Salome, Salome, Salome was so moving, how beautiful is to share the love for great films. All those conversations around doing an endless run of Salome that would explore the many and varied versions and adaptations of the play and the myth filled us with energy and inspiration.

Many things to our incredible guest speakers jaye🖤hudson and for helping us see through the veils. 🤍

Thanks to everyone who came to discover a new Salome —and now has hunger for more. ✨

To our hosts, 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐆𝐀𝐑𝐃𝐄𝐍 𝐂𝐈𝐍𝐄𝐌𝐀 and The Rio Cinema, it’s always a pleasure. 🍿

To our great .more.noise for another super beautiful flyer design.❤️‍🔥

Amidst the veils, immerse yourself in the hypnotic Salome by experimental filmmaker Teo Hernández 🇲🇽 – a visual and melodramatic experience. The film, which blends Mexican tradition, boleros and a freely adapted version of the myth and the play, is a journey for the senses.

Salome.
Dir. Teo Hernández 🇲🇽 🇫🇷 1976
+ Intro by Lola Lemke

📅 Sunday, 5 July, 6 pm
📍 The Garden Cinema

In his first feature, experimental filmmaker Teo Hernández takes on the gospel story of Salome with a high camp aesthetic, midway between Mexican iconography and gay glitter.

BRAZIL ON FILM 🇧🇷 major season at the continues through June. Join us for the screening of The Woman of Everyone, a delirious anti-heroine tears through São Paulo, in a defining classic of Brazil’s Cinema Marginal.

THE WOMAN OF EVERYONE | A MULHER DE TODOS
Dir. Rogério Sganzerla, 1969 🇧🇷

Ignez stuns as Ângela Carne e Osso (“Angela Meat and Bone”), a free-spirited woman who
drifts through lovers and crimes in a delirious São Paulo shaped by consumer culture and
repression. Made under the military dictatorship and the subject of censorship, Sganzerla’s
film became a key work of Cinema Marginal – a radical, low-budget movement that rejected
commercial cinema and political orthodoxy. It’s a provocative pop-art attack on respectability
and narrative form
