James Turner (University of Hull) Thesis submitted to Utrecht University, Faculty of Humanities and University of Hull, Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences 2015 Acknowledgements “Freedom is always the freedom of dissenters. But how free are they? And how free do they think?” Rosa Luxemburg I wish to express my sincere thanks to the Rosa-Luxemburg Foundation for five years of ideational and monetary sponsorship that made it possible to pursue my studies. My Rosa-Luxemburg scholarship and the many beautiful comrades I was honored to meet during this time hopefully assisted me to become one of many freely thinking dissenters, because “if 'freedom' becomes 'privilege', the workings of political freedom are broken” (Luxemburg, Die russische Revolution. Eine kritische Würdigung, 1920: 109). I am also grateful to dr. Christine Quinan, lecturer, in the Department of Media and Culture Studies – Gender Studies at Utrecht University (NL), and dr. James Turner, lecturer, in the Department of Social Sciences at University of Hull (UK). I am extremely thankful and indebted to them for sharing their expertise, sincere and valuable guidance and encouragement. I also place on record, my sense of gratitude for my beloved father who never ceases to make me feel proud for my transnational working-class roots. From him I inherit and want to pay justice to a family-line of political activism that even resists times of unjust persecution, torture, and exile. THE DISPLEASURES OF HYBRIDITY A CRITICAL APPROACH TO CINEMA BY AND ABOUT PEOPLE WHO MIGRATED FROM THE REGIONS OF TURKEY AND NORTHERN KURDISTAN TO GERMANY Filiz Emine Dağcı, M.A. Utrecht University (NL) & University of Hull (UK), 2015 Supervisors: dr. Christine Quinan & dr. James Turner Abstract The thesis provides a critical perspective onto cinema by/about people who migrated from Turkey and Northern Kurdistan to Germany and their descendants – the post-migrants. As the topic deals with issues of cinema, I first discuss the virtual-real character of images with Slavoj Žižek's take on the Lacanian triad, the imaginary, the symbolic and the real. This leads me to theorize the virtual character of power to underscore that the production of images are a key factor in the creation of European hegemony. I then hint to the danger of victimizing (post-) migrants in the global North as solely located at the margins, which obscures moments of possible complicity in hegemonic forces. In my analysis of current academic literature on the cinema under consideration, I found a predominant teleological narrative of progress to freedom and self-re(-)presentation, which is a frame that re(-)produces colonial concepts of time and development. Despite that more recently produced films are widely theorized to resist the hegemonic notion of monocultural nationality through a celebration of hybridity, I show that this can also be understood as a contribution to the 'ethnic' branding and a re(-)shaping of European virtual power. In the analysis section, a critical examination of Fatih Akın's film Im Juli (2000) in contrast with Yüksel Yavuz's Kleine Freiheit (2003) provides an alternative to the unquestioned application of the myth of equal mobility in Europe. By applying conceptual metaphor theory to Hark Bohm's film Yasemin (1988) and Akın's Crossing the Bridge (2005) I then contrast a multicultural with a feminist decolonial notion of the bridge-metaphor. Finally, I provide a counter-reading of cinematic history in making continuities of Orientalist narratives on (post-)migrant femininities and masculinities visible. The critical economic analysis of discourses on (post-)migrants offers an unconventional reading together of cinematic images and German labor market and citizenship policies.

Ali proposes to the fellow Turkish native to live with him in exchange for a monthly stipend. Ali’s son Nejat (Baki Davrak,) a university professor, seems disapproving about his boorish father’s choice. But the young German man quickly grows fond of kind Yeter, especially upon discovering most of her hard- earned money is sent home to Turkey for her daughter’s university studies. The accidental death of Yeter distances father and son even more, emotionally and physically. Nejat travels to Istanbul to begin an organized search for Yeter’s daughter, Ayten (Nurgul Yesilçay.) He decides to stay in Turkey and trades places with the owner of a German bookstore who goes home to Germany. What Nejat doesn’t know is that 20-something political activist Ayten is already in Germany, having fled the Turkish police.

Die große Menge an Neu- veröffentlichungen in diesen beiden Regionen hat dazu geführt, dass wir in der vorliegenden Ausgabe auf die Japan-Releases verzichtet haben. Das holen wir aber selbstverständlich im nächsten Newsletter nach. Für uns Filmsammler fing das neue Jahr bereits mit einer grandiosen Neuigkeit an: die Welt wird blau! Der schon viel zu lange anhaltende Konkurrenzkampf zwischen den beiden High Definition Lagern ”Blu-ray Disc” und ”HD DVD” scheint beige- legt zu sein. Anstoß dazu gab Warner Home Video mit der Ankündigung, ab Mitte 2008 High Definition Versionen nur noch im ”Blu- ray”-Format anzubieten und auf ”HD DVD” zu verzichten. Das löste eine gewaltige Lawine in der DVD-Branche aus und führte zu strahlen- den Gesichtern bei den Fans. Denn damit dürfte die ”HD DVD” auf lange Sicht gesehen vom Markt verschwinden. Logisch dass Toshiba als ”HD DVD”-Verfechter nun alles erdenkliche tut, um sein System am Leben zu erhalten. Immerhin hat man zumindest mit Paramount derzeit noch einen der Großen mit im Boot.

  • Network Films: a Global Genre?
    Network Films: a Global Genre? Vivien Claire Silvey December 2012 A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of The Australian National University. ii This thesis is solely my original work, except where due reference is given. iii Acknowledgements I am extremely grateful for all the time and effort my dear supervisor Cathie Summerhayes has invested throughout this project. Her constant support, encouragement, advice and wisdom have been absolutely indispensable. To that master of words, puns and keeping his hat on during the toughest times of semester, Roger Hillman, I extend profound gratitude. Roger‟s generosity with opportunities for co-publishing, lecturing and tutoring, and enthusiasm for all things Turkish German, musical and filmic has been invaluable. For all our conversations and film-loans, I warmly say to Gino Moliterno grazie mille! I am indebted to Gaik Cheng Khoo, Russell Smith and Fiona Jenkins, who have provided valuable information, lecturing and tutoring roles. I am also grateful for the APA scholarship and for all the helpful administration staff in the School of Cultural Inquiry. At the heart of this thesis lies the influence of my mother Elizabeth, who has taken me to see scores of “foreign” and “art” films over the years, and my father Jerry, with whom I have watched countless Hollywood movies. Thank you for instilling in me a fascination for all things “world cinema”, for your help, and for providing a caring home. To my gorgeous Dave, thank you for all your love, motivation, cooking and advice. I am enormously honoured to have you by my side.
