Title: Central Bazaar

Release Date: 2 Sep 1976

Runtime: 2h 36m

Genre: Drama

Director: BFI

Production Companies: BFI

Overview: For this remarkable experimental film, the provocative avant-garde legend Stephen Dwoskin gathered together a group of strangers and filmed them as they explored their fantasies over a period of five days: a project that now sounds a little like TV's Big Brother. The ceremonial gowns and make-up here not only evoke the eroticism of European horror movies but also highlight the film's interplay between performance and intimacy. Jonas Mekas called it 'theatre of life'.
