NEWS FROM THE OTHER WORLD a film by Valentina Bek about the writer Yuri Mamleyev
Friday Nov 15, 7pm
Screening
+conversation with Valentina Bek ____________________________________________
Motto – 38 rue du Vertbois – 75003 Paris ____________________________________________
“A family portrait of the Mamleyevs in a tight interior of a small Moscow apartment is an experiment in metaphysical documentary filmmaking. Yuri Mamleyev, the author of a great prose about Russian chthonic tradition. His wife, translator Maria Alexandrovna Mamleyeva, flips through a photo album with the pictures of Parisian and American exile. But the eerie time reverberates somewhere near these scenes of unpretentious coziness, in the editing voids and the disturbing hum of the abstract soundtrack.” – Andrey Kartashov
The event is organized within the framework of the cinema club and Film Association K1NO1 Paris.
Information about the most famous novel, ‘The Sublimes’ by Yuri Mamleyev, can be found here

The main character is the electric train type ED4M, one of the most common in Russia since the mid-90s. This small detective story unfolds on newsprint, featuring carriage vestibules, doors, handles, and wanted persons. It immerses the audience in the realm between the living and the dead, accompanied by the sound of wheels clattering, exploring space, ritual, collective recognition, and personal experience. The Tbilisi weekly sports newspaper served as the prototype for this book.
ED4M (Electric train Demikhovsky, type 4) is a series of Russian DC electric trains produced from 1996 to 2016 at the Demikhovsky Machine-Building Plant. The first batch with increased comfort was manufactured for the Moscow Railway between 1999 and 2000. During this period, ED4 and ED4M models became the most significant electric trains for local purposes.
Zine features photographs by Ivan Anisimov taken between 2019 and 2022 before he left Russia. Further shooting was continued by his son Danila, who took four rolls of 35mm film in winter 2023. Zine design by Aeona Melnikova.
Screening is a documentation of the printing process of a zine in a print facility, Tbilisi.
Ivan Anisimov was born in Pereslavl-Zalessky, Russia, in 1988. For more than 10 years, he has been engaged in documentary film and photography, collecting archives from lost photographs and videos. He has carried out several photographic projects and is now based in Paris, France.
The event is organized within the framework of the cinema club and Film Association K1NO1 Paris.
SCREENING + Round Table Friday, October 11, 2024 at Motto Paris From 7:00 PM Round Table starts at 8:00 PM
QUATERNITE by Egor Shevchenko
Motto Paris is very happy to open its autumn/winter screening sessions with artist talks and round tables in collaboration with the K1N01 Association.
This video artwork was inspired by the I Ching 易經, an ancient Chinese divination system.
The work represents random combinations of 64 episodes, shot in France in 2018-2019. The story revolves around four characters lost in the narrative of the story itself.
Additionally, the work was created using the I Ching: the coins were thrown before filming each episode to determine the location, the actors, and the events to follow.
Soundtrack by Gela Lomaya
Round Table THE CRISIS OF NARRATIVE IN CINEMA
Narrative – history haunts people. At some point, the narrative crisis touched literature and was marked by the works of J.Joyce, A.Bely and then S.Beckett. can we feel “again” necessity to discuss such modern movements in contemporary cinema, It’s crisis and ways out. will we rest everything in status quo and will continue to be the part of the narrative automatisms in life and in cinema.
We invite everyone concerned to join the conversation; those who wish can prepare a presentation on the topic.
If you’ve got an extra chair, bring it to the round table
