- Excerpt: There’s no sentimentality in [Robert] Bresson’s portrait of village life but, for a few brief moments the film explodes in energy and emotion.
Nightfall (1956)
Sean Axmaker @ Stream On Demand

Through the Olive Trees (1994)
- Excerpt: Kiarostami has said he saw his job as making half of a movie, leaving the audience to create the other half.
Tih-Minh (1919)
