On April 22, Ausfile admin sent me a letter demanding to reduce the volume of the storage used and after 2 days deleted half of my files.
I tried to reupload files, but it was impossible.
For me it is obvious that the administrator has decided to engage in mining CHIA coin.
Today Ausfile admin sent me another letter demanding to delete files.

Though often overshadowed by her male counterparts, the Belgian-born Greek-French filmmaker was a New Wave innovator who left a vibrant body of work, all of it restored and available in a new collection. All thirty-nine films from the French cinema icon including essential classics, shorts, documentaries, and multimedia works, together for the first time.
A founder of the French New Wave who became an international art-house icon, Agnes Varda was a fiercely independent, restlessly curious visionary whose work was at once personal and passionately committed to the world around her. In an abundant career in which she never stopped expanding the notion of what a movie can be, Varda forged a unique cinematic vocabulary that frequently blurs the boundaries between narrative and documentary, and entwines loving portraits of her friends, her family, and her own inner world with a social consciousness that was closely attuned to the 1960s counterculture, the women's liberation movement, the plight of the poor and socially marginalized, and the ecology of our planet.
As Criterion did with their 2018 box set, Ingmar Bergman's Cinema, they have chosen not to present these films in strict chronological order. Instead, each of the set's 15 discs has a theme. As one progresses through all these discs, the connections between the films -- and not only those that have been included together -- become clearer. This makes Agnes Varda's output feel like one large, multi-part artwork.
Federico Fellini remains one of the greatest filmmakers in the history of film. He was an artist who crafted a cinematic spectacle all his own, creating an unique but sometimes bleak world full of dreamers, whose desires, fears, nightmares, and hopes all take center stage.
Not only is this monumental Criterion Collection release “essential” Federico Fellini (1920-1993), it also represents the large majority of films in the Italian maestro’s oeuvre, missing only I Clowns, Fellini’s Casanova, Orchestra Rehearsal, City of Women, Ginger and Fred, The Voice of the Moon, and a couple of segments from anthology films.
The fact that this set is far from complete in terms of Fellini’s films does not mean that it is not comprehensive. Titles span from the start of Fellini’s career to quite nearly the end, covering all of his major thematic shifts and often wild creative phases. Included are all of the Fellini titles that Criterion has ever released, many of which have not been previously made available on Blu-ray due to having been forced out of print for many years. Not only is it about time, it’s the perfect time- the 100th birthday of the director. (Fellini was born January 20, 1920, in Rimini, Italy).

Carmen Miranda plays eponymous Carmen, a singer-dancer from Brazil who has had the misfortune to hook up personally and professionally with one Lionel Q. Devereaux (Groucho Marx), a hustler without much talent who finally figures out he'd be better off representing Carmen as her manager rather than trying to book them as a duo act. Acting as Carmen's agent, Lionel gets an important audition for her at the Copacabana, owned by Steve Hunt (Steve Cochran). But Hunt is unimpressed, and says he's really looking for a French chanteuse. Thinking fast, Devereaux recostumes Carmen, puts a veil on her face and sends her out front as Mlle. Fifi. Things get problematic, however, when Devereaux gets greedy and insists that Hunt also book Carmen. This creates serious problems when Hunt schedules both women at the same time on separate stages, leading to a comedy of errors.

A modest miracle of twenty-first-century neorealism, the acclaimed debut feature by Ramin Bahrani speaks quietly but profoundly to the experiences of those living on the margins of the American dream.
At 3:00 AM, Pakistani immigrant Ahmad (Ahmad Razvi) is already at work stocking his pushcart, which he then has to pull it by hand through the Manhattan streets with buses and cabs all around him. He once had a glorious future back in Lahore with a hit CD, but all that has vanished and seems like nothing more than a dream. His wife is dead and in-laws are raising his young son. They are reluctant to let Ahmad back in the boy's life. His dream is to make enough money so his son can live with him. One challenge after another knocks him down, not to mention the thousands of little humiliations and indignities which come his way from customers.
The inspiration for this riveting movie is Myth of Sisyphus by Albert Camus about a man whose eternal fate is to push a rock up a hill only to have it roll back down again. The philosophical insights come at the end when Camus writes: "The struggle itself towards the heights is enough to fill a man's heart."

For his acclaimed follow-up to Man Push Cart, Ramin Bahrani once again turned his camera on a slice of New York City rarely seen on-screen.
Willets Point is its own hermetically-sealed world of garages and body shops where twelve-year-old Alejandro busts his ass to scrape out a living among the mechanics (both legit and dubious ones) and the street hustlers. Little Ale gamely flags down drivers who havecruised into the area looking for cheap repairs, guiding them to the shop run by his boss Rob (Rob Sowulski, a real garage owner.) A perpetual motion machine, Ale skips up stairways, races across bridges, and squeezes his tiny body through windows in the relentless pursuit of an extra buck, selling bootleg DVDs, stolen hubcaps, or anything else he can scrounge.
Soon, Ale's teenage sister Isamar (Isamar Gonzalez) arrives from a safe house to live with him in a cramped room above Rob's garage. Without parents, an education, or any kind of social safety net to rely on, the siblings' life seems precarious, but Ale is confident he can surmount any obstacle. He assures Izzy there's nothing to worry about because: “I'm gonna work this shit out”...

WESTWORLD was for children, FUTUREWORLD was for teenagers, but... SEXWORLD is definitely for ADULTS!
Instead of simply lampooning the 1973 hit "Westworld", 1978's "Sex World" attempts to use the unforgettable premise to inspire a surprisingly sophisticated adult movie.
One of the late, great Sam Weston's (aka Anthony Spinelli) most revered films, SexWorld begins when a group of men and women from various walks of life board a bus bound for the titular resort. Once onboard, a guide with a goofy accent (Sean Desmond) fills them in – see, they’ve all sent in applications in hopes of being accepted to the exclusive SexWorld, a land where sexual fantasies are made into sexual realities – and obviously as they’re on the bus, they’ve been accepted.
As we travel to the resort, we learn why some of them wanted to go. Fantasies include, rape, rough sex, incest and interracial.
Of course, as all of our participants live out their erotic dreams, we see both the good and the bad materialize in the ramifications of their actions, leading to a bit of fairly well played drama in between the various scenes of hardcore couplings.
Jess + Moss, Clay Jeter's unusually heartfelt film about two kids growing up in western Kentucky, is a film experience unlike any other. Almost all the cinematic rules are broken, and the results are somehow transcendent. Featuring two actors, very little dialogue and grainy footage, it would appear that Jeter’s film was more like home-video footage than a 2012 arthouse indie. This rawness and sparseness works wonders, creating a sense of reality and endearment.
Jess (Sarah Hagan) has already graduated high school, but she spends the summer like a child. Her mother has moved out, leaving behind promises that one day she’ll return. Her father is distant and perhaps violent. Her only friend is Moss (Austin Vickers), her younger first cousin who wiles away the summer days in the fields and abandoned houses of Kentucky. Together, these title characters find a world of their own, one where dreams collide with nightmares, where parents are only present in spirit, where anything seems possible. They are free and depressed, working through the two extremes in a split second.

A Treasure of Bird Island is a tale that illustrates the curse of the gold and the blessing of working for the people.
Inspired by a Persian fairy tale, and told in the ornate style of illustrated Persian manuscripts, Zeman's first feature is set on a remote island, where the inhabitants discover a legendary treasure that brings them both joy and grief. For the first time in Bird Island, Zeman combined stop-motion puppetry and traditional animation to create a timeless, glittering world of wonders.

Director Thornton Freeland's fun and sometimes still thrilling 1933 musical Flying Down to Rio is famous now, if at all, as the first teaming of Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers, in what turned out to be the first of their 10 glorious movie teamings. But here, alas, they are show-stopping side issues as accordionist and assistant band leader Fred Ayres and orchestra vocalist Honey Hale.
And so the movie officially stars Gene Raymond, who gives a dull performance as the aviator, composer and band leader hero Roger Bond, who is swept off his feet by the fiery and exotic Brazilian beauty Belinha de Rezende (Dolores del Rio).
But it would be a forgotten film if Astaire and Rogers weren’t doing their exhilarating ‘Carioca’ dance number together, sung by Alice Gentle, Movita Castaneda and Etta Moten, and danced by Astaire and Rogers and the chorus. It is the team’s first dance together and they dance with their foreheads touching.

Agnes Varda and JR have things in common: a passion for and the exploration of images in general, and more precisely, for places and for ways of showing, sharing, and exhibiting them. Agnes chose cinema. JR chose to create open air photography galleries. When Agnes and JR met in 2015, they immediately wanted to work together, to shoot a film in France, far from cities, during a trip in JR's photographic (and magical) truck.
Varda and JR journey in a van through rural France, taking pictures and creating art, while forming a devoted unlikely if friendship. The van is equipped as a portable photo booth with a printing facility, so they can create colossal mural pictures of faces and places they wish to celebrate.
They meet and celebrate bunches of rightly admiring people along the way as they create their art and reflect on lives and times. And they end up at the house of that other famous French New Wave film director Jean-Luc Godard, with hilarious results.
