Lies & Humiliations

About This Movie

Lies & Humiliations is this intriguing blend of memory and visual poetry, kinda haunting in its execution. The Super-8 imagery really captures this ethereal quality, bringing forth feelings of nostalgia without directly showing us everything. It’s like a slow unraveling, where each frame offers a glimpse into the past — those intimate spaces of a home, the kitchen and dining room, almost become characters in their own right. The pacing feels meditative, almost dream-like, leading you to reflect on childhood and its fleeting moments. What sticks with me is how it evokes those ghosts of memory, both comforting and unsettling, and how it manages to linger long after viewing.

Lies & Humiliations has had a limited release, often found in niche circles, making it somewhat of a rarity. Collector interest is steady, especially among those who appreciate avant-garde cinema and Super-8 aesthetics. Various formats have emerged over the years, but original prints remain particularly sought after, adding to the allure of this haunting piece.
