DONT MISS ICELAND VII, TODAY! At 19:30h!!

“To be incoherent means to believe in cinema.” Katrín Ólafsdóttir in person at VIDEOEX.

Filmmaker Katrín Ólafsdóttir works according to the Incoherence Manifesto — a poetic commitment to a free, analogue, and radically personal cinema. Shot on expired film stock and created using only in-camera effects, driven by poetic disorientation.

For the first time ever, Katrín Ólafsdóttir’s works are being presented together in a larger context — exclusively at VIDEOEX.

World Premiere of “My Heart Beats In The World Of The Dead”. Featuring David Cronenberg.

With “Prehistoric Cabaret” and “Life and Death of Henry Darger” by
