Life Is a Dream: The Films of Raúl Ruiz (Part 2)


Arguably Chile’s most internationally renowned and prolific filmmaker, Raúl Ruiz completed over one hundred films in numerous national cinemas. His mind-bending works are obsessed with questions of theology, philosophy, psychoanalysis, literature, and visual expression; wildly experimental and slyly humorous; surrealist, magical realist, gothic, and neo-Baroque. This is the second part of an ongoing retrospective devoted to Ruiz, including a weeklong revival run of a new digital restoration of one of his most beloved films, Time Regained (1999).

New York: Feb. 9 - 18 at Film Society of Lincoln Center.
