In my previous Gimme a Beat, I reviewed the 19th edition of Zurich Film Festival.
I have been exploring the female factor of the Zurich Film Festival for several years now. But this year, I had a chance to get together with so many female filmmakers and actresses that I decided to breakdown my review of the ZFF into several shows.
While I've seen 30+ movies during the festival, I haven't reviewed all of them. But the ones that I did, you can find if you follow the search with the following hashtags: #zff #zff2023 #highlight #gimmeabeat.
In tonight's Gimme A Beat, I will be focusing on Las Toreras, a documentary written and directed by Jackie Brutsche, a successful, multifaceted Swiss-Spanish artist.
Seven years in making, Las Toreras documents Jackie's journey of discovering more about her mother, her mother's mental illness and how it affected the family and its dynamics. I was impressed by Jackie's art of storytelling and directing, as well as her courage to connect (with her) family to demystify painful, personal topics, ultimately seeking closure for herself and her loved ones. A few days after I saw the movie, I reached out to Jackie to share my impressions and request an interview. She agreed, and I had the pleasure of meeting with her to learn more about her story, her family, her art, and, of course, her documentary.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tune in to Gimme A Beat (18.12.2023) tonight to hear my interview with Jackie Brutsche and selected music from her two bands: The Jackets and The Sex Organs.
