  • 43E Festival International Du Film De La Rochelle Du 26 Juin Au 5 Juillet 2015 Le Puzzle Des Cinémas Du Monde
    43e Festival International du Film de La Rochelle du 26 juin au 5 juillet 2015 LE PUZZLE DES CINÉMAS DU MONDE Une fois de plus nous revient l’impossible tâche de synthétiser une édition multiforme, tant par le nombre de films présentés que par les contextes dans lesquels ils ont été conçus. Nous ne pouvons nous résoudre à en sélectionner beaucoup moins, ce n’est pas faute d’essayer, et de toutes manières, un contexte économique plutôt inquiétant nous y contraint ; mais qu’une ou plusieurs pièces essentielles viennent à manquer au puzzle mental dont nous tentons, à l’année, de joindre les pièces irrégulières, et le Festival nous paraîtrait bancal. Finalement, ce qui rassemble tous ces films, qu’ils soient encore matériels ou virtuels (50/50), c’est nous, sélectionneuses au long cours. Nous souhaitons proposer aux spectateurs un panorama généreux de la chose filmique, cohérent, harmonieux, digne, sincère, quoique, la sincérité… Ambitieux aussi car nous aimons plus que tout les cinéastes qui prennent des risques et notre devise secrète pourrait bien être : mieux vaut un bon film raté qu’un mauvais film réussi. Et enfin, il nous plaît que les films se parlent, se rencontrent, s’éclairent les uns les autres et entrent en résonance dans l’esprit du festivalier. En 2015, nous avons procédé à un rééquilibrage géographique vers l’Asie, absente depuis plusieurs éditions de la programmation. Tout d’abord, avec le grand Hou Hsiao-hsien qui en est un digne représentant puisqu’il a tourné non seulement à Taïwan, son île natale mais aussi au Japon, à Hongkong et en Chine.

  • The “Simorq” Project Is an Ambitious Initiative Designed to Acquaint the Public with Iran’S Historical Culture, and to Transcend Boundaries
    The “Simorq” project is an ambitious initiative designed to acquaint the public with Iran’s historical culture, and to transcend boundaries. A legendary supernatural bird in Persian literature Ferdowsi’s poetic opus, the Shahnameh, is not only one of the most extraordinary works in Persian literature – it ranks among the masterpieces of the world’s literary treasures. In sheer magnitude, with over fifty thousand verses, our national epic comprises more than twice the number of verses of Homer’s Odyssey and Iliad and twenty times more than the German epic, Nibelungensage. The Shahnameh is indeed unequalled as a literary work. And if we look at other Persian poets who have explored the themes of love, despair, envy and zeal, we find that while Fer- dowsi deals with the same themes, he also unveils the science of Iranian epic history and legends and leads the reader deep into the spirit of his characters, probing a vast array of human feeling. He carries the reader with him to the battlefields and the feasts. He paints these scenes masterfully, giving the stories vibrant, tangible expression for his readers. The difficulty of using musical narration to portray Ferdowsi’s epic stories lies herein. Simorq, the story of the birth and growing up of Zaal and his love for Roodabeh, the daughter of King Mehrab of Kabal, is one of the most beautiful and, in structural terms, complete facets of the Shahnameh. In this story, Ferdowsi has interwoven human preoccupations with luck, fate and destiny, greed, fear and disgrace with the need and desire for fame and love, under the canopy of the epic story.
