This Land is Mine | This Land is Me
Watching the world go by on film.
Overview
When you're watching Max, Furiosa and company race across a parched desert in search of water in Mad Max: Fury Road, Icelandic brothers fight over livestock in Rams, and a robot sort through trash in Wall-E, you're not only becoming immersed in their stories — you're becoming immersed in their environment as well. As Chris Evans works his way up a packed locomotive in Snowpiercer, Reese Witherspoon goes on quite the trek in Wild, and Matt Damon and Casey Affleck get lost in Gerry, you're doing the same as well.
The Gallery of Modern Art's latest film program — This Land is Mine | This Land is Me — wants you to think about this. And, honestly, when you're getting cinematic glimpses of indigenous dance in Spear, snowy peril in Sherpa, animated oceans in Song of the Sea and island-logged people in Studio Ghibli co-production The Red Turtle, how can you think about anything else?
From a trio of Terrence Malick's looks at man and the world around him (aka The Tree of Life, The New World and Days of Heaven) to iconic classics such as Baraka, Stalker and Zabriskie Point, the list goes on. And, not only does all of this movie-inspired musing take over GOMA's Australian Cinematheque from December 3, 2016 to February 26, 2017, but it's free as well.
