Apichatpong Weerasethakul 'Sang Sattawat' 

Andrei Tarkovsky 'Solaris'

Architecture

I have aquired quite a liking to the Architectural mid century Modernist trend of 'Brutalism' and other repercussions of this trend, with concretes use as zero degree structure element.

These next ones are photographs by Jan Kampenaers of Eastern European Soviet monuments which are very Brutalist in nature.
