So, I've been looking through a film festival line-up. So far my browsing has shown me:

1. 27* coming of age stories, most of which appear to end in tragedy

2. 12 films where middle-aged people have a gathering of some sort and discuss something about adultery/crime/whathaveyou that turns out very badly

3. 19 films that 'eschew sentimentality' presumably so they can also 'present unflinching gazes' at something or other

4. Approx. 75 personal or film journeys. I do not know what separates the two as presumably as this is a film festival they are all filmed.

5. 4 "ineffably transcendent experimental" works.


* All numbers may be exaggerated for rhetorical effect.

In short, 137 loads of boring pretentious crap:)

Something like that. In all fairness some of them might be good, but the descriptions are incredibly off putting.
