DANS LE LABYRINTHE

Series Site

“Dans Le Labyrinthe,” which derives its title from a novel by master of narrative games Alain Robbe-Grillet, is a program exploring the myriad ways filmmakers have used the formal properties of their medium to construct cinematic variants of the labyrinth, manifolds of time and space which lure the spectator along their winding corridors and branching paths. Each work in the series, curated by Sam Ishii-Gonzales and Jaime Levinas, offers its own distinct approach, and not all of them offer a clear exit. Their intricate twists and turns are the source of both their pleasure and their danger. The deeper you go, the more is revealed—and the further you may be from ever finding your way home. With films by David Lynch, Anocha Suwichakornpong, Bi Gan, Alain Resnais, and other expert maze-builders, getting lost has never looked so alluring as it does here.
