In February, we opened our newest regional office in the Middle East. Europe continued to develop a strong network of national committees throughout the region. In Asia, we lost the Reproductive Health Bill we had been fighting for the past 14 years, but the Philippine Supreme Court immediately granted a stay of implementation thanks to a challenge on the bill’s legality. We continue to watch that closely as we work with our friends and allies in the Philippines. North America increased their work with high school and college chapters and saw a rise in membership, conference participation, and success in their activities and plans.

Told in an absorbing fashion, the vast historical epic follows the life of Mohammed Ali Jinnah, the hugely important but often-misrepresented world leader.

In an unusual twist, Jinnah awakens in a computer room, where a decision on his eternal soul will be made.

This visibility is based on, and has produced, a transnational circuit of representations of Pakistan. Pakistan is either condemned as an exceptional failure of the nation-state, or redeemed through exceptional nationalist figures of courage and resistance. Such representations have material consequences for Pakistanis, including elisions between anti-state struggles due to injustice and inequality, sectarian violence, and transnational war machines based in Pakistan. This dissertation explores the transnational politics of class, gender, and sexuality of these representations. The tropes deployed by these narrations attempt to manage an epistemological, emotional, and material excess of lives that cannot be contained by the categorical structure of the Pakistani nation-state. ii I analyze the 2012 film “The Reluctant Fundamentalist,” by Mira Nair, based on Mohsin Hamid’s 2007 novel; the 1998 film, “Jinnah,” by Jamil Dehlavi; and the 2008 novel, A Case of Exploding Mangoes by Mohammed Hanif.

It argues that the biopic is a necessary category because producers, reviewers and cinemagoers have significant investments in biographical subjects, and because biopics construct a ‘public history’ for a broad audience.

  • The Man from Mo' Wax + Q&A with James Lavelle UK-Jap
    IN PERSON Talent Q&As and rare appearances Sonic Cinema presents: The Man From Mo’ Wax + Q&A with James Lavelle UK-Japan-USA 2016. Dir Matthew Jones. 109min. Digital. Cert tbc Almost 10 years in the making, The Man From Mo’ Wax tells the remarkable story of James Lavelle, one of the most enigmatic figures in contemporary British culture. Drawing upon meticulous research and exclusive access to personal home footage, debut director Matthew Jones assembles archive footage, stills and original interviews to chart Lavelle’s phenomenal rise. It includes him establishing Mo’ Wax as one of the UK’s most significant independent record labels and redefining what it means to be a DJ. In this film portrait that reflects the boom and bust of the modern music industry and a life that takes in some decidedly flawed decision- making (both personal and professional), Lavelle emerges as an innovative artist who thinks big and consistently overcomes adversity. James Lavelle will be DJing in the BFI Bar & Kitchen after the screening Tickets £16.50, concs £13.20 (Members pay £2 less) THU 30 AUG 20:30 NFT1 PREVIEWS Catch the latest film and TV alongside Q&As and special events Preview: The Eyes of Orson Welles + Q&A with director Mark Cousins UK 2018.

He painted and drew throughout his life, sketching set designs, storyboards, ideas and places and people that inspired him. Award-winning director Mark Cousins, a life-long Welles admirer, is granted unprecedented access to Welles’ sketches – most of which have never been seen outside of his family – and with it builds a picture of the unique way Welles saw the world.

  • A Reading of Gandhi, Lage Raho Munnabhai and Papilio Buddha
    International Journal on Studies in English Language and Literature (IJSELL) Volume 3, Issue 2, February 2015, PP 138-146 ISSN 2347-3126 (Print) & ISSN 2347-3134 (Online) www.arcjournals.org Gandhian Plurality in the Visual Narration: A Reading of Gandhi, Lage Raho Munnabhai and Papilio Buddha Dr.Angkayarkan Vinayaka Selvi Mr.V.R. Anil Kumar Assistant Professor of English Research Scholar (Full- Time) Bharathidasan University Bharathidasan University Tiruchirappalli, TamilNadu Tiruchirappalli, TamilNadu Abstract: This paper proposes to examine the representation of Gandhi in the visual narrations, as an attempt to comprehend the reconstruction of Gandhi in the contemporary popular aesthetics and also to apprehend the plurality of Gandhi. Even decades after Gandhi’s death, the ideas of Gandhi and Gandhism are becoming the subject for the popular visual narratives. The contemporary popular aesthetic like film has been polemical in nature in its approach to Gandhi. Treating Gandhi by means of the present-day cultural parameters, namely films and visual representations provide new space for exploring new possibilities to reconstruct and reinterpret Gandhi and Gandhian thought. The contemporary popular medium of art endeavored to admonish the established historical format of Gandhi on the one side, but some other attempted to celebrate and romanticize Gandhian philosophy in a didactic way. The representation of Gandhi in films is a strategy for marketing Gandhian philosophy, and a new visual experiment in proliferating the different aspects of Gandhi which is not freely expressed anywhere in the formal format. Plurality in representing Gandhian identity is the present ways of explicating Gandhi for further comprehending the methods and functions of Gandhian ideology.
