Asian Movie Night x KloosterKino

As autumn paints our eyes with shades of yellow and leaves wrap us in a cozy blanket, this September, Asian Movie Night is teaming up with KloosterKino to bring you the special shorts program 'Monologue of Dreams'. This program explores the complex and universal themes portrayed by the lens of Asian storytellers. Through this journey, we will delve into symbolic and surreal elements, address the omnipresence of power dynamics, and engage in the discussion about the sense of belongings and self-healing, in collective and captivating ways.

Monologue of Dreams, co-curated by Minhong YU and Maarten van Gageldonk, features 8 diverse works from South Korean, China, Japan, Iran and Armenia, such as Sensor Ship (2021, KR), The Song of Flying Leaves (2023, IR/AM), Bird in the Peninsula (2022, JP/FR), A Dog Under a Bridge (2022, CN), It's a Gray, Gray World (2022, IN), Persona (2022, KR), Mui (2021, CN) and I'm Late (2021, JP/FR). All films are screened in their original language with English subtitles.
