  • Goodbye to Film School: Please Close the Door on Your Way Out
    7 Goodbye to Film School: Please Close the Door on Your Way Out T o b y M i l l e r am not an expert on film schools, though I used to work in one. Nor have I I undertaken an exhaustive analysis of the six hundred such entities that sup- posedly exist across the United States. 1 But here I am, writing about that sym- bolic behemoth of the film school, the United States. Three film schools stand out among the putative six hundred: the University of Southern California (USC—a private university in Los Angeles), the University of California Los Angeles (UCLA—part of the state’s é lite ten-campus public sys- tem), and New York University (NYU—also private, and where I taught for over a decade). The Hollywood Reporter ’s list of the top 25 film schools has those three in the top five, along with the Beijing Film Academy and the American Film Institute.2 I am particularly interested in these three universities because they are Research-One schools and hence produce ruling-class hegemons and scholarly researchers as well as factory fodder / creatives for world cinema. And their film academies started early—USC in 1929, UCLA in 1947, and NYU in 1965. I’ve drawn on experience, anecdotal repute, and political-economic-environmental analysis to investigate the culture of these film schools, their employment impact, their cost, and their future. Here’s my headline: film schools shouldn’t exist. They should be schools of media and cultural studies, dedicated to displacing both the residual humani- ties (textual analysis and history) and the emergent humanities (business stud- ies).

  • Banlieue Films Festival (BFF): Growing Cinephilia and Filmmaking in Senegal
    Banlieue Films Festival (BFF): Growing cinephilia and filmmaking in Senegal Estrella Sendra SOAS, University of London and Winchester School of Art, University of Southampton [email protected] http://orcid.org/0000-0001-8344-2928 ABSTRACT This article examines small film festivals in the socio-cultural context of Senegal. Through the case study of the Banlieue Films Festival (BFF) in Dakar, founded in 2013 by Abdel Aziz Boye, I analyse the crucial role of festivals in strengthening the film industry, fostering cinephilia and encouraging the practical application of cultural policies. I suggest that contemporary film production, particularly, in the past five years (2015-2020) has been significantly shaped by grassroots initiatives that have eventually been transformed into structures. I also explore the role of “rooted cosmopolitans”, borrowing Kwame Appiah’s term in relation to the figure of Abdel Aziz Boye, who founded Cine UCAD at the Universite Cheikh Anta Diop, in Dakar, Cine Banlieue, and, upon returning to Senegal from France, the BFF. I discuss BFF’s various forms of legacy, concluding that it has been an active agent in forging a new cinephilia and inspiring a wave of young filmmakers in Senegal. KEYWORDS Banlieue Films Festival; Senegalese filmmaking; cinephilia; “rooted cosmopolitan”; film training; ethnography. Introduction Senegal enjoys an emblematic position in the history of African cinema. Following the increasing independence of African countries from French colonialism, Senegal became the home of pioneering filmmakers who would soon acquire international recognition, such as Ousmane Sembe ne (1923- 2007), Safi Faye (n. 1943), and Djibril Diop Mambe ty (1945-1998). These filmmakers sought to decolonise minds through the medium of film, and in doing so, to create a cinema from, by and for African people.

  • INTERVIEW: JOKO ANWAR for This Edition of IMAJI, We Conducted a Deep Interview with Joko Anwar, Had a Peek at His Childhood
    INTERVIEW: JOKO ANWAR For this edition of IMAJI, we conducted a deep interview with Joko Anwar, had a peek at his childhood and reviewed his creative processes in filmmaking. Joko Anwar is a household name in Indonesia, well-known to the public as one of the country’s celebrated film directors. His movies include Janji Joni (2005), Modus Anomali (2012), Pintu Terlarang (2009), and Perempuan Tanah Jahanam (2019). (Source: www.instagram.com/jokoanwar ) What happened in your youth that made you to want to be a filmmaker? I was born and raised in an environment not conducive for a kid to learn and grow. All my life lessons I got from watching films. I became very familiar with movie theaters from since I was 5 and went to watch movies by myself from since I was 7. When I came to know that films had somebody who made them, at around 10, that was when I decided I wanted to be a filmmaker. Today, people can learn to make films by watching audiovisual products on YouTube. What are the fundamental requirements to be a filmmaker in your view? A movie provides a rewarding viewing experience if it successfully makes the audience want to willingly enter the universe constructed by the filmmaker and follow each character’s journey. I am convinced only a filmmaker with a rich life perspective can do this. A filmmaker does not have to be wise nor know the answer to all life’s questions, but rather understands that people learn from peeking into somebody else’s life.
