In Spring of 1971\, Fusako Shigenobu moved the guerrilla Red Army from Japan to Lebanon to fight for the Palestinian resistance\, and months later filmmakers Masao Adachi and Koji Wakamatsu followed her to record. \n\n\n\nPart explosive agit-prop\, part moody landscape document of a people living in anticipation of violence and revolution\, RED ARMY/PFLP: DECLARATION OF WORLD WAR is perhaps the most notorious newsreel ever made. After its release and self-distribution\, Masao Adachi abandoned film and joined the Red Army himself in Lebanon for 28 years.

But\, when the new house suddenly begins to rot from the inside\, Katsuhiko’s mind deteriorates with it and his family soon join him in their own rapid descent into madness. \n\n\n\nAll notions of what it means to be a normal family are dropped into a blender and warped to hell in Gakuryū Ishii’s classic 1984 deconstruction of the nuclear household. From the cyberpunk godfather of Crazy Thunder Road and August in the Water\, this underrated gem falls somewhere between the masterful work of Yasujirō Ozu and Takashi Miike. \n\n\n\nScreened in Japanese with English subtitles. \n\n\n\n \n Director: Gakuryû Ishii\n Year: 1984\n Country: Japan\n Runtime: 106 minutes URL:https://cstpdx.com/event/the-crazy-family/ CATEGORIES:hanabi ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://cstpdx.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/The-Crazy-Family-poster.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20250818T190000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20250818T210000 DTSTAMP:20260429T005214 CREATED:20250706T052613Z LAST-MODIFIED:20250706T053224Z UID:10001900-1755543600-1755550800@cstpdx.com SUMMARY:Woman in the Dunes DESCRIPTION:Part of the Hanabi Film Festival\, running select days Aug. 18 – 31. Limited festival passes available for access to all films. \n\n\n\nStarting our Hanabi Film Festival is one of the great international art-house sensations. \n\n\n\nAdapted by Kōbō Abe from his 1962 novel of the same name\, Eiji Okada plays an amateur entomologist who has left Tokyo to study an unclassified species of beetle that resides in a remote\, vast desert. When he misses his bus back to civilization\, he is persuaded to spend the night in the home of a young widow (Kyoko Kishida) who lives in a hut at the bottom of a sand dune. What results is one of cinema’s most bristling\, unnerving\, and palpably erotic battles of the sexes\, as well as a nightmarish depiction of everyday Sisyphean struggle anchored by a haunting score from Tōru Takemitsu. \n\n\n\nHiroshi Teshigahara is the first person of Asian descent to be nominated for the Academy Award for Best Director\, and his masterpiece has been hailed by everyone from Andrei Tarkovsky to Roger Ebert as one of the greatest films of all time. \n\n\n\nScreened in Japanese with English subtitles. \n\n\n\n \n Director: Hiroshi Teshigahara\n Year: 1964\n Country: Japan\n Runtime: 147 minutes URL:https://cstpdx.com/event/woman-in-the-dunes/ CATEGORIES:hanabi ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://cstpdx.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/woman-in-the-dunes-poster-scaled.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20250817T180000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20250817T210000 DTSTAMP:20260429T005214 CREATED:20250808T045648Z LAST-MODIFIED:20250808T045704Z UID:10001963-1755453600-1755464400@cstpdx.com SUMMARY:D&D Productions Presents: MELANGE: A QUEER AND P.O.C.

In a rubble-strewn surveillance state where an endless overseas war props up the repressive regime of the all-seeing Big Brother\, and all dissent is promptly squashed\, a profoundly alienated citizen\, Winston Smith (thrillingly played by John Hurt)\, risks everything for an illicit affair with the rebellious Julia (Suzanna Hamilton)\, defiantly asserting his humanity in the face of soul-crushing conformity. Through vividly grim production design and cinematography by Roger Deakins\, director Michael Radford conjures a bleak vision of postwar Britain as fascistic nightmare—a world all too recognizable as our own. \n\n\n\nThis screening will feature the For the Love of Big Brother score by Eurythmics. \n\n\n\n \n Director: Michael Radford\n Year: 1984\n Country: United Kingdom\, Germany\, Netherlands\n Runtime: 110 minutes URL:https://cstpdx.com/event/1984/ CATEGORIES:sci-fi ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://cstpdx.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/1984.jpeg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20250730T190000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20250730T210000 DTSTAMP:20260429T005214 CREATED:20250614T190357Z LAST-MODIFIED:20250614T190358Z UID:10001884-1753902000-1753909200@cstpdx.com SUMMARY:EVENING LAND (Church of Film) DESCRIPTION:A vision of an alternate future: three thousand workers at a shipyard in Copenhagen go on strike\, protesting the building of nuclear vessels for what many suspect is a military complex developing in the European Union. Within one week\, a general strike shuts the country down\, a radical cell kidnaps a foreign minister\, and the authoritarian underpinnings of a bourgeois democracy are laid bare. The politicians\, the workers\, the media\, the police\, the extra-parliamentary guerrillas\, all in close-up. EVENING LAND is Peter Watkins’ (The War Game\, Privilege) disturbing\, paranoid\, and controversial docudrama vision of how quickly a country can spin out from radical positive potential toward chaos and reaction.  URL:https://cstpdx.com/event/evening-land/ ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://cstpdx.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/eveningland.jpeg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20250729T190000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20250729T210000 DTSTAMP:20260429T005214 CREATED:20250423T042831Z LAST-MODIFIED:20250423T042904Z UID:10001832-1753815600-1753822800@cstpdx.com SUMMARY:The Time Masters DESCRIPTION:Directed by visionary science-fiction animator René Laloux (Fantastic Planet) and designed by the legendary Jean Giraud (a.k.a. Mœbius) The Time Masters is a visually fantastic foray into existentialist space adventure.  \n\n\n\nAfter his parents are killed on the dangerous planet Perdide\, young Piel (voiced by Frédéric Legros) survives by maintaining radio contact with Jaffar (Jean Valmont)\, a pilot transporting the exiled Prince Matton (Yves-Marie Maurin) and Princess Belle (Monique Thierry) from their former kingdom. Jaffar seeks the help of Silbad (Michel Elias)\, a cheerful old-timer who knows how to circumvent Perdide’s hazards\, including brain-devouring insects and watery graves. Along the way\, Jaffar and company encounter a pair of impish homunculi stowaways\, identity-less angels controlled by an amorphous hive mind\, and the Masters of Time\, mysterious beings who can bend reality and perhaps reveal to the heroes their secret origins and destinies. \n\n\n\nRestored in 4K in 2023 at the initiative of CITE FILMS in collaboration with the Fondazione Cineteca di Bologna and with the support of the CNC.
