SIXTY SIX [Tickets] [Invite Friends]

D, A: Lewis Klahr, US 2002-2015, 90 min., English OV – GP

Greek gods, American superheroes, Californian blondes and doomed lovers cut out from cartoons and pop art are compiled into 12 short movies. “Sixty Six” is the crowning achievement of Lewis Klahr’s long career, a heartfelt hommage to the American pulp of the ‘60s and a psychedelic trip into the pop-cultural unconscious.

after the screening:

Debate: EXHIBITION
