In memory of Jean Ziegler, 1934-2026 JEAN ZIEGLER: THE OPTIMISM OF WILLPOWER (dir. Nicolas Wadimoff) intimately captures Ziegler's battle against poverty for the economic independence of developing countries. Streaming on OVID courtesy @KimStimFilms ovid.tv/videos/jean-ziegler-…
Chargé en 1964 comme jeune communiste d’accompagner Ernesto Guevara à Genève, Jean Ziegler veut le suivre en Amérique latine. Mais le Che lui conseille plutôt de se battre au cœur du système, là où se trouve le cerveau du monstre. «C’est ce que j’ai essayé de faire toute ma vie.»

***ANNOUNCEMENT*** Now available to preorder from the @VinegarSyndrome website and shipping at the end of June on Blu-ray from @ocndistro #PartnerLabel @KimStimFilms: #CrimsonGold (2003)! Two master filmmakers, Abba Kiarostami (A Taste of Cherry) and Jafar Panahi (The Circle, Taxi) team up as writer and director, respectively, on Crimson Gold, a subtle tragedy on class conflict in modern Iran. Hussein (Hossain Emadeddin, a real-life pizza delivery man who has schizophrenia) is a lumbering war veteran swollen by cortisone (for war-induced pain) and reduced to delivering pizzas at night. Through his nightly rounds, he bears witness to the rewards and vanities of the city's wealthy. He is humiliated when a jewelry shop owner won't allow him in his store, and under pressure to get married, Hussein awkwardly aspires to higher ground. When an eccentric socialite gives him a taste of luxury, Hussein can no longer accept his lowly status. Kiarostami based the story on an actual newspaper account of a botched robbery attempt at a Tehranian jewelry store by a desperate pizza deliveryman. directed by: Jafar Panahi starring: Hossein Emadeddin, Azita Hajian, Shahla Riahi 2003 / 95 min / 1.66:1 / Farsi DTS-HD MA 2.0 Additional info: Region A Blu-ray New video interview with writer/director/producer Jafar Panahi Booklet with new writing by historian Sheida Dayani English subtitles Trailer: youtu.be/SDADriMrEls vinegarsyndrome.com/collecti… #BluRay #PhysicalMedia #BluRays #BoutiqueBluRay #CultMovies #DiscConnected #VinegarSyndrome #OCNDistribution #KimStim #KimStimFilms #JafarPanahi

Wonderful news! I actually prefer this to the original, featuring four of my favorite working actors (Bonnard, Almaric, Colin, Nishijima), and Shibasaki Ko is probably better than all of them
