The annual Migrating Forms festival begins this weekend at Anthology Film Archives, and four films are of particular interest to me. Fritz Lang's The Tiger of Eschnapur (top) and The Indian Tomb, a diptych often referred to collectively as the Indian epic, screens Sunday night. On Tuesday Raul Ruiz's beautiful puzzle of a film, On Top of the Whale, will be followed by a tribute featuring readings and screenings of short Ruiz films.
There are also two selections from the vital and rarely-screened (in New York) Filipino New Wave. First, Khavn de la Cruz's Mondomanila on Friday, and then Lav Diaz's 6-hour A Century of Birthing (bottom), next Saturday.
