The Laundry Room
The Laundry Room
The key to the communal laundry room in the block of flats on the Rue de Genève 85 in Lausanne serves a much greater function than merely unlocking the door. This encounter between a symbol of typical Swiss mentality with a penchant for order and the tenants who have been housed here by the city’s social services department is not something to be taken for granted. Although the laundry room is normally located in the cellar, the tenants in this building share a tiny laundry room off the entrance hall because the cellar is reserved for prostitution. To maintain order and cleanliness, the landlord hires Claudina, a new “laundry woman”.

Sitting Feeding Sleeping
Sitting Feeding Sleeping
"I shot Sitting Feeding Sleeping in a cryogenics lab, where nitrogen-pumped bodies circulate their own blood. In a robotics perception lab, where machines read human emotion. And in zoos, where animals live extended lives emptied of sexual, social, survival cues. I used these three spaces as prosthetics for understanding deathfullness­­ — being alive, feeling dead."

Athadu Aame O Scooter
Athadu Aame O Scooter
We'll begin with a few lines of a song to give you an idea of the kind of humor this movie has to offer. Physics papa physique chudu, social papa sokulu chudu, botany papa bottom chudu, zoology papa anatomy chudu, geography papa jathakamantha ethuthala kolathalu chudu...papa means girl, chudu translates to see. Do you see how it all rhymes, physics and physique, bottom and botany, zoology and anatomy? And ethuthalala is snide reference for female breasts. Even if you don't know what it means when you will see Thagubothu Ramesh (on whom the song is picturised) staring at the chest area of the ladies, you will get the point.

But how far is each party willing to go? It is the unique characters that make this fascinating film about a delicate political game so vivid and loveable. The stoic, Serbian negotiator has a great passion for rock music, his colleague from Kosovo does not want to miss out on his daily visit to the hairdresser, and Cooper himself has a closet full of ties - one for every conceivable occasion.
