A film byPaul Mazursky

Rabbi Nachman of Breslov (1772-1810), the great-grandson of the Baal
Shem Tov, founder of the Hassidic movement in Judaism, is buried in Uman, colu m bia uni v ersity 10-12 april 2008 Ukraine. Each year there is a major pilgrimage of Breslover Hassidim and others, who travel to Uman to celebrate Rosh Hashanah near the Rebbe’s gravesite. This custom dates back to the very beginning of the Breslov movement, when Rabbi Nachman’s followers would gather with him on Rosh Hashanah each year. During the Communist years, it was very difficult for Jews to travel to Uman but, with the fall of the USSR in 1989, it became possible to make the pilgrimage again. Filmmaker Paul Mazursky travelled with them to record an event at which 25,000 Hassidim sing, dance, pray and celebrate life.

The film investigates the complexities of migration and sense of national belonging, using the parallel stories of the historical Italian emigration to Brazil and the current Brazilian ‘return’ migration to Italy. Though they generally hold an Italian passport and feel a strong attachment to and national pride for Italy, these “return immigrants” face considerable challenges in a country still plagued by the difficulty of integrating “outsiders”. Why is this the case? Why aren’t they recognized as Italians? If it is not nationality, what is it exactly that creates a sense of belonging within a society? Which are the criteria for belonging? Is it about ‘blood’ or about the project of living together in one territory? By comparing the great Italian emigration of the 1800’s and the immigration which Europe is experiencing today through the lives of these returning migrants, the film aims at providing a certain number of paths to answer these questions.

PANEL FILM 3 Around Mostar, the Bridge and Bruce Lee
Italy, 2007
Directed by Sanja Puljar (U of Rijeka, Croatia) and Vanni D’Alessio (U of Naples Federico II, Italy)
Sanja Puljar’s and Vanni D’alessio’s documentary investigates post-war Mostar and its negotiations with the past and the future among three national communities: Muslim (Bosniak), Croatian, and Serbian. Each of
them fought with each other in the war, and all of them are forced to colu m bia uni v ersity 10-12 april 2008 live together after the war (although the Serbian community has been reduced to a few people). The film talks about a divided town in a new form of multinational unstable state, in which there are mixed local, supra- local and international trends towards integration, centralization and separation. The symbol of the Ottoman imperial heritage (the Old Bridge), which underwent a process of Muslim/Bosniak nationalization, is compared to the Bruce Lee monument, which was placed as a global pop icon against the national discourses, and his memory as a shared space opposed to the intensive nationalization of the public monuments and memory.
Ana Devic < U of Glasgow, UK, [email protected] > will lead the discussion after the screening. l l l

Greece, 2007 (75 minutes)
Directed by Dimitri Kitsikoudis
Contact: Dimitri Kitsikoudis < [email protected] >
hree anthropologists, a historian, an islamist and a lot of Pomaks guide
us to the mountain range of Rhodope in the Balkans so that we may get colu m bia uni v ersity 10-12 april 2008 familiar with the population of the Pomaks, their history, their culture, their problems, their fears and their hopes. The Pomaks live in the mountains of Rhodope, in Greece and Bulgaria, along the borders. Their language is south- slavic and their religion is Muslim. Their origin has not been scientifically documentated. They determine themselves as Greeks, Bulgarians, Turks and European. Multiple or performative identity formation has been the only way to escape conflict with neighbouring ethnic groups and govermental as well as bilateral agreements between Greece and Turkey have led to their social and economic marginalization. There is a typical proverb: “Beware of the Turk’s shot, the Bulgarian’s beating the Greek’s pencil”, because shooting and beating are forgotten, but the pencil does not forget.
Domna Michail (U of Western Macedonia, Greece, < [email protected] >) will lead the discussion after the film, with the director Dimitri Kitsikoudis.
Ifigenia Vamvakidou (U of Western Macedonia, Greece < [email protected] >) will present the paper “Critical Analysis of a Documentary for the Purpose of Teaching History” based on the film.

Germany, 2005 (57 minutes)
Directed by Monica Heintz and Alin Rus Max Planck Institute for Social Anthropology
In Romanian/Moldovan with English subtitles
Contact: colu m bia uni v ersity 10-12 april 2008 Monica Heintz < [email protected] >
Monica Heinz’s documentary film illustrates the intellectual and political debates, and the everyday confusions linked to the Moldovan/Romanian identity in the Republic of Moldova. The film exposes the elements that determine the actual debate on national identity in Moldova (memories, soviet legacies, the economic situation, migration, the situation of mass media) and reveals new issues and concerns concerning new generations and the future of the Moldovan state. Romanian-speaking Moldovans who were publicly denying a Romanian identity through political actions are shown to have, in private discussions, an unambiguous conscience of a Romanian identity.

PANEL FILM 6 Slobodan Milosevic - Præsident Under Anklage/Milosevic On Trial
Denmark, 2007 (69 minutes)
A film by Michael Christoffersen
In English and Serbian with English subtitles
Nicknamed the Butcher of the Balkans, Slobodan Milosevic died of a heart
attack on 11 March 2006. With exclusive access the director follows the colu m bia uni v ersity 10-12 april 2008 key players in the specially-created UN tribunal. The key players are the principal trial attorney, the English barrister Geoffrey Nice, on one side, and on the other Milosevic’ advisers. The crew has been behind-the-scenes from the beginning of the trial, in 2002. By following the players as the trial unfolds and recording history as it happens, the film gives a unique insight to the strategies and obstacles of the people involved, marking their conflicts and victories. The trial, of four years, against Slobodan Milosevic was the longest war crimes trial before an international court, and the most important since Nuremberg.
James Gow (King’s College (London, UK) < [email protected] > will lead the discussion after the screening.

US, 2007 (88 minutes)
Directed by Bill Guttentag
Contact: Erin Owens, Thinkfilm, < [email protected] >
A powerful, emotional and relevant reminder of the heartbreaking toll war colu m bia uni v ersity 10-12 april 2008 takes on the innocent; Nanking tells the story of the Japanese invasion of Nanking, China, in the early days of World War II. After days of bombardment, the city fell to Japanese forces, after which massive atrocities and rape were committed by the occupying forces. The story is told through interviews with Chinese survivors, archival footage and photos of the events, and testimonies of former Japanese soldiers. At the heart of Nanking is a filmed stage reading of the Westerners’ letters and diaries, featuring Woody Harrelson, Mariel Hemingway and Jurgen Prochnow. Through its interweave of archival images, testimonies of survivors, and readings of firsthand accounts, the film puts the viewer on the streets of Nanking and brings the forgotten past to life.

Areta Loyd’s documentary explores the impact of Ukraine’s 2004 Orange colu m bia uni v ersity 10-12 april 2008 revolution on democratic opposition groups in Belarus. This important event raised hope for activists in the neighboring country who still battle President Lukashenko’s authoritarian rule. The documentary analyses the situation of the generally demoralized opposition and civil society prior to the 2006 presidential elections and the cat and mouse game between opposition activists and the police.

Music Partisans
Poland, 2007 (52 minutes)
Directed by Mirosław Dembinski
English subtitles
Contact: Catherine Pergol Studio Filmowe Everest < [email protected] >
After A Lesson of Belarusian, shown at ASN 2007, Polish director Miroslav Dembinsky returns with Music Partisans to a familiar theme, President Aleksandr Lukashenko’s iron fisted reign in Belarus, this time seen from the point of view of a number of Rock Bands. Dembinski interlaces their protest songs with poignant archive images of, for example, the militia that hard- handedly stopped protest marches. The film ends with the elections of 2006 that, as was expected, ended in a victory for Lukashenko. 118 l l l
