tasty documentary BUGS follows chef Ben READE and researcher Josh EVANS of the Nordic Food Lab as they travel the globe, sampling edible insects as part of a study on alternative food sources. Can eating bugs save the world?
From the East, the festival brings the outstanding rockumentary, WE ARE X, a story on X Japan and its co-founder, drummer and leader Yoshiki. The film won the World Cinema Documentary Special Jury Award for Best Editing at Sundance this year. Another Japanese documentary, THE SION SONO, is directed by OSHIMA Arata, son of the legendary OSHIMA Nagisa. The film’s subject SONO Sion is one of the most controversial and prolific authors, poets and film directors in Japan.
Full programme will be announced on 25 July, tickets available from 27 July onwards.
