SHORT SYNOPSIS IN THE SAME BREATH, directed by Nanfu Wang (“One Child Nation”), recounts the origin and spread of the novel coronavirus from the earliest days of the outbreak in Wuhan to its rampage across the United States. In a deeply personal approach, Wang, who was born in China and now lives in the United States, explores the parallel campaigns of misinformation waged by leadership and the devastating impact on citizens of both countries. Emotional first-hand accounts and startling, on-the-ground footage weave a revelatory picture of cover-ups and misinformation while also highlighting the strength and resilience of the healthcare workers, activists and family members who risked everything to communicate the truth. DIRECTOR’S STATEMENT I spent a lot of my childhood in hospitals taking care of my father, who had rheumatic heart disease.

Available at: https://scholarworks.gvsu.edu/cine/vol10/iss1/3 This Article is brought to you for free and open access by ScholarWorks@GVSU. It has been accepted for inclusion in Cinesthesia by an authorized editor of ScholarWorks@GVSU. For more information, please contact [email protected]. Macciomei: Co-optation of the American Dream Independent cinema has been an aspect of the American film industry since the inception of the art form itself. The aspects and perceptions of independent film have altered drastically over the years, but in general it can be used to describe American films produced and distributed outside of the Hollywood major studio system. But as American film history has revealed time and time again, independent studios always struggle to maintain their freedom from the Hollywood industrial complex. American independent cinema has been heavily integrated with major Hollywood studios who have attempted to tap into the niche markets present in filmgoers searching for theatrical experiences outside of the mainstream. From this, we can say that the American independent film industry has a long history of co-optation, acquisition, and the stifling of competition from the major film studios present in Hollywood, all of whom pose a threat to the autonomy that is sought after in these markets by filmmakers and film audiences.

  • MIA MARKET 7Th Edition
    Press release MIA|MERCATO INTERNAZIONALE AUDIOVISIVO THE INDUSTRY’S MOST IMPORTANT EVENT IN ITALY 7th EDITION ROME, OCTOBER 13 – 17, 2021 INTERNATIONAL TOP PLAYERS AND 2 NEW DIVISIONS DEDICATED TO THE BEST OF SCRIPTED AND UNSCRIPTED PRODUCTION In six editions, since 2015, the MIA | INTERNATIONAL AUDIOVISUAL MARKET, whose direction is entrusted to Lucia Milazzotto, has confirmed itself, year after year, as a point of reference for the domestic and international industry, an increasingly valuable business event that anticipates the needs of the sector in a rapidly changing context. With 8,000 on-site and online presences, in the midst of the pandemic, last year MIA was one of the first examples of a hybrid market, able to offer a safe environment where global relationships with the top players of the audiovisual industry were strengthened, and contents of the highest quality were discovered in the most extraordinary places of the Italian cultural heritage. The seventh edition this year takes place from October 13 to 17 in Rome in the well-known spaces of the Barberini District, under the banner of a busy program of panels, content showcases and screenings for nearly 200 sessions over four days. Building on the experience of 2020, the on-site activity will once again be enhanced and integrated by the online activity thanks to MIA DIGITAL, a platform that allows exclusive access to thousands of users, the digital admission to all activities, and the gateway to a vast catalog of original multimedia content. With the aim of continuing to anticipate trends and business models in the sector and to efficiently support the ecosystem from an international perspective, MIA has renewed the offer of its content, networking and market tools, through the strengthening of three divisions: Scripted, curated by Gaia Tridente, Unscripted, curated by Marco Spagnoli and Strategic Development entrusted to Francesca Palleschi.
