  • « Les Monstres Attaquent »
    Arte Mare, festival de Bastia festivale di u filmu mediterraneu 3-10 octobre 2020 38ème édition « Les monstres attaquent » Tout ce qui m'intéresse c'est l'homme seul dans sa chambre, l'homme qui finit par avoir peur de lui-même. (...) Il n' y a pas, il n'y a plus de monstres face à nous : les monstres c'est nous. (Mario Bava) Loin de nous l’ambition de faire peur ! L’actualité s’en charge. Cette 38ème édition du Festival Méditerranéen de Bastia est pour reprendre la célèbre expression de Stendhal « un miroir que l’on promène le long d’un chemin ». Des films, des romans, des œuvres qui reflètent l’état du monde, ses crises, ses soubresauts mais qui sont avant tout le témoignage de l’insolite talent de leurs créateurs, de leur prodigieuse puissance d’évocation. Des monstres en somme si l’on en croit l’étymologie, qui nous alertent et nous avertissent, qui nous émerveillent aussi. Le travail artistique et les conditions de son épanouissement sont au cœur du dernier film d’Andreï Konchalovsky, Michel-Ange, Il peccato. Le cinéaste peint l’épuisant combat du génie tiraillé entre ses commanditaires, tenaillé par ses propres contradictions, poursuivi par ses visions et fasciné par un bloc de marbre aussi énorme et merveilleux qu’une baleine blanche et qu’il surnomme le Monstre. De monstres, il sera question également au cours du grand débat d’ouverture conduit par Christophe Bourseiller sur « Les affreux de l’histoire » en compagnie de Bruno Fuligni, Antoine Albertini, Hélios Azoulay, Clémentine Portier-Kaltenbach, Philippe di Folco.

MERRITT Under the Direction of Tiffany King, PhD ABSTRACT This thesis articulates motherhood as both a liberal and black humanist formation that conditions black women to mother and attempts to untether maternity from the black female body. By centering maternal ambivalence—the desire and distaste for motherhood—in selected works by black women, this thesis argues that black motherhood is an ambivalent site for some black women. Motherhood can be a site of joy and displeasure; sacrifice and refusal; life and death.

Plusieurs cinéastes détournent les codes du genre et les mélangent pour mieux nous surprendre. Véritable sensation du dernier festival de Cannes, J’ai perdu mon corps est un film d’animation d’une grande modernité qui conjugue différents rythmes et tonalités. Avec A White, White Day, Hlynur Pálmason réalise un faux polar autour de la quête obsessionnelle de vengeance d’un mari trompé. Dans Les héros ne meurent jamais, Aude Léa Rapin joue avec les codes de la fiction et du documentaire pour questionner nos convictions de spectateurs. Quant à Lorcan Finnegan, il enferme Jesse Eisenberg dans Vivarium, huis clos fantastique nourri des angoisses des jeunes trentenaires d’aujourd’hui. D’autres cinéastes explorent la cellule familiale, véritable concentré de vie qui nous apprend aussi la mort. Litigante de Franco Lolli dresse le portrait poignant d’une femme confrontée à un moment crucial de sa vie. Dans Ceniza Negra, Sofía Quirós Ubeda insuffle du réalisme magique au récit initiatique d’une adolescente élevée par ses grands-parents. Enfin, Dwelling in the Fuchun Mountains de Gu Xiaogang suit le destin d’une famille chinoise qui s’écoule au rythme de la nature. 58TH SEMAINE DE LA CRITIQUE (CRITICS’ Week) THE JOYOUS MIX OF GENRES Cette programmation est aussi l’occasion de découvrir deux Faithful to the mission of the Critics’ Week, this 58th selection regards singuliers venus du monde arabe.

The views expressed herein are those of the authors and not necessarily those of the funding agencies or the All Nations Hope AIDS Network. Content compiled by Wesley Keewatin, Two-Spirit Project Coordinator Edited by Bev Cardinal, Project Consultant Regina, Saskatchewan March 2009 All Nations Hope AIDS Network - March 2009 3 DISCLAIMER Many teachings introduced in the Two-Spirit Project manual were not defined by which First Nation group gave the specific teaching. Each teaching is only a reference and each individual is invited to find his/her own identity within his/her own First Nation group. The teachings vary from nation to nation although there are similarities. These teachings were introduced to show the significance of the teachings and how they may apply today. It is very important for the individual to find his/her own First Nation’s teachings because it is in the relevance of the teachings that connections are made with our ancestral memory. It is with this connection that the healing journey begins for many Aboriginal people. This manual also relies heavily on external sources and materials. Every effort has been made to accurately identify and credit the primary sources of this information.

This year we had an opportunity to get to know one another even better and break internal barriers that are inevitable for such diverse and wide-spread network as ours. This year meeting's overarching theme was solidarity & sisterhood: between countries, cultures and generations. We brought together African, Latina, Arab, Asian and European voices and the youngest of our participants celebrated her 14th birthday in Rabat. For three days, we worked - individually and collectively - on ourselves and our network's capacity to create a strong vision of the world in which women are afforded the space to generate, lead and sustain real positive change. We did this through feminist consciousness raising, critical debate, physical exercise and art. This report is a summary of activities and moments that filled this meeting in Rabat with reflections, laughter, tears and most beautiful memories...Thank you everyone who made this possible ! "We should always strive to identify leaders among migrant women. We should support them and encourage to be active not only in their communities but wider political life. A lot of these leaders are here with us in the network. We should not be afraid to put ourselves forward, be nominated, run for positions of power...even if we don't succeed it is important to be role models and send a message to other migrant women that our leadership is possible.." ENOMW PRESIDENT Salome Mbugua, AGM Welcome speech D E F I N I T I O N O F S I S T E R H O O D Sisterhood is not friendship It’s a woman akin Related to you by the pain you’ve been in.
