Remonstrance / Motforestilling Series: 1968: An International Perspective [April 29-May 14] Director: Erik Løchen, Country: Norway, Release: 1972, Runtime: 97 The artistic impact of '68 effected even those countries that did not directly experience social and political upheaval. Norwegian filmmaker Erik Løchen had made The Hunt in 1959, a fascinating, modernist work that paralleled the better-known experiments with cinematic storytelling of Resnais, Godard, Antonioni and others. Løchen returned to feature films in 1972 with an even more radical cinematic experience. The story of a film crew trying to make a political film, Remonstrance brilliantly captures the posing and grandstanding that sometimes accompanies political discussions around correct form in art, but Løchen goes his characters one better. He designed Remonstrance so that its five reels could be shown in any order, rendering 120 possible versions of the film. This screening will be introduced by Joachim Trier, Løchen's grandson and the director of Reprise, one of the highlights of ND/NF 2007 and soon to be released. (The Film Society is screening Reprise on Monday, May 5 at 6:30 p.m.)
