The 2016 Sci-Fi Film Festival, Wednesday, October 19-Sunday, October 23, The Ritz Cinema, Randwick. "Good job, son. I'm very proud of you. Now, what's your next job?" These were the words that master director, Ridley Scott, offered his son, Luke, upon seeing his debut feature film, Morgan. Coming from the famously terse director of Blade Runner and Alien "“ two cornerstones of the sci-fi genre "“ that's high praise indeed. And it's well deserved too. A chilling, keenly intelligent meld of horror and sci-fi in which mad science leads to violence and terror, Morgan will appropriately bring The 2016 Sci-Fi Film Festival to a close, with the fest opening with the Ridley Scott-produced Equals. A cerebral chiller that announces a dazzling new filmmaking talent, Morgan "“ which stars Kate Mara, Anya Taylor-Joy, Rose Leslie, Paul Giamatti, Toby Jones, Jennifer Jason Leigh, and Michelle Yeoh "“ will still be rattling around in your head long after the credits have rolled. @scififilmfest
Opening, 21.10.2016, 6pm. Territories of Commitments at BERLINARTPROJECTS is the first in a series of exhibitions on current photography: Greetings From Now On. This edition brings together the probing work of six Istanbul-based artists, showing how they negotiate and interact with the space which they inhabit "“ the rapidly expanding Turkish metropolis, conflicted and divided through the current complex urban and societal context and the significant recent changes that the city has been undergoing at one of the crossroads of global conflicts and migration crisis. A storage system based on geolocalisation as a tribute to family memory; abandoned houses and the traces of presence left behind; views of contemporary « flâneurs » in urban space, figuring the crisis; throwing spears to signify the involvement of an artist fighting for individuality in the local and global art market or reactivating archive slides of an environmental NGO.
