SUMMARY:THE CLEANERS FROM VENUS + THE GARDENERS
DESCRIPTION:Upset The Rhythm presents… \nTHE CLEANERS FROM VENUS\nTHE GARDENERS\nMonday 5 October\nIslington Assembly Hall\, Upper St\, London\, N1 2UD\n7pm | £18 | Tickets: https://link.dice.fm/eb85ea9a3f61 \nTHE CLEANERS FROM VENUS will be performing this Autumn in London. Martin Newell will be on guitar and piano\, joined by Nelson Surfquake Nice –  an original member of Cleaners back in the 80s\, and half of The Brotherhood of Lizards alongside Martin. The group will be performing some classic Cleaners songs\, with a Brotherhood of Lizards cameo-set thrown in! \nMartin Newell is a purveyor of ingenious pop music. His music is refracted from late 60s rock only shot through with invention from the rough-and-ready explosion of DIY tape releases in 80s Britain. As a songwriter\, he’s right up there with Syd Barrett and Ray Davies\, capturing a peculiar Englishness that’s very much his own. \nMartin started his career in music aged 19 when he joined an Essex glam-rock band called The Mighty Plod as a singer and gigged in rough clubs\, pubs and colleges for the next two years. In his early twenties he joined a hard rock/prog band from Ipswich called Gypp and gigged in the UK as well as touring northern Germany several times. In 1979\, he won his first record contract and shortly afterwards his first single ‘Young Jobless / Sylvie In Toytown’ was released\, first on an indie label and then with Liberty Records. In the 1980s he formed the anarchic and wonderfully offbeat Cleaners From Venus\, who after much defiance of music biz convention\, signed to a London record company and began making proper records which were well reviewed and well-received. He began co-writing songs with Captain Sensible in 1986\, a relationship which endures to some extent to this day. In 1989 he and his friend Nelson\, now of New Model Army formed The Brotherhood of Lizards\, were signed to make an album and proceeded to promote it\, touring the record by bicycle. This led to many TV appearances and some notoriety and amusement in the media. In 1993\, with XTC’s Andy Partridge in the producer’s chair Martin made what was to become his most successful album ‘The Greatest Living Englishman’\, hailed by Rolling Stone magazine as a rock classic. Over the last ten years Martin has continued to release exhilarating albums under his own name and as Cleaners from Venus\, most recently a winsome new Cleaners album called ‘K7’ was released on CD and cassette. \nA highly-entertaining live act\, Martin Newell performs infrequently\, refusing nowadays to tour at all.  He has been the subject of  a highly-praised documentary film Upstairs Planet (2019) which enjoyed premieres both in London and in New York. A second documentary The Jangling Man\, the director James Sharp’s intimate portrait of  Newell’s life and work\,  premiered in London and Los Angeles in October 2022. \nhttps://www.cleanersfromvenus.com/ \nTHE GARDENERS are a jangle-pop inspired indie rock band hailing from London and Southend On Sea. They have recently backed up Martin Newell as part of a live version of Cleaners From Venus. Check out their sublime new single ‘Round the West’ / ‘Falling from You’. \nhttps://linktr.ee/thegardenersband

SUMMARY:Better Go Mad in the Wild + Q&A with director Miro Remo
DESCRIPTION:Deep in the Šumava Mountains\, identical twins František and Ondřej have created a life far from the gaze of society. On their ramshackle farm\, they tend to their animals\, swim in forest lakes\, compose poetry\, drink\, philosophise and bicker – before making up and starting all over again. But beneath their eccentric routines lie two very different spirits: František dreams of freedom and adventure\, while Ondřej longs for the comfort of the familiar. As their unbreakable bond is put to the test\, their unconventional world becomes a funny and moving reflection on brotherhood\, solitude and the desire to live life on your own terms. Remo playfully blurs the line between reality and fairy tale\, mixing semi-staged vignettes\, striking visual tableaux\, a talking cow and plenty of anarchic humour. Warm\, eccentric and full of surprises\, Better Go Mad in the Wild is a wonderfully offbeat celebration of two charismatic outsiders who have created their own way of seeing – and living – in the world. \nMiro Remo\, Czech Republic\, Slovakia 2025\, 84´\, English subtitles \n  \n2025 Crystal Globe Winner at the Karlovy Vary Film Festival \nPresented at IDFA – Best of Fests\, \nCzech Lions: Best Cinematography\, Best Editing\, Best Documentary Film \n“Sprightly\, warm\, and endearing portraiture … conjuring little moments of magic by slowing down for long enough to notice all the details of two born outsiders who turned nature into their own private sanctuary.” – RogerEbert.com \nVariety’s Guy Lodge shared the love for the film\, calling it a “poignant\, permanent imprint of lives largely lived far outside the gaze of society and the authorities.” \nLondon Premiere organised in collaboration with Tributary Releasing\, UK distributor of the film. \nThis event is a part of the 30th Made in Prague Festival organised by Czech Centre London.

SUMMARY:Little Thief + Q&A with director Ondřej Hudeček and actor Václav Neužil
DESCRIPTION:Fresh out of prison\, good-hearted small-time thief Lupyn returns to his hometown in South Moravia\, only to find the world turned upside down by the pandemic. With businesses struggling and the usual rules seemingly suspended\, his particular talents suddenly offer an unlikely way to help those around him. But when Lupyn’s plans bring him into the orbit of local crime boss Asasín and corrupt policeman Čeněk (wonderfully played by Václav Neužil) – who happens to be dating Lupyn’s mother- things quickly become more complicated than he bargained for. \nThis feature debut from Sundance-winning director Ondřej Hudeček is a sharp and wonderfully earthy mix of black comedy\, crime and satire. Steeped in local dialect\, characters and atmosphere\, it puts a distinctly Czech spin on the classic heist comedy\, delivering a mischievous ‘Covid Western ‘ where the boundaries between right and wrong become increasingly blurred. \nOndřej Hudeček\, Czech Republic 2026\, 118‘\, English subtitles\nCast: Matyáš Řezníček\, Václav Neužil\, Stanislav Majer\, Denisa Barešová \, Eva Vrbková
