everyone should check out the Jon Jost torrents on KG. he's seriously a GOAT auteur but it seems that hardly anyone has heard of him, even among cineastes (and of course there's a good reason for that - he's been so rarely shown over the years).
i would recommend The Bed You Sleep In and Sure Fire to start off.
https://karagarga.net/details.php?id=14155https://karagarga.net/details.php?id=53331there are so many wonderful things about Jost, but something i haven't seen mentioned by Ray Carney or anyone else is that he has a great feel for pacing in his narrative films.
No.979
>>975I'm familiar with his experimental films but they came off as a bit kitschy (maybe partially because of the VHS aesthetics) and kind of SJW, are his feature films like that too?
No.981
>>979his features on celluloid are "lo-fi" for sure but afaik he didn't do video. his stuff on KG = VHS rips generally. i definitely wouldn't call them kitschy at all and i'm not sure what you find kitschy about his experimental films.

>>1277nice! are you a fan of his?

>>1302I don't know if you can say that, I've seen Speaking Directly by him and while I think it was pretty good for a first feature, I didn't really dig the stuff about his girlfriend and whatnot, which unfortunately amounted to the majority of the movie, but don't get me wrong, the bits about the politics of burgerland while kind of naive were really interesting overall, I wasn't really aware how little has changed as far as the left wing views has changed since the early 70s.
Plus his cock looks kind of weird.But since it's pretty likely that he will show up for a Q&A at that festival I'm going to, I might watch something more so that I can shine with some educated question regarding his body of work.

It's somewhat true, I hardly download from KG aside from the uber raerz … especially with so much other stuff getting new HD transfers.
Still it's a valuable site to use simply as a resource of what is and is not available.

The German documentarian Hartmut Bitomsky seems like he'll be more widely known in a decade or so. For now he has no English Wikipedia page despite directing over 20 films.
Der VW-Komplex is a good place to start.

>>19812001, 8 1/2, and La Passion de Jeanne d'Arc are in my top 10 and I'm still downloading obscure shit all the time.

I still haven't watched this from the last freeleech, but it's the 6 hour "uber psychedelic" French TV version of The Saragossa Manuscript. Fansubs created for all 3 episodes.

Anything essential I should get from this freeleech. I'm not all that interested in "obscurity" as much as I am for great cinematography. I heard Chinese cinema has been consistently good lately, anyone has something to offer from that pool?
No.2808
I wouldn't mind some Chinese recs myself.
I've been getting HD versions of Chaplin/Keaton shorts and other silents I haven't seen yet. And I simply grabbed one "new" film from a number of directors I like.
I've barely been on the site all year so I don't know much about the best recent uploads or subtitle translations.
No.2816
>>2806Chinese related, have you seen TO LIVE (1994) or THE BLUE KITE (1993)? Both are worth a look.
I know you don't particularly want obscure, but I have to mention this experimental silent with no IMDb page at the time of its upload – DAS BLUMENWUNDER (1926). It's also a fun German word to repeat to yourself.
No.2821
>>2816thanks for recs! im getting them right now.
