Harmony Korine: Films Should Be A Sensory Experience

Harmony Korine is a skater, a painter, a cigar aficionado, a computer game designer and one of the most important independent American directors of the last 30 years. In the 90s, almost overnight, he went from being a teenager drinking at skate parks to the generationally heralded screenwriter of Larry Clark’s legendary Kids (1995) and then, just as quickly, he became a visionary and brilliant director in his own right.

This year, we honoured Korine with the Pardo d’onore Manor for a career that’s produced six unique feature films, dozens of shorts, music videos, experimental work and documentaries.

About Locarno Film Festival:

Conceived in 1946 in the aftermath of World War II, the Locarno Film Festival was destined to be a platform for the rebirth of freedom of artistic expression, and since its inception the annual event has hosted the boldest, most avant-garde and innovative forms of filmmaking. Lying between the mountains and the Swiss shore of Lake Maggiore, once a year the city of Locarno is decked out in the yellow-and-black Leopard spotting of the Festival colors to host an intensive, 11-day celebration of cinema.
