  Across The Border – Five Views From Neighbours
Directors: Pawel Lozinski, Jan Gogola, Peter Kerekes, Robert Lakatos, Biljana Cakic-Veselic
Running Time: 131 minutes

Austria 2004
   
  The film was made at a unique point in history, that of a political re-ordering of Europe, dealing with ideas about borders at the beginning of the 21st century. Five directors from Poland, The Czech Republic, Slovakia, Hungary and Slovenia present their view and vision of nation, identity and Europe. All five directors embark on a journey through landscapes and mentalities, an encounter with people living through an upheaval. Across the border, from the so-called old Europe to the new, where growing differences between cultures, peoples, lifestyles and pace are becoming increasingly visable.
   
  Screening: 21 October at 7.30 p.m. Rewley House
