  • Appel Candidatures
    APPEL À CANDIDATURE ATELIER DE RÉALISATION DE FILMS DOCUMENTAIRES du MARDI 31 OCTOBRE au LUNDI 18 DÉCEMBRE 2017 ALLIANCE FRANÇAISE de BANGUI Cet atelier de formation s'adresse à tous les Centrafricains, femmes et hommes, désireux de se tourner vers la réalisation de films documentaires et soucieux de rendre compte de la réalité de leur pays. Il ne concerne pas seulement des personnes qui auraient déjà une expérience de la réalisation, mais s'adresse aussi bien à des personnes venant d'horizons différents (journalistes, fixeurs, responsables associatifs, etc.) attirés par ce moyen d’expression artistique. Aucune connaissance technique n'est requise. Les participants à l'atelier seront choisis à la fois pour leur motivation, pour leur aptitude à observer la réalité qui les entoure et leur capacité à travailler en groupe. LES ATELIERS VARAN Créés par Jean Rouch en 1981, les Ateliers Varan sont une école de cinéma unique en son genre, née du désir de former des réalisateurs de pays émergents à s’emparer des outils du cinéma documentaire pour refléter leurs réalités propres. Varan n’est pas une école au sens classique et académique du terme : les méthodes de travail y poussent à l’extrême le principe d’enseignement par la pratique : tout s’articule, pour chaque stagiaire, autour de la fabrication de films « en grandeur réelle ». Cet apprentissage du “regard documentaire” s’appuie sur une pédagogie qui s’est rôdée au fil de stages et d’ateliers menés sur les cinq continents. Le but est de décomplexer les participants face au langage cinématographique et de définir le rôle et la place du cinéaste, ses enjeux éthiques par rapport aux personnes filmées et au monde qui l’entoure.

    Sergey Abashin Institute of Ethnology and Anthropology of the Russian Academy of Sciences (Moscow) [email protected] Cultural Processes and Transcultural Influences In Contemporary Central Asia Issues addressed and the aims of the text What is this text about? What are the goals of its author? Some preliminary explanations may help shape the expectations of the reader and prevent possible disappointment. My main purpose is to give a three-dimensional overview of the state of cultural affairs in Central Asian societies after the states in the region achieved independence and to describe the main current tendencies defining local cultural processes and transcultural influences in the long term. I am interested in such themes as: culture and the changing political landscape; the institutional environment for culture; culture and education; culture and language; culture and ethnic minorities; culture and religion; the cultural marketplace; culture and business; culture and globalisation. My questions: how is the Soviet experience of "cultural construction” used and transformed in the modern nation-states of Central Asia? what restrictions on cultural production are imposed by the political situation and economic possibilities of these countries? how do the processes of isolationism and globalisation interact? what changes are being wrought by the islamisation of these societies? what is the future potential of secular, European-style, culture? who are the main players in the region’s cultural space? These questions might seem too general, but without considering and judging them, any attempt to understand the essence of events in narrower fields of cultural life is, surely, doomed to failure. In an “analytical note”, a number of general recommendations for the work of international organisations in the cultural sphere of Central Asia are presented.

Qu’ils surprennent le voyageur et passionnent le chercheur en sciences sociales, à coup sûr. Qu’ils soient un enjeu de tensions entre citoyens et hommes politiques, peut-être bien. Les murs peints de l’Iran et plus spécifiquement ceux de Téhéran, devenus des médias du pouvoir après avoir été des rebelles et des diffuseurs d’information durant l’effervescence révolutionnaire de 1978-1979, scandent pour la plupart aujourd’hui encore des discours officiels sur les milliers de mètres carrés qu’ils occupent. Parmi eux, environ 20 % concernent des peintures de combattants de la guerre Iran-Irak (1980-1988)1 devenus des martyrs, c’est-à-dire des hommes morts en défendant le pays et le système politique et idéologique du régime, ce qui leur vaut ce titre (shahid) de haute importance coranique (celui qui se bat dans la voie de Dieu) (Cook, 2007) et central dans la 1 Chiffre donné en 2015 par Mohsen Soleimani, responsable du Bureau de l’embellissement de la ville entre 2013 et 2015 (Entretien M.

I analyze different visual and narrative strategies developed by the directors of youth cinema during the Brezhnev period as mechanisms for circumventing ideological control over cultural production.
