But in the performing arts, especially acting, women artists were found in large numbers in this period. At first they acted on the stage in theatre groups. Later, with the coming of cinema, they began to act for the screen. Cinema gave them a channel for expressing their acting talent as no other medium had before. Apart from acting, some of them even began to direct films at this early stage in the history of Indian cinema. Thus, acting and film direction was not an exclusive arena of men where women were mostly subjects. It was an arena where women became the creators of this art form and they commanded a lot of fame, glory and money in this field. In this module, we will study about some of these women.

Gencarnya media-media yang mengatakan bahwa otak serangan itu adalah teroris muslim, membawa khalayak kepada konstruksi identitas agama Islam sebagai agama yang penuh dengan kekerasan dan radikalisme. Apalagi setelah beberapa serangan lain yang mengatasnamakan perbuatan tersebut sebagai perbuatan jihad, karena dilakukan atas nama Allah SWT dan untuk menegakkan agama Islam. Sehingga, tidak kata yang lebih populer menyimbolkan kekerasan dan teror atas nama Islam di atas selain jihad, padahal konsep jihad yang seperti itu tidak sesuai dengan agama Islam yang rahmatan lil ‟alamin. Bukan hanya media cetak saja, film sebagai salah satu media massa juga menggambarkan hal tersebut dengan cara yang berbeda.

  • Emergent Cinema of Pakistan

    Emergent Cinema of Pakistan

    Bāzyāft-30 (Jan-Jun 2017) Urdu Department, Punjab University, Lahore 13 Emergent Cinema of Pakistan Ahmad Bilal ABSTRACT: Pakistan and India shared a common history, language and cultural values, so the form of the film is also similar. The biggest challenge for Pakistan film industry (Lollywood), since partition in 1947, was to achieve a form that can formulate its unique identity. Indian films had been facing an official ban from 1960s to 2007, which initially had helped the local film industry, as, in 1970s and 80s, it was producing more than 100 films per year. However, the ban had diminished the competition and become the biggest reason of the decline of Pakistani film. The number of films and their production value had been deteriorating in the last two decades. In 2007, the official screening Indian films have been allowed by Pakistani authorities. It, on the one side, has damaged the traditional films, “established cinema”, of Pakistan, and on the other side, it has reactivated the old question of distinctive cultural face of Pakistan. Simultaneously, the technology has been shifted from analogue to digital, which have allowed young generation of moviemakers to experiment with the medium, as it is relatively economical. The success of Khuda Kay Liay (2007) and Bol (2011) have initiated a new kind of cinema, which is termed as “emergent cinema” by this research. This paper investigates emergent cinema to define its elements and to establish its relation with the established cinema of Pakistan. It also discloses the link of emergent cinema with the media liberation Act of 2002, which has allowed a range of subjects.
