  • Article by Maria Joseph ONE NIGHT the MOON Directed by Rachel
    Area of Study 2 Article on One Night The Moon by Maria Joseph Context: The Imaginative Landscape Article by Maria Joseph ONE NIGHT THE MOON Directed by Rachel Perkins One Night the Moon is directed by Rachel Perkins and was released in 2001. Perkins is an Indigenous Australian, an Arrernte woman from the Central Desert region near Alice Springs. She grew up in Canberra, the daughter of renowned Aboriginal activist Charles Perkins, who died whilst the film was in production. One Night the Moon is dedicated to his memory. Like her father, Perkins is concerned with the social and political rights of Aboriginals in contemporary Australia. Her films Radiance (1998) and Bran Nue Dae (2010) centre on Aboriginal issues, and her television series The First Australians (2008) gives an Aboriginal viewpoint of Australian history. Paul Kelly is a principal actor and musician in One Night the Moon, playing the father, Jim. As a musician he is known for his insightful lyrics that comment on modern Australian life. At the time of making One Night the Moon, Kelly was married to Kaarin Fairfax, who plays Rose. Their actual daughter, Memphis, plays Emily. The Imaginative Landscape in One Night the Moon At one level ‘The Imaginative Landscape’ can be simply interpreted as having to do with representations of the land. Writers and directors create the settings of their narratives in order to convey meaning. We all know that a thunderstorm or wild wind suggests something dramatic or tragic is likely to happen in the story. A narrative with a negative outcome or a critical message may be set in a landscape that conveys pessimism, such as a grungy cityscape.

  • Appeared in - the Australian Adelaide Film Festival Shedding Light and Casting Shadows
    8 March 2002 Cinematic Focus Richly Rewarded Appeared in - The Australian Adelaide Film Festival Shedding Light and Casting Shadows. Australian films commissioned by Adelaide Festival and SBS Independent. Her Majesty’s Theatre, Adelaide. Until 7 March. Regional South Australian tour until 14 March. The Adelaide Festival films have always been one of Peter Sellars’ pet ideas, and they have turned out to be among his best. With various fund- ing, including $1.5m from the Festival, Shedding Light Director and SBS Independent executive, Bridget Ikin produced four features which pre- miered this week. Three of the four have Indigenous perspectives focusing on Truth and Reconciliation - as does the fifth in the series, Beneath Clouds, not a commission, but a debut feature by Ivan Sen, also shown for the first time. Before the season began there was concern that the films would sit uneas- ily with the rest of the program, adrift from the live performance menu. The reverse has been the case. Because the Indigenous themes of the Festi- val have been so ubiquitous, events interact in chain reactions. Whether visiting Ian Abdulla’s evocative paintings at Flinders University’s Grote Street Gallery, seeing The Tracker a hundred metres further down at Her Majesty’s Theatre, or walking back to the square at night in time to see women from the Anangu Pitjantjatjara lands dancing beside the statue of Queen Victoria, the experiences reverberate. But they also need grounding, something which the strong discourses in the films provide. Rolf de Heer said of The Tracker that he made the film with the context of a Festival premiere in mind.

  • What Killed Australian Cinema & Why Is the Bloody Corpse Still Moving?
    What Killed Australian Cinema & Why is the Bloody Corpse Still Moving? A Thesis Submitted By Jacob Zvi for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the Faculty of Health, Arts & Design, Swinburne University of Technology, Melbourne © Jacob Zvi 2019 Swinburne University of Technology All rights reserved. This thesis may not be reproduced in whole or in part, by photocopy or other means, without the permission of the author. II Abstract In 2004, annual Australian viewership of Australian cinema, regularly averaging below 5%, reached an all-time low of 1.3%. Considering Australia ranks among the top nations in both screens and cinema attendance per capita, and that Australians’ biggest cultural consumption is screen products and multi-media equipment, suggests that Australians love cinema, but refrain from watching their own. Why? During its golden period, 1970-1988, Australian cinema was operating under combined private and government investment, and responsible for critical and commercial successes. However, over the past thirty years, 1988-2018, due to the detrimental role of government film agencies played in binding Australian cinema to government funding, Australian films are perceived as under-developed, low budget, and depressing. Out of hundreds of films produced, and investment of billions of dollars, only a dozen managed to recoup their budget. The thesis demonstrates how ‘Australian national cinema’ discourse helped funding bodies consolidate their power. Australian filmmaking is defined by three ongoing and unresolved frictions: one external and two internal. Friction I debates Australian cinema vs. Australian audience, rejecting Australian cinema’s output, resulting in Frictions II and III, which respectively debate two industry questions: what content is produced? arthouse vs.

  • S. Macpherson
    From Spectator to Citizen: Urban Walking in Canadian Literature, Performance Art and Culture Sandra MacPherson Thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Doctorate in Philosophy degree in English Department of English Faculty of Arts University of Ottawa © Sandra MacPherson, Ottawa, Canada, 2018 ii Abstract This dissertation examines urban walking in Canada as it deviates from a largely male peripatetic tradition associated with the flâneur. This new incarnation of the walker— differentiated by gender, race, class, and/or sexual orientation—reshapes the urban imaginary and shifts the act of walking from what is generally theorized as an individualistic or simply transgressive act to a relational and transformative practice. While the walkers in this study are diverse, the majority of them are women: writers Dionne Brand, Daphne Marlatt, Régine Robin, Gail Scott, and Lisa Robertson and performance artists Kinga Araya, Stephanie Marshall, and Camille Turner all challenge the dualism inscribed by the dominant (masculine) gaze under the project of modernity that abstracts and objectifies the other. Yet, although sexual difference is often the first step toward rethinking identities and relationships to others and the city, it is not the last. I argue that poet Bud Osborn, the play The Postman, the projects Ogimaa Mikana, [murmur] and Walking With Our Sisters, and community initiatives such as Jane’s Walk, also invite all readers and pedestrians to question the equality, official history and inhabitability of Canadian cities. As these peripatetic works emphasize, how, where and why we choose to walk is a significant commentary on the nature of public space and democracy in contemporary urban Canada.
