Film Showings

 

Manchevski’s feature films Before the Rain, Dust, Shadows and Mothers, Bikini Moon,Willow, the shorts Thursday and The End of Time and several music videos (including Tennessee), as well as the episode of HBO’s The Wire he directed have screened globally.

 

Before the Rain, Dust, Shadows and Mothers, Willow as well as Thursday and The End of Time, have screened at numerous festivals

 

Before the Rain, Dust, Shadows, Mothers and Willow received wide theatrical distribution in more than 50 countries.

 

The length and the scope of the theatrical run was varied, with some territories, such as Spain, Turkey, Argentina and Italy showing Before the Rain in the first-run theaters for several
months; in Sweden, the film played in first-run theaters for a year; in the U.S. it did play venues where relatively few foreign films play, such as Kansas City.

 

The films have wide video distribution internationally. Since it was initially released before DVD was in wide use, Before the Rain is recently being re-issued as a DVD in a number of territories: Brazil, Turkey, UK, Italy, U.S. (by the Criterion Collection in 2008), etc.

 

After the theatrical run, the films aired repeatedly on pay-per-view and cable channels, and on commercial and public TV. They are also frequently shown in cinematheque and college settings.
