Véréna Paravel\, Lucien Castaing-Taylor. 2017\, 97 mins . Digital projection. In Japanese and French with English subtitles. This new film from the pioneering directors behind the landmark documentary Lev iathan is a discomfitingly experiential portrait of unacceptable desires. On June 13\, 1981\, 32-year-old Sorbonne student Issei Sagawa was arrested in Paris after being caught discarding two suitcases containing the remai ns of his Dutch classmate\, who he had murdered and begun to consume. Decl ared legally insane\, he returned to Japan\, where he has been a free man ever since. Though ostracized from society\, Sagawa has made a living off his crime by writing novels\, drawing manga\, and appearing in salacious d ocumentaries and sexploitation films. Meanwhile his brother\, Jun Sagawa\, harbors extreme impulses of his own. With Caniba\, Paravel and Castaing-T aylor—titans of Harvard's celebrated Sensory Ethnography Lab—pursue a mini malist audiovisual strategy that is in some ways the inverse of the maxima list Leviathan\, fostering unease and reflection through deceptively meand ering conversation and subtly shifting focus. And as such Caniba is a sing ular cinematic experience: a horror movie by way of the documentary interv iew. A Grasshopper Film release. \n\n\n“You’d have a difficult time findin g another film that contains this much fascinating and terrible humanity.” —Dan Sullivan\, Cinema Scope \;\n\n \n\n\n Please note: Due to unfores een circumstances \;directors Véréna Paravel and Lucien Castaing-Taylo r are no longer able to attend this screening.
