Mirror of the Planet

Mirror of the Planet

1992 · 87 min · ★ 5.8 · Drama

Jytte Rex' sixth feature explores the here and now, the once and future beyond, Death and Eros, and proof of God's existence to be found in the Black Holes in a universe of nothingness. Tangible human individuals like Adam, an astronome, and two small children move through the surreal landscapes of Jytte Rex' cinematic poetry. If a door opens, it is only to lead you into Eternity's ultimate maze.

The Sleeping Beauty

The Sleeping Beauty · 1971

The Sleeping Beauty

MovieDocumentary

A feminist film produced in close co-operation between women who - through situations chosen by themselves for the film - partly step out of their anonymous rôle-playing and partly disclose identities that are survivors of all the oppressive tendencies of a normative society. A film about yearning. Women will live on and survive all bloodsheds and they know that with security the culminations will level out. (DFI)

Veronica's Veil

Veronica's Veil · 1977

Veronica's Veil

Jytte Rex charts the white or wilfully deleted spots on the map of primarily women's happiness and grief. This is done by the experimental filmmaker's positioning of a dream narrator as a guide through the manyleveled visions, stories and pictures that unite work, love, and revolt in any individual's life. The title refers to the cloth or veil on which crucified Christ's tormented face left an imprint for posterity.
