What to Watch Right Now

How to stop the rain, whether god exists: these are among the profound questions that occupy the minds of Alexandru and Ocsy, two schizophrenic patients in the Calugareni Neuropsychiatric Centre in Romania. Throughout the film, the two friends discuss such scientific and philosophical matters as we observe them and their fellow patients going about their strange daily routines, while the centre's nurses are kept out of view. One man happily moves pebbles from left to right, from right to left, day in day out. Another patient lying in his bed stares at colourful projections on the wall, and another spends his time diligently caring for others less physically able than himself. In precisely composed images, accompanied by light piano music and evocative atmospheric sound, the director registers the tiny details of the environment in the institution. A harsh world, far removed from normality, is transformed into the sublime.

Diary of a Times Square Thief documents a journey of discovery: the search for the writer of a mysterious diary that the filmmaker found on Ebay. This manuscript describes the adventures of a young man who, in the late eighties, left the Midwest of the United States to go to New York to realize his big dream: to find a publisher for his work and become a writer. He fails, and the diary gives a frank and confronting account of the author's subsequent downfall. This is where the diary ends; its last pages have been cut out with a knife. Diary of a Times Square Thief consists of small, intimate portraits of some of the colorful characters described in the diary, who could have known its writer. Through these encounters clarity gradually emerges about the fate of the talented but failed author, and about the value of chasing dreams. In addition, the film paints a vivid picture of the world-famous Times Square area when it was still a dramatically brutal urban jungle.
