A new phenomenon of authentic Chinese rap has taken the internet by storm. But behind the unprecedented gains in popularity, there is a struggle for freedom of speech. Rappers are trying to figure out what they still can and cannot do after new censorship is announced. In Chongqing, one of China’s biggest cities, surveillance is unavoidable—there are CCTV cameras everywhere. And announcements echo across the vast squares warning that “morally suspect individuals” are banned from speaking in public. It’s not exactly the most stimulating environment for young people looking for something more than just collectivist slogans. They express their artistic resistance against the lack of freedom in their tattoos and underground hip hop. The rappers feel trapped in the immense city. In 20 minutes, David Verbeek guides the viewer through the Chongqing night, offering an atmospheric and rhythmic inside view of a lively subculture. “I just want to write about my own feelings,” says one of our rapper protagonists. “That's all that matters to me.” 'Trapped in the City of a Thousand Mountains' Film: https://www.theguardian.com/world/ng-interactive/2019/jun/14/trapped-in-the-city-of-a-thousand-mountains-video Filmmaker: http://davidverbeek.com--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thedocumentarypodcasts/message

MovieInsiders 282: Interview with the Vampire, Interview met David Verbeek, Dead & Beautiful, Malcolm & Marie

Listen to with David Verbeek and actor Gregoire Colin talk about their new film Full Contact, our disconnect from reality, how silence can be instructive and PTSD.Film SynopsisTrailer hereIMDBA drone operator tries to deal with his guilt after an air strike gone wrong, in this enigmatic drama from Dutch director David Verbeek.The hypnotic new psychological thriller from director David Verbeek is a startling and extremely unsettling look at a modern man caught in a puzzle that may or may not be of his own making. Verbeek presents the audience with a veritable Rubik’s Cube of a movie that is destined to be the subject of much analysis due to its form of storytelling. Each viewer’s response is bound to be different.Full Contact drills into the world — and deep into the psyche — of a drone navigator who, from his base in the Nevada desert, conducts surgical missile strikes against targets in Afghanistan and Pakistan. Maintaining a distance from his targets that is psychological as well as geographic, Ivan (Grégoire Colin) walks away from these daily missions and spends his off-hours in strip clubs. Until, one day, he hits the wrong location, triggering within him a wave of guilt that sends him reeling into the arms of both a military psychologist and a Vegas stripper. But this is just the start of a psychic odyssey that is unpredictable, moving, and illuminating.There’s a force and authority to Full Contact: it’s wonderfully constructed, with vivid photography and impressive, Lynchian transitions that provoke new trains of thought. The filmmaker’s control is of the essence here. Verbeek captures the robotic, depersonalized behaviour of a man who kills people from the safety of a control centre 12,000 kilometres away, which is a challenge in itself. To deconstruct that character’s personality is an even bigger challenge, and Ivan’s mind, his very existence, is brilliantly broken down for us to reassemble in our interpretations. This is an ingenious, provocative work.BiographyGraduated in Directing from Amsterdam’s Film Academy, in 2005. During his second year there, he directed the feature film Beat with a budget of only 500 euro’s. It was selected for the International Film Festival Rotterdam, as well being released on DVD and nationwide in theatres. The following year, he was asked to direct a television film for the VPRO, resulting in the critically acclaimed Yu-Lan.After graduating he left for China, returning three years later with his second feature film Shanghai Trance; a cinematic portrait of Shanghai that depicts a generation of young Chinese, bedazzled by a city that is changing faster than they can grow up. The film was selected for the Tiger Award Competition at the International Film Festival Rotterdam as well as numerous international festivals. It was released in China in over 250 cinemas and in late 2008, David made the front page of the Volkskrant newspaper for being the first Dutch director to achieve this.He shot third feature film in Taiwan, a Dutch/French/co-production. “r u There” is a multi-dimensional experience that comprises 20% Second Life images. It is an exploration of the virtual world in which the younger generation is so deeply immersed. The film got selected to Un Certain Regard in Cannes. Hosted on Acast.
