The Forthcoming 'Tenet' and the Dannebrog: Estonia Is Making ISSN: 2560-1601 Vol. 19, No. 3 (EE) June 2019 Estonia social briefing: The forthcoming ‘Tenet’ and the Dannebrog: Estonia is making plenty of international headlines E-MAP Foundation MTÜ 1052 Budapest Petőfi Sándor utca 11. +36 1 5858 690 Kiadó: Kína-KKE Intézet Nonprofit Kft. [email protected] Szerkesztésért felelős személy: Chen Xin Kiadásért felelős személy: Huang Ping china-cee.eu 2017/01 The forthcoming ‘Tenet’ and the Dannebrog: Estonia is making plenty of international headlines From all possible sides, this particular briefing will not be precisely on the Estonian society-related politico-economic concerns. However, the society’s direct involvement into the processes, which the briefing will highlight, is undeniable. Both Hollywood and history, fictional characters and real heroes, the dazzling creativity of the non-existence and the calm philosophy of the past – all of these were mixed and matched in Estonia, during the long- awaited June 2019. Speculatively speaking, when the name of Christopher Nolan1 would be mentioned in Estonia before spring this year, the general public would not be exhibiting plenty of knowledge on what this British movie director had done by then and, more importantly for the context, what he had in mind regarding some of his immediate future plans. It would be irrespectively of the famous director’s ten major products, which were associated with 34 Oscar nominations, including 10 wins. In a truly dramatic way, the situation has substantially changed from May 2019. It was reported that “Hollywood director Christopher Nolan […] is to commence filming on a movie in Tallinn [in June], bringing a diverse range of globally famous stars to the Estonian capital, and no doubt a huge boost to tourism and business with it”2. From then on, Estonia and, more specifically, Tallinn residents became global experts on the Nolan-linked filmography. Putting the irony aside, however, it was indeed the pure reflection of reality that a significant segment of the Nolan’s newest movie – ‘Tenet’, a Warner Bros.-produced future blockbuster – is to be filmed in Tallinn, and it is argued to become “the first movie on this scale to be shot in the Baltic States”3. An-easy-to-be-ignored routine for Paris, Los Angeles, Tokyo and Shanghai, this development is of immense significance for Estonia, a 1.3 million nation. Therefore, it was not a huge surprise when the country’s President Kersti Kaljulaid decided to comment on the news: 1 Melissa Albert, ‘Christopher Nolan’ in Encyclopaedia Britannica. Available from [https://www.britannica.com/biography/Christopher-Nolan-British-director]. 2 ‘Christopher Nolan spy thriller to be filmed in Tallinn’ in ERR. 24 May 2019. [https://news.err.ee/945558/christopher-nolan-spy-thriller-to-be-filmed-in-tallinn]. 3 ‘Christopher Nolan spy thriller to be filmed in Tallinn’. 1 That Christopher Nolan’s project is materialising in Tallinn is a recognition of the great work and development of the Estonian creative industry sector in recent years. […] On the one hand, film production on this scale arriving here in Estonia definitely gives us an impetus, and a lot of new experience to our local actors, while on the other, it offers an opportunity to introduce Estonia, and hopefully paves the way for […] larger film projects to come here, as well.4 While the movie’s detailed plot is an almost mysterious secret, it became publically known – during the press-conference of the Estonian Minister of Culture Tõnis Lukas – that “the production involves at least 13 locations in Estonia, predominantly in Tallinn”5. Intriguingly, some of the chosen Estonian localities (for example, the highly important Tallinn’s thoroughfare Laagna Road) are directly related to Estonia in the plot, but the other ones are to be linked to a range of different geographic areas elsewhere (for example, Ukraine)6. On 11 June, Christopher Nolan, together with the crew and some of the prospective movie’s leading actors (John David Washington and others), arrived to Tallinn7 to make ‘Tenet’ as well as history. Logistically, considering the fact that Tallinn is not a huge city, the process of filming (even if what is getting filmed is a blockbuster) should not create a range of unsolvable issues for the city government. It was not the case for Tallinn, where the Mayor of the city, Mihhail Kõlvart, was openly dissatisfied with how negotiations with the movie-bound organisers went on the issues of where exactly and for how long the process would be taking place. It was even reported that Kõlvart was no longer wishing to “negotiate with filmmakers and [was] set to send an ultimatum to the […] production crew […]: the team can either accept the city’s proposal concerning road and street closures or not shoot the picture at all”8. It is practically impossible to speculate on the actual reasons for the Mayor’s publically exposed displeasure, but the media feedback on the Kõlvart’s message was, in general terms, summarised and formulated by the opinion of Andrew Whyte, Managing Editor of ERR News: 4 Kersti Kaljulaid in ‘Christopher Nolan spy thriller to be filmed in Tallinn’. 5 Anna Põld, ‘The plot of Nolan’s movie features Estonia’ in Postimees. 7 June 2019. Available from [https://news.postimees.ee/6702371/the-plot-of-nolan-s-movie-features-estonia]. 6 Põld. 7 ‘Gallery: Christopher Nolan, John David Washington arrive in Tallinn’ in ERR. 11 June 2019. Available from [https://news.err.ee/951234/gallery-christopher-nolan-john-david-washington-arrive-in-tallinn]. 8 Sander Punamäe, ‘Kõlvart hits production team with ultimatum’ in Postimees. 14 June 2019. Available from [https://news.postimees.ee/6707580/kolvart-hits-production-team-with-ultimatum]. 2 Needless to say, we need to ditch Kõlvart if portrayed as the defender of the common man and woman in Tallinn, against the corrupting influence of the exploitative outsider. It does not tell the whole story. There is another way of looking at the impasse (except it is not really that either – the movie will go ahead). Far from being smart, Kõlvart and his minions are acting incredibly stupidly in trying to obstruct one of the best things to happen to Tallinn in a long time, and losing Nolan’s custom – which they will not do of course – would be a tremendous own goal.9 As for the public, for few days, they went in thousands – having travelled to Tallinn from different Estonian localities and, in some cases, from Finland, Latvia and thereabouts – to be filmed in the movie’s mass scenes10. Each of the local participant had to sign an agreement of confidentiality, therefore there are only rumours about the actual happenings during the process of filming. However, the Estonian people do not mind – a real Hollywood still ‘lives’ in Tallinn, Robert Pattinson (would anybody ever believe) has already arrived to join the crew11, and, using a less sarcastic tone, a more experienced societal cluster has a perspective to see Sir Michael Caine walking in the medieval Old Town of the Estonian capital city. A total ‘nirvana’ for a movie buff society in any country! For the next year, it is very easy to make a prediction about the movie that will be the most watched by the people of the Republic of Estonia – ‘Tenet’ is planned to be released on 17 July 202012. In the thrilled midst of the fictional social platforms created by Hollywood, there was a distinct moment when History (on such an occasion, this word needs to written with the capital letter ‘H’), retook the imagery stage for few instants. On 15 June 2019, Margrethe II, the Queen of Denmark arrived to Tallinn to celebrate a super-special day – the Danish National Flag’s 800th Anniversary. The Dannebrog – by this name the Flag is known in Denmark and globally – is a significant symbol, because there is a reason to claim that it is the world’s oldest national banner. Why Estonia then? 9 Andrew Whyte, ‘Opinion: Laagna Road procession of deadlocks itself worthy of a Nolan movie’ in ERR. 17 June 2019.

Available from [https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/heat-vision/tenet-what-is-christopher-nolans-next-movie- 1213038]. 3 There is a centuries-old legend that, on 15 June 1219, a particular red flag with a white cross on it “fell from the heavens”13 during a Livonian Crusade encounter, the Battle of Lyndanisse, when the Kingdom of Denmark together with some Germanic allies were fighting against Estonian tribes. The exact battlefield-associated spot is known in history as the Danish King’s Garden, and it is now situated on a slope of Toompea, a limestone hill in the Old Town of Tallinn where both the country’s Parliament and the Government’s House are also located. On its official web-portal, the Estonian Ministry of Foreign Affairs noted that “King Valdemar II of Denmark began his great crusade to Estonia exactly 800 years ago, in 1219 […] [,] [where] the Danes began building a stronghold [;] [t]oday, the place is known as Tallinn – from the words ‘Taani linn’ or ‘Danish town’”14. Considering the significance of the occasion, the big anniversary-related event generated plenty of interest from the public – the visitors “had the chance to enjoy choir music and Danish jazz as well as Estonian folk music, visit thematic tents to learn about Estonian-Danish relations, participate in games, drawings, and thematic activities as well as taste Estonian and Danish food”15.

  • THE “TENET” THEORY Written by Esmarelda Villalobos
    THE “TENET” THEORY Written by Esmarelda VillaLobos WARNING: MAJOR SPOILERS AHEAD. “Tenet” begins with an attack on the arts. It is the first event in the film, right out of the gate, that sets the tone for the rest of the movie. In fact, in this film there are multiple attacks on art, but in the first few minutes of this topsy-turvy ride, we as the audience witness some kind of terrorist attack that occurs during the preparations for an orchestral performance somewhere in Russia, which, given the number of public shootings and horrific terrorist attacks that have plagued the world throughout the last decade, is not that far of a stretch from the truth. The first line of the film is “Time to wake up the Americans” to which we are now introduced to John David Washington’s character as The Protagonist. Through a series of what seems to be party-switching and criss-crossery (if that’s even a word), John David Washington is eventually caught. While under capture and interrogation, The Protagonist decides to sacrifice his own life for the good of the cause and swallow a cyanide pill given to him by the CIA. Cut to black. When we as the audience come back, John David Washington is in a hospital bed on a very large ship, somewhere beyond the sea. Now, on first viewing if you are to watch this film, you believe everything that is said – the cyanide pill is a fake, his taking it was a test to see if he would sacrifice himself in order to avoid torture and potentially give up secrets – which he did.

  • Tori Rosenthal Dr. Olsen T/RS 228 – Parables in Pop Culture May 22
    1 Tori Rosenthal Dr. Olsen T/RS 228 – Parables in Pop Culture May 22, 2020 BlacKkKlansman: Language is Power As the first African American director to become a household name in Hollywood, critically acclaimed U.S. filmmaker Spike Lee has never been one to shy away from bold character personas, unique camera angles, and groundbreaking content, and his iconic film BlacKkKlansman (2018) is no exception. A passionate supporter of black art and emancipation, Lee’s films often comment on the state of ‘white America’ past and present, telling stories of black Americans that were previously little heard in Hollywood films and cultivating a public persona that is known well beyond the film world for his outspoken attitudes surrounding racial politics. With a star-studded cast and a comedic approach to such complex material, the underlying message in BlacKkKlansman conveys to the audience the truth behind Ron Stallworth’s extraordinary story and tackles controversial topics such as racism, white supremacy, the politics of policework and radical activism. Set in the 1970s in Colorado Springs and based off the 2014 memoir Black Klansmen by Ron Stallworth, BlacKkKlansman follows the journey of the first African-American detective (John David Washington) in the city's police department as he sets out to infiltrate and expose the local chapter of the Ku Klux Klan. He poses as a white racist on the phone using his real name while his secretively Jewish partner Flip Zimmerman (Adam Driver) poses for him in real life in order to become part of the organization. Stallworth’s two-man persona and undercover 2 police work allow the pair to successfully infiltrate the Ku Klux Klan, going so far as rising up in the chapter by rubbing elbows with Grand Wizard David Duke (Topher Grace) and discovering information on several underground military connections within the KKK.

  • John David Washington: the Photo Shoot and Interview for L'uomo
    Leggi l'articolo su beautynews John David Washington: the photo shoot and interview for L'Uomo Raised in a family of actors, preachers, musicians and intellectuals, John David Washington has a distinctive cadence that resonates with a strong sense of belonging, like a coiled spring of physical and mental energy. Maybe it’s because he graduated from Morehouse College, the private university of the African-American intelligentsia where Reverend Martin Luther King studied after the war. Or perhaps it was the role Spike Lee gave him in BlacKkKlansman (2018), the true story of a police officer who infiltrated the Ku Klux Klan. He prepared for that part by channelling his cultural roots. “For months I only listened to ’70s music. I went to bed with Soul Train in my ears and watched Super Fly over and over. And I often phoned my uncles, Vietnam veterans, to understand what it meant to be men, and black, at that time in American history.” Having grown up in the Toluca Lake neighbourhood of Los Angeles with his father Denzel Washington (who was Spike Lee’s Malcolm X) and his mother Pauletta Pearson (an actress and pianist), John David is now a modest 36-year-old gentleman. “My mother taught me to love,” he says on the phone from LA, where he spent lockdown with his parents and three younger siblings. “My father taught me to hunt,” but not in the sense of killing animals, he explains. “Instead, it’s about being relentlessly scientific about your approach to life and work. It’s about developing a system and putting in the hours, because nobody’s going to hand you anything – you have to get it yourself.

  • CELEBRATING FORTY YEARS of FILMS WORTH TALKING ABOUT How Do We Fit It All In?!
    7 SEP 18 4 OCT 18 1 | 7 SEP 18 - 4 OCT 18 88 LOTHIAN ROAD | FILMHOUSECINEMA.COM CELEBRATING FORTY YEARS OF FILMS WORTH TALKING ABOUT How do we fit it all in?! Here at Filmhouse, across the year, we play host to a dizzying array of film festivals (at last count there were in excess of thirty of them!) – some are only a few shows, some are as long as two weeks, all are an essential part of the overall cinematic offering that is Filmhouse. The fact is, we couldn’t run these festivals ourselves – we just don’t have the resource to watch and source all the films these festivals bring us – and so are entirely reliant on the skill and enthusiasm of the programmers and organisers of them. But please don’t imagine we’ve given over curatorial control lightly, for we take the quality of what hits our screen very seriously indeed. Why, if they don’t continually hit the standards we set ourselves… well… they’re out! I mention these ‘partner’ festivals now because September traditionally sees the beginning of a period in which many of them take place, kicking off with one of my favourites (don’t tell any of the others!), Take One Action, the festival of active citizenship (my words, not theirs), and swiftly followed (in October) by the Edinburgh Spanish Film Festival, Scotland Loves Anime, Edinburgh Short Film Festival, Africa in Motion and (in November) French Film Festival UK… to name but a few. It’s a busy time for sure but an exciting one, what with variety being the spice of life and everything.
