  • Apocalipse Trump: Notas Sobre a Convenção Nacional Do Partido Republicano 2016
    1 Apocalipse Trump: Notas sobre a Convenção Nacional do Partido Republicano 2016. Leonardo Bueno França1 Entre os dias 18 e 21 de julho, o Partido Republicano realizou sua Convenção Nacional para oficializar a escolha do empresário e personalidade de mídia Donald Trump como candidato à presidência dos EUA. O artigo tem por escopo analisar o perfil dos palestrantes assim como seus discursos. *** Às vésperas de sua Convenção Nacional, os republicanos ainda não tinham confiança de que Trump conseguiria unificar o partido ainda que ele demonstre uma capacidade brilhante para canalizar o descontentamento entre os eleitores republicanos. “Um padrão que emerge é que as pessoas que apoiam Trump dentro do partido tendem a ser funcionários não eleitos, alguns deles militares reformados e líderes de grupos cristãos conservadores”2. A desunião é tão significativa que vários notáveis do partido têm endossado apoio à adversária direta Hillary Clinton ou mesmo ao candidato Gary Johnson do Partido Libertário, outros afirmam apoiar o candidato do partido, mas sem oferecer um endosso oficial. A lista é extensa3. 1 Logo no primeiro dia, a esposa do magnata, Melania Trump, enfrentou uma acusação de plágio de um discurso utilizado por Michelle Obama na Convenção Democrata de 2008. Meredith McIver, funcionária das Organizações Trump, assumiu o plágio. O tema levantado no primeiro dia de convenção se focou em como tornar a América segura novamente (Make America Safe Again). Cinco pontos a serem destacados neste primeiro dia. Primeiro, a ofensiva ao caráter e à atuação de Hillary Clinton à frente da Secretaria de Estado, especificamente sobre o ataque ao consulado dos EUA na Líbia em 2012 (Benghazi).

  • Blondes in the Jungle
    BLONDES IN THE JUNGLE A film by Ball Deep International 2009. 48 minutes, Color, 16mm on DV. WINNER: "Best Narrative Feature", 2009 Chicago Underground Film Festival OFFICIAL SELECTION: International Film Festival Rotterdam 2010 OFFICIAL SELECTION: 2010 NewFilmmakers NY Winter Festival OFFICIAL SELECTION: Columbia Gorge International Film Festival 2010 OFFICIAL SELECTION: The 11th Melbourne Underground Film Festival 2010 Short Synopsis Comedy by artist-filmmakers Lev Kalman and Whitney Horn. On a hunt for the Fountain of Youth, three teenagers in 1980's Honduras buy drugs, harm nature and have magical encounters. Tons of landscape footage, a meditation on Mayan Archaeology and a heavy TV teen vibe highlight this very funny impulse-buy spiritual adventure. Original soundtrack by 1987 World Beat band El Jefe and The Executive Look, featuring contributions by members of Aa, Asobi Seksu, Birthday Boyz, Vampire Weekend and Julianna Barwick. http://www.blondesinthejungle.com Long Synopsis The film begins silently, the camera wandering through the jungle. We hear a distant drumming and follow the sound to reveal Armani Rivette, a Zack Morris-looking drug-dealer, shirtless, dancing alone to the music in his headphones. A title appears: “HONDURAS 1987.” Sitting on a porch are Jerome, Chino and Amber. Jerome is the teen child of white expats and Chino and Amber (brother and sister, 18 and 19 respectively) are visiting him from New York. They are lazily finishing their breakfast. A waterfall rumbles in the distance. They smoke drugs and listen to the radio as Jerome translates the show they're listening to. It is the story of the Children's Crusade, how thousands of young people in the middle ages went on a quest to Jerusalem only to be swindled, sold into slavery, and drown in the Mediterranean Sea.
