La Galette des Rois is a yearly French holiday, a concoction between pagan and religious traditions. Marzipan pie is served with a small trinket hidden inside. Whoever is lucky enough to break their teeth on the trinket gets to be King or Queen for the day! Yay!

Our galettes will be prepared by Patissière Extraordinaire Magali Rivière:

THE FILM: Trois couleurs: Blanc (1994)

‘Like Talking Heads trashing Nick Cave’s wendy house in a Samuel Beckett production’ TM

‘Intense and revealing…a performer who commands attention’ Argus, UK

Drawing from strands of folk, new wave and post-rock Mute Swimmer takes the tactics of a performance artist to the traditional song. Romantic, ironic and self reflexive by rapid turns he has quickly earned a reputation as a compelling live performer. The single 7″ Song Against Itself / Some Examples, released on Bleeding Heart Recordings, was a single of the week at Rough Trade and Piccadilly Records in the UK. His debut album was released on Woodland Recordings in 2010.

Aaaaaaaand… we’re back.

This Friday, we will be simultaneously celebrating the opening of a new and exciting exhibition at Heroes, as well as our official reopening as a BAR!

The exhibition:

Marco Goldenstein will present a series of about 50 small portraits of big men (artists, actors, writers, etc.) that were produced over an extended period of time. They all have in common that they at one time or another meant something special to the artist…

Marco Goldenstein stellt eine Serie von ca. 50 kleine Portraits von Männern aus, die über eine längere Zeit gemacht wurden. Alle sind mehr oder weniger bekannte Persönlichkeiten (Künstler, Schauspieler, Literaten, usw.); alle Leute die irgendwann Mal wichtig für den Künstler waren…

Exactly. Merry Christmas.

Selected and presented by Zoe Goldstein and Stephen Taylor.

20.12.2011: SIMPLE MEN (1992)

Hal Hartley’s third feature film, Simple Men opens with a robber, Bill, asking a bound and blindfolded security guard if he can take his Virgin Mary medallion. “Be good to her and she’ll be good to you,” says the guard. From there, Bill and his younger brother Dennis go off in search of their father, an anarchist who committed a bombing many years ago. The only clue is an old phone number on Long Island. So begins this oddball narrative about the strangeness of how fate unfolds.

Artist Pauline Curnier Jardin will present her latest short film, an experimental fiction. This is a Berlin premiere, months before the film is scheduled to be shown in art film festivals in France.

The girl Bernadette has just seen an apparition – it may have been the Immaculate Conception. In her confusion, she is drawn upwards into the majestic mountains where she falls asleep, exhausted, on a round stone. The child feels she is falling in love with the Virgin. In a semi-conscious state, she finds herself inside a cave where an extraordinary cosmogony unfolds, meant to teach her about the great questions of the origins of humanity. An ancestral howl can be heard, water pearls and falls in pools beneath the stalactites, the walls of the cave twist and turn tortuously: nature itself is entering into the initiatory ritual undertaken by our little visionary…

L’enfant Bernadette vient de voir une apparition – peut-être celle de l’Immaculée Conception. Le trouble que suscite en elle cette vision la porte jusque dans les montagnes majestueuses où, épuisée, elle s’assoupit dans un champ, sur une pierre ronde. L’enfant se sent amoureuse de la vierge. Évoluant dans un état de semi-inconscience, elle se retrouve à l’intérieur d’une grotte où toute une cosmogonie extravagante entend l’instruire sur les questions de l’origine de l’humanité. Un râle ancestral, des gouttes qui tombent en perles dans les flaques sous les stalactites, la paroi tourmentée de la cavité ; les éléments naturels eux-mêmes se joignent au rituel initiatique de la petite visionnaire…

Tuesday, December 13th – film starts at 9 p.m.

Hal Hartley’s second excursion into absurd suburbia, and a much loved cult favourite which was (and still is) totally overlooked by the mainstream, Trust is a witty film that stretches and transcends, and ultimately breaks down, the definition of “romantic comedy.” Many consider this the best film Hartley has made.
