  • Standing with the Women of Burma to End Rape and Sexual Violence
    110 high profile women stand with the women of Burma to end rape and sexual violence Standing with the women of Burma to end rape and sexual No. 1 violence July 2010 www.burmacampaign.org.uk 110 high profile women stand with the women of Burma to end rape and sexual violence 110 high profile women, including Dame Judi Dench, Annie Lennox, Jo Brand, Gillian Anderson, Imelda Staunton, Julie Walters and Zoë Wanamaker, are standing with the women of Burma to end rape and sexual violence. In the pledge the high profile women, who also include activists and politicians, have vowed to support: • An investigation into rape and sexual violence by the Burmese military against ethnic women and girls. • An end to impunity for rape and other forms of sexual violence in Burma. • Support for victims. • The inclusion of women at every political level in Burma including the peace negotiations between the Burmese government and the ethnic armed political groups. • Burma’s Rape Law to be in line with international human rights standards to outlaw rape in marriage. Rape and sexual violence by the Burmese army • The use of rape and sexual violence by Burma’s armed forces is ongoing with impunity and reports of rape have increased over the last years. • Although winning a landslide victory in national elections in November 2015, the National League for Democracy (NLD), led by Nobel Peace Prize winner Aung San Suu Kyi, will not have control over the Burmese army when it takes office in April 2016. Therefore, there is a possibility that army rape will continue even with the new NLD-led government in place.

  • And the Ship Sails On
    And The Ship Sails On by Serge Toubiana at the occasion of the end of his term as Director-General of the Cinémathèque française. Within just a few days, I shall come to the end of my term as Director-General of the Cinémathèque française. As of February 1st, 2016, Frédéric Bonnaud will take up the reins and assume full responsibility for this great institution. We shall have spent a great deal of time in each other's company over the past month, with a view to inducting Frédéric into the way the place works. He has been able to learn the range of our activities, meet the teams and discover all our on-going projects. This friendly transition from one director-general to the next is designed to allow Frédéric to function at full-steam from day one. The handover will have been, both in reality and in the perception, a peaceful moment in the life of the Cinémathèque, perhaps the first easy handover in its long and sometimes turbulent history. That's the way we want it - we being Costa-Gavras, chairman of our board, and the regulatory authority, represented by Fleur Pellerin, Minister of Culture and Communication, and Frédérique Bredin, Chairperson of the CNC, France's National Centre for Cinema and Animation. The peaceful nature of this handover offers further proof that the Cinémathèque has entered into a period of maturity and is now sufficiently grounded and self-confident to start out on the next chapter without trepidation. But let me step back in time. Since moving into the Frank Gehry building at 51 rue de Bercy, at the behest of the Ministry of Culture, the Cinémathèque française has undergone a profound transformation.

  • Isabelle Huppert
    Les Visiteurs du Soir présente ISABELLE HUPPERT LIT SADE Juliette et Justine, le vice et la vertu © Peter Lindbergh Textes réunis par Raphaël Enthoven Création le 27 janvier 2013 Palais des Beaux-Arts de Bruxelles (Bozar) En tournée en 2013-2014 Booking - Fabienne Calonier 01 44 93 02 02 / [email protected] PRÉSENTATION On présente souvent l’œuvre de Sade comme une «antiutopie», une dystopie où le meurtre, la violence sexuelle, l’anthropophagie sont loués pourvu qu’ils permettent aux puissants de jouir sans entrave. Isabelle Huppert prête sa voix à deux figures emblématiques de l’œuvre de Sade : Justine et Juliette, deux sœurs aux destins opposés, l’une perdue par la vertu, l’autre triomphant par le vice. À travers elles, Raphaël Enthoven interroge le malaise qui pèse sur la production littéraire et le message du sulfureux écrivain : « Je ne m'explique pas la raison pour laquelle le Marquis de Sade continue - légitimement - de nous choquer. (…) Son éloge du vice et l'outrance des orgies qu'il décrit ne suffisent pas à comprendre la persistance du dégoût qu'il inspire. Le mal vient de plus loin. Sade, c'est l'ombre des Lumières, la face cachée du soleil. Son immoralisme est d'abord un amoralisme. Sous les imprécations du mécréant contre la « chimère déifique », il faut entendre le refus de croire que le monde est là pour nous faire plaisir. C'est peut-être là qu'il est indigeste : dans la constance avec laquelle il construit une philosophie - et même une éthique - sur le socle d'un monde glacial et inhumain ».

The first was the news that, after 22 years as délégué général, Gilles Jacob stepped up to become Président while handing down the reins to Thierry Frémaux, the latter now divides his time between Cannes and duties as head of the Institute Lumière in Lyons. The other was the presence on the Croisette of seven previous Palme d’Or directors: Francis Ford Coppola (The Conversation, 1974, and Apocalypse Now, 1979), Ermanno Olmi (The Tree of Wooden Clogs, 1978), Shohei Imamura (The Ballad of Narayama, 1983, and The Eel, 1997), David Lynch (Wild at Heart, 1990), Joel and Ethan Coen (Barton Fink, 1991), and Abbas Kiarostami (The Taste of Cherries, 1997). One might add, too, that over the past quarter century each of their eight award-winning films helped considerably to set the tone and style of the world’s mostrevered film festival. Apocalypse Now Redux In the case of Apocalypse Now -- aka Apocalypse Now Redux, to denote a new version of an old film -- Francis Ford Coppola returned to Cannes with the completed version of his work-in-progress presented here 22 years ago. No less than 53 minutes were added to the re-edited 203-minute version, in addition to a re-mastered Technicolor transfer and a re-mastered soundtrack.
