"Objective: I don't like the word!"
André chats with Romanian pravda-vocateur Radu Jude whose film Bad Luck Banging or Loony Porn hits Australian cinemas November 25. In this funny and nervous Zoom ramble, the two discuss BLBOLP, which follows a Romanian school teacher whose sex tape is leaked. Radu and André cover male nudity in film, being a teenager at the cinemathèque, queer liberation, the need to work out before a shoot, and Radu's motivation behind filmmaking. Surprisingly, Soda Jerk comes up in the chat.
EDIT/CW: Contrapoints is not 'fully' a PHD student. André also reveals an appreciation for problematic film Blue is The Warmest Colour.
