  • HARA KIRI Pressbook Español
    LA HISTORIA Con el fin de morir dignamente, Hanshiro, un samurái sin recursos, solicita llevar a cabo un suicidio ritual en la residencia del clan Li, liderado por Kageyu. Este intenta hacerle desistir de su idea contándole la trágica historia de un joven ronin, Motome, que poco tiempo atrás había llegado a ese lugar con las mismas intenciones. A pesar del impacto que provocan en él los espeluznantes detalles del destino de Motome, Hanshiro persiste en su decisión de morir con honor. Cuando llega el momento de practicarse el hara-kiri, realiza una última petición: desea ser asistido por tres tenientes de Kageyu que, por una extraña coincidencia, se encuentran ausentes. Receloso y enfadado, Kageyu pide explicaciones a Hanshiro. Este revela su vínculo con Motome y relata la historia agridulce de sus vidas. Kageyu pronto comprende que Hanshirose se ha sometido a una prueba de fuerza. La certitud del código de caballería de los samuráis empieza a tambalearse y resurge la humanidad. HARA-KIRI HARA-KIRI presenta dos universos opuestos: el doméstico y el militarista. La tensión dramática de la película está en la confluencia de ambos. Miike no necesita una retórica visual extravagante para poner de relieve la cruel inhumanidad del espíritu militar con los sombríos recovecos de un interior feudal, o la ardua supervivencia de una familia pobre con falta de luz de su humilde morada. Rescata algunos valores de directores nipones caídos en el olvido: una puesta en escena repleta de matices, una interpretación humana y sobria, una emoción intensa. Sin embargo, la película en ningún momento suscita una nostalgia de la “edad de oro” perdida del cine japonés.

  • Outlaw Masters of Japanese Film Dedicated to the Memory of My Late Father, Paul R
    Outlaw Masters Of Japanese Film Dedicated to the memory of my late father, Paul R. Desjardins, 1919–2003, who went through hell his last few years and was consequently unable to finish his own book on his pioneering work in electron microscopy (in the field of plant pathology). Also to my mother, Rosemary, who has had her own gauntlet to run in the last year and has managed to come out the other side. Both my parents have always been loyal, loving and there for me, never turning their backs on me during my extended period of raising hell. To my girl, Lynne Margulies, a truly great soulmate in all things, including the creative process. And to the memory of late director Kinji Fukasaku, a great inspiration to anyone daring to think of giving up in the face of adversity. I was lucky to get to know him and to consider him as a mentor as well as a friend. OUTLAW MASTERS OF JAPANESE FILM CHRIS D.

Seb Franklin Abstract This thesis examines the crucial diagnostic and productive roles that the concepts of minor and major practice, two interrelated modes of cultural production set out by Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari in Kafka: toward a Minor Literature (1975), have to play in the present era of ubiquitous digital technology and informatics that Deleuze himself has influentially described as the control society. In first establishing the conditions of majority and majority, Deleuze and Guattari’s historical focus in Kafka is the early twentieth century period of Franz Kafka’s writing, a period which, for Deleuze, marks the start of a transition between two types of society – the disciplinary society described by Michel Foucault in Discipline and Punish and the control society that is set apart by its distribution, indifferent technical processes and the replacement of the individual with the dividual in social and political thought.

Ozaki ne supporte plus le stress de son existence de criminel et présente des signes de paranoïa aggravée. Alors qu’il soupçonne un chien d’être anti-yakuza, son boss décide qu’il est temps de l’envoyer ad-patres et demande à Minami de l’emmener à Nagoya et de s’en débarasser. En route, Ozaki disparaît mystérieusement. S’ensuit un road-movie décalé dans la province de Nagoya, ville étrange peuplée de gens sortis tout droit de Twin Peaks. Oserez-vous venir à Nagoya ? LE RÉALISATEUR: Takashi MIIKE Takashi MIIKE est le réalisateur phare des années 90 au Japon. A la différence d'un Takeshi KITANO qui a dû attendre d'être reconnu à l'étranger avant d'obtenir un succès local, MIIKE a littéralement explosé en 1995 avec son second film cinéma Shinjuku Kuroshakai (Les Affranchis de Shinjuku). Proclamé " grande découverte de l'année " par la très respectueuse Association Japonaise des Producteurs de Films, MIIKE n'a depuis lors pas arrêté de créer l'événement à chaque nouvelle sortie d'un de ses films.
