Who let the dogme out ?? Our fingers are aimed squarely at returning pals PARKER AND FLYNN of Sydney’s @underground.film.collective !! they let the dogme out !!

Inspired by Lars von Trier and Thomas Vinterberg’s ‘Vows of Chastity’ and how they can inform rawer, truer, more POWERFUL cinema, we get into the first (and probably best??) movie made in accordance with the Dogme 95 manifesto: Vinterberg’s dark, funny and provocative family reunion drama FESTEN/THE CELEBRATION.

No script, lighting, non-diegetic music, ‘superficial action’ allowed !! Real shit only !!! Remembering David Stratton !!! Discussing the crabs-in-a-bucket phenomenon! Incredible conversational segues ! And ya maybe everybody didn’t watch second pick JULIEN DONKEYBOY, Harmony Korine’s crack at Dogme glory, but isn’t that so profoundly Dogme yknow ? Let the chaos wash over you like your seventh red wine at a disastrous family event…
