Director

Dominiziano Cristopharo

BLUE SUNSET is the first Italian Cyberpunk film of the new millennium, a colorful cyberpunk story that evokes the glorious sci-fi visuals of the 80s, without neglecting the nihilism typical of the genre.
In a near future, a company called NOVA wants to hide sophisticated mind control systems behind its video games.
To do this, the company relies on Silver02, their best programmer, who will in turn be intercepted by rebel Hackers who want to thwart NOVA's plan.

Already compromised by the use of hallucinogenic drugs, Silver02's mind will begin to waver definitively between real and virtual.

SWEET 16mm

In 1979, intent on venturing into the vast and unexplored areas of the virgin Amazon rainforest, a small American film crew attempts to make a documentary about the region's indigenous cannibalistic tribes, only to disappear without a trace. As the noted anthropologist, Harold Monroe, and his team of seasoned guides embark on a rescue mission to locate the missing documentarians in the heart of the Green Inferno, fearful tribes, that no white has ever seen before, will soon start to take an interest in them. Inevitably, as the professor unearths more evidence about the fate of the film crew by sheer luck, a desperate battle to recover the raw footage that was paid in blood will commence.

Director

Luna Gualano

An Italian feature by a woman director with a clever reflection about the immigrants following up on a tradition of 'politically motivated' zombie horror and a hot topic in Europe. “In the course of a demonstration in Rome against the opening of a refugee center, an apocalypse of zombies breaks out. Enrico, an ultra-rightist young man lying on his identity, finds refuge in the center. The only safe place for him is this refugee camp that he did not want, while the dead are walking outside…

Underground

This avant-garde sex film is a tribute to the films of Alberto Cavallone, directed by Morgana Mayer, whose Sexual Labyrinth was shown at BUT last year. Just like that film, Female Touch is a blasphemous, dreamlike movie that offers a queer and kinky vision of womanhood.

We at BUT like it kinky, and there is nothing more kinky on our program than Sexual Labyrinth, a dark, surrealistic exploration of beautifully perverse sexuality. Pleasure and pain are interchangable in this ode to the poetic sex ﬁlms of seventies auteurs like Joe D’Amato and Jess Franco.
