DR. CALIGARI

Avant-garde erotic comedy

Stephen Sayadan, 1989, USA
80', DCP, English w/French subs

In the presence of Stephen Sayadian

Suspected of having an anarchic and exuberant libido, Miss Van Houten is sent by her husband to an asylum to be treated by a sadistic psychiatrist with twisted methods.

Dr. Caligari, a sort of erotic and hallucinatory remake of Robert Wiene's expressionist film (Das Cabinet des Dr. Caligari, 1920), is a nightmarish and hilarious journey that unfolds, in ultra-stylized vignettes, a critique of psychiatry and the damage of a restrained libido, all with a unique and highly creative filmic energy.
