MAY AT THE IFI Red Turtle The For almost twelve months we have been busy at the IFI We believe that this year, the 25th anniversary of our developing a new strategy to drive the organisation for home here in Temple Bar, is the perfect time to publish our the next five years. Through the IFI Strategy 2017–2022, ambitious new plans for the future, and anticipate that our we wanted to ensure that the IFI continues to deliver world- most exciting times are yet to come. class programmes, and that it remains one of Ireland’s most effective and influential cultural organisations, attracting Later this month, we’re delighted to be unveiling the IFI a significant, loyal and engaged audience. Strategy 2017–2022. We hope you find our plans for the next five years as exciting as we do. A key component for us during this strategy development was to engage as many people as possible in a Ross Keane consultation process. With this in mind, we looked to our Director various constituencies for feedback and input. We included audiences through market research; we presented seven key questions to the IFI Council and sought their input through group sessions; the IFI Board and staff offered their unique insights into the process; and we participated in one-on- one meetings with many of our key partners, stakeholders and funders. This consultation process allowed us to examine what we do, how we do it, and why we do it. Through this process, key priorities for the organisation began to emerge, and what proved most interesting is that the same topics were highlighted by many of the groups and people we engaged with. This allowed us to form a very clear set of objectives for the future. From these priorities, we have been able to identify a key set of strategic outcomes which we aim to have achieved by 2022. 3 NEW RELEASES, IFI SEASONS & DOCS & IFI CLASSICS EVENTS CALENDAR CITIZEN JANE: OPENS MAY 5TH DATE SCREENING TIME BATTLE FOR THE CITY 2ND IFI CAFÉ BAR PUB QUIZ (FREE EVENT) 21.30 HARMONIUM OPENS MAY 5TH TUE 3RD WILD STRAWBERRIES & BEALTAINE: 11.00 THE JOURNEY OPENS MAY 5TH WED DARE TO BE WILD WITHOUT NAME OPENS MAY 5TH ACCESSIBLE SCREENING: LADY MACBETH* 18.30 FRANTZ OPENS MAY 12TH 5TH WITHOUT NAME + Q&A 18.15 MANHATTAN OPENS MAY 12TH FRI IN VIEW OPENS MAY 19TH 6TH IFI & IMMA: AS ABOVE, SO BELOW: WINGS OF DESIRE 16.00 SAT THE JOURNEY + Q&A 18.30 INVERSION OPENS MAY 19TH 7TH CITIZEN JANE + PANEL DISCUSSION 16.00 LA STRADA OPENS MAY 19TH SUN I AM NOT MADAME BOVARY OPENS MAY 26TH 9TH IRISH FOCUS: AMANDA COOGAN: 18.30 THE OTHER SIDE OF HOPE OPENS MAY 26TH TUE LONG NOW + Q&A 10TH IFI & IMMA: AS ABOVE, SO BELOW: 18.30 THE RED TURTLE OPENS MAY 26TH WED THE DOUBLE LIFE OF VÉRONIQUE 11TH CHINESE-LANGUAGE FILM FESTIVAL: 18.00 THU THE ASSASSIN + Q&A 12TH CHINESE-LANGUAGE FILM FESTIVAL: GET SOCIAL!

    Bergt 1 Siena Sofia Bergt Professor Insdorf Analysis of Film Language 26 February 2018 Colored Perspectives: Shading World War II Onscreen Films that deal with World War II—whether their narratives are concerned primarily with the war itself, the aura from which it emerged, or the ethos of its aftermath—have a particularly charged relationship to the presence or abjuration of color. As representations of a period that produced its own black-and-white archival footage, these worKs recKon with color not simply as an aesthetic choice, but also as a tool through which to define their own relationship to perspectival subjectivity and claims of historical authenticity. By examining the role of color in three vastly different World War II films— Andrzej Wajda’s black-and-white 1958 rendition of the war’s last 24 hours in “Ashes and Diamonds,” the Harlequin prewar chaos of Bob Fosse’s 1972 “Cabaret,” and the delicate balance of color and blacK-and-white characterizing the postwar divided Germany of Wim Wenders’ 1987 “Wings of Desire”—we may access a richer understanding, not simply of the films’ stylistic approaches, but also (and perhaps more significantly) of their relationship to both their origins and audience. Color, that is, acts in these three films as a chromatic guide by which to untangle each respective text’s taKe on both subjectivity and objectivity. Bergt 2 The best “entry point” into these stylistically and temporally distinct films’ chromatic motifs is through three strikingly analogous crowd scenes—each of which uses communal participation in a diegetically well-known song to highlight a moment of dramatic urgency or volatility.

  • 1,000 Films to See Before You Die Published in the Guardian, June 2007
    1,000 Films to See Before You Die Published in The Guardian, June 2007 http://film.guardian.co.uk/1000films/0,,2108487,00.html Ace in the Hole (Billy Wilder, 1951) Prescient satire on news manipulation, with Kirk Douglas as a washed-up hack making the most of a story that falls into his lap. One of Wilder's nastiest, most cynical efforts, who can say he wasn't actually soft-pedalling? He certainly thought it was the best film he'd ever made. Ace Ventura: Pet Detective (Tom Shadyac, 1994) A goofy detective turns town upside-down in search of a missing dolphin - any old plot would have done for oven-ready megastar Jim Carrey. A ski-jump hairdo, a zillion impersonations, making his bum "talk" - Ace Ventura showcases Jim Carrey's near-rapturous gifts for physical comedy long before he became encumbered by notions of serious acting. An Actor's Revenge (Kon Ichikawa, 1963) Prolific Japanese director Ichikawa scored a bulls-eye with this beautifully stylized potboiler that took its cues from traditional Kabuki theatre. It's all ballasted by a terrific double performance from Kazuo Hasegawa both as the female-impersonator who has sworn vengeance for the death of his parents, and the raucous thief who helps him. The Addiction (Abel Ferrara, 1995) Ferrara's comic-horror vision of modern urban vampires is an underrated masterpiece, full- throatedly bizarre and offensive. The vampire takes blood from the innocent mortal and creates another vampire, condemned to an eternity of addiction and despair. Ferrara's mob movie The Funeral, released at the same time, had a similar vision of violence and humiliation.

  • HOU HSIAO-HSIEN Retrospectiva in Filmoteca De Catalunya in Collaboration with the Asian Film Festival
    HOU HSIAO-HSIEN Retrospectiva in Filmoteca de Catalunya in collaboration with the Asian Film Festival. Barcelona With “The Assassin”, this director, representing the new wave of Taiwanese cinema, born in mainland China (Meixian, Guangdong, 1947), was for many of his current followers a big discovery, thanks to the Best Director Award that was granted in the edition of the Cannes Festival of 2015. This discovery was related to the background aesthetics that prevails in his filmography, with more than twenty titles, from his beginning, in 1980, when he made his debut feature, until nowadays. This retrospective traces the film-maker’s career from “The boys from Fengkuei” (1983), his fourth film, to “The Assassin” (2015). Hou Hisao-Hsien is now carrying out his newest project, and he will not be able to attend the presentation of his retrospective for this reason. In spite of being repeatedly awarded in festivals such as the ones held in Venice and in Cannes, his filmography is far from being known in the West as it would be expected of someone who is the author of films such as “A City of Sadness” (Leone d’Oro, in Venice, 1989), “the Puppetmaster” (Special Jury Prize, in Cannes, 1993) or “The Assassin”, already mentioned. In 1995, the San Sebastian Film Festival dedicated him a retrospective, but since then to date, Hou Hsiao-Hsien has made more than eight titles, few of which have been shown on the screens in Spain. The current retrospective of Filmoteca de Catalunya and Casa Asia will allow the audience to access some of the most outstanding films concerning the poetic that goes through them from beginning to end, as it is perceived in “Flowers of Shanghai” (1998), “Millenium Mambo” (2011), which has been so much compared to “In the Mood for Love” by Wong Kar-Wai, “Café Lumière” (2003), a homage to Yasujiro Ozu, or the three romantic tales of “three Times” (2005), among other titles, fifteen of which are now presented in Filmoteca also forming part of the program of the edition of “Asian Film Festival.

  • Intermedialtranslation As Circulation
    Journal of World Literature 5 (2020) 568–586 brill.com/jwl Intermedial Translation as Circulation Chu Tien-wen, Taiwan New Cinema, and Taiwan Literature Jessica Siu-yin Yeung soas University of London, London, UK [email protected] Abstract We generally believe that literature first circulates nationally and then scales up through translation and reception at an international level. In contrast, I argue that Taiwan literature first attained international acclaim through intermedial translation during the New Cinema period (1982–90) and was only then subsequently recognized nationally. These intermedial translations included not only adaptations of literature for film, but also collaborations between authors who acted as screenwriters and film- makers. The films resulting from these collaborations repositioned Taiwan as a mul- tilingual, multicultural and democratic nation. These shifts in media facilitated the circulation of these new narratives. Filmmakers could circumvent censorship at home and reach international audiences at Western film festivals. The international success ensured the wide circulation of these narratives in Taiwan. Keywords Taiwan – screenplay – film – allegory – cultural policy 1 Introduction We normally think of literature as circulating beyond the context in which it is written when it obtains national renown, which subsequently leads to interna- tional recognition through translation. In this article, I argue that the contem- porary Taiwanese writer, Chu Tien-wen (b. 1956)’s short stories and screenplays first attained international acclaim through the mode of intermedial transla- tion during the New Cinema period (1982–90) before they gained recognition © jessica siu-yin yeung, 2020 | doi:10.1163/24056480-00504005 This is an open access article distributed under the terms of the cc by 4.0Downloaded license.

  • ALSO LIKE LIFE: the FILMS of HOU HSIAO-HSIEN New Addition: Hou Hsiao-Hsien in Conversation at BFI Southbank – Monday 14 September
    ALSO LIKE LIFE: THE FILMS OF HOU HSIAO-HSIEN New addition: Hou Hsiao-Hsien In Conversation at BFI Southbank – Monday 14 September Thursday 13 August 2015, London The BFI is delighted to announce that one of the leading figures of the Taiwanese New Wave Hou Hsiao-Hsien, whose latest film The Assassin won Best Director at this year’s Cannes Film Festival, will make a very rare visit to the UK to take part in an In Conversation event at BFI Southbank. The event, which takes place on Monday 14 September, is part of Also Life Life: The Films of Hou Hsiao- Hsien, a major retrospective celebrating Hou’s work, which takes place from 2 Sept – 6 Oct 2015 at BFI Southbank. Hou-Hsiao-Hsien has helped put Taiwanese cinema on the international map with work that explores the island’s rapidly changing present as well as its turbulent, often bloody past, and is one of the best examples in world cinema of a director who found his own distinctive style and voice while working on the job. The season will kick off with Cute Girl (1980), Cheerful Wind (1981) and The Green Green Grass of Home (1982), all starring Hong Kong pop star Kenny Bee; these early films offer a mixture of comedy and romance and begin to show Hou’s interest in Taiwan’s regional differences, a key theme of his later films. Hou’s other early films such as The Sandwich Man (1983) and The Boys from Fengkuei (1983) dramatised engaging life stories – including his own in The Time to Live and the Time to Die (1985).

Emishi, similar to the other native tribes of Northern Japan are oft en seen as non- civilized barbar- ians as opposed to the Yamato race. 1 Th ough Princess Mononoke is set in the Muromachi period (1333– 1573), when the Yamato society had conquered all the Northern tribes, the strong Emishi village of Princess Mononoke recalls Japan’s pre- historic times.
