Non seulement son parcours professionnel est inhabituel, mais sa démarche esthétique et ses préoccupations thématiques se distinguent grandement de celles de ses contemporains. Politiquement engagé, pratiquant un cinéma dramatique fondé sur la sobriété maîtrisée d’une mise en scène au service de récits volontairement ordinaires, Lee Chang-dong, en l’espace de cinq films seulement, a su imposer une vision de cinéaste unique et remarquable, que la sortie récente de ses deux derniers films en DVD (par Criterion et Kino, respectivement) permet d’illustrer.

Quick warning. Today's episode involves some discussion of sexual violence. It comes up early, and we wanted to give you a heads up. 00:00:08 Music Music Quiet music with melodic singing. 00:00:12 Ben Harrison Host The French title of today’s film is Rebelle, which is a true cognate: means the same in English as you would guess. But that’s not its English title, maybe because the word "rebel" has been so thoroughly monopolized in English by a single entertainment franchise. Rebels have graduated from bullseyeing womp rats in their T-16s and are now taking the fight to the Empire. But despite that near monopoly of association, it remains easy for the media to completely rob us of a nuanced understanding of a civil conflict by using the term "rebel" to describe one of the sides. It starts to evoke terms like "freedom fighters," which we've all been trained to mentally translate as "terrorists." In today’s film, our main character Komona feels so far from all of these definitions. She is a twelve-year-old girl, who is basically too young to be motivated by the forces we imagine inspire people to become rebels. In fact, it’s the rebels that completely wreck her life. Her coastal village is just sitting there minding its own business when they come collect the youngsters, force her to murder her family, and then spirit her away in a motorized tree trunk canoe to become a soldier for their cause.

  • Speech by Carolle Brabant, Quebec MBA
    QUEBEC MBA ASSOCIATION APRIL 25, 2012 The Canadian audiovisual industry: We mean business Speech delivered by Carolle Brabant, C.P.A., C.A., MBA Executive Director, Telefilm Canada I’d like to thank you for being here today as well as thank the Quebec MBA Association for making culture a part of these lunch-time talks. As an MBA graduate myself, I’m delighted to be able to use this forum to speak to you about a passionate and important industry for the economic and cultural future of Canada: the audiovisual industry. I decided to join this industry over 21 years ago and I’ve never regretted it. It has let me combine my passion for business with my passion for the arts. Every day, I get to work with inspirational, dynamic people who motivate me. 1/24 There’s been much talk of culture in the media these past few weeks as a result of the federal government’s recent budget cuts. But there’s also been much talk about the success garnered by Canadian productions. One need only think of the tremendous box office success enjoyed by Starbuck. It was announced this week that DreamWorks has acquired the remake rights and that Ken Scott would be the director. Then, of course, there’s Monsieur Lazhar, which made it all the way to the Oscars! The Canadian audiovisual industry is a vibrant, active industry that touches us every day through our television screens, at the movies, and increasingly on our computers and phones. It is an industry deserving of our attention, notably because of its contribution to the culture and economy of our country.

As the entire country watches, Guibord unwillingly finds himself in the awkward position of holding the decisive vote to determine whether Canada will go to war. Accompanied by his wife, his daughter and an idealistic intern from Haiti named Souverain (Sovereign) Pascal, Guibord travels across his district in order to consult his constituents. While groups of lobbyists get involved in a debate that spins out of control, the MP will have to face his own conscience. My Internship in Canada (Guibord s’en va-t-en guerre) is a biting political satire in which politicians, citizens and lobbyists go head-to-head tearing democracy to shreds.

  • Cultural Production in Transnational Culture: an Analysis of Cultural Creators in the Korean Wave
    International Journal of Communication 15(2021), 1810–1835 1932–8036/20210005 Cultural Production in Transnational Culture: An Analysis of Cultural Creators in the Korean Wave DAL YONG JIN1 Simon Fraser University, Canada By employing cultural production approaches in conjunction with the global cultural economy, this article attempts to determine the primary characteristics of the rapid growth of local cultural industries and the global penetration of Korean cultural content. It documents major creators and their products that are received in many countries to identify who they are and what the major cultural products are. It also investigates power relations between cultural creators and the surrounding sociocultural and political milieu, discussing how cultural creators develop local popular culture toward the global cultural markets. I found that cultural creators emphasize the importance of cultural identity to appeal to global audiences as well as local audiences instead of emphasizing solely hybridization. Keywords: cultural production, Hallyu, cultural creators, transnational culture Since the early 2010s, the Korean Wave (Hallyu in Korean) has become globally popular, and media scholars (Han, 2017; T. J. Yoon & Kang, 2017) have paid attention to the recent growth of Hallyu in many parts of the world. Although the influence of Western culture has continued in the Korean cultural market as well as elsewhere, local cultural industries have expanded the exportation of their popular culture to several regions in both the Global South and the Global North. Social media have especially played a major role in disseminating Korean culture (Huang, 2017; Jin & Yoon, 2016), and Korean popular culture is arguably reaching almost every corner of the world.

  • Secret Sunshine/ Milyang (2007) “Are You Looking? Do You See?” Major
    Secret Sunshine/ Milyang (2007) “Are you looking? Do you see?” Major Credits: Director: Chang-dong Lee Writer: Chang-dong Lee, from a novel by Chong-jung Yi Cinematography: Yong-kyo Cho Cast: Do-yeon Jeon (Shin-ae/ Mrs. Lee), Kang-ho Song (Jong Chan/ Mr. Kim) Production Context: Chang-dong Lee (b. 1954) was a successful novelist before turning to the cinema in 1992, when he became part of the Korean New Wave that includes Kim Ki-duk (Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter… and Spring), Bong Joon-ho (Memories of Murder), and Hong Sang-soo (Hill of Freedom). Lee was drawn to filmmaking following a political shift in Korea away from socialism around the time of the 1988 Seoul Olympics. For Lee, the cinema replaced literature as a means of conveying his social concerns, as becomes clear in his second feature, Peppermint Candy (1999). In contrast to the striking flashback narrative structure of that film and the socially marginalized protagonists of Oasis (2002), Secret Sunshine was designed with “normality” (Lee’s term) in mind. Both lead actors were well known to Korean audiences. Kang-ho Song’s role as Mr. Kim marks a departure from type, since he was best known for gangster and detective roles (most notably in Joon-ho Bong’s excellent Memories of Murder, 2003). Do-yeon Jeon, who won the acting prize at Cannes for her portrayal of Shin-ae, reportedly “hated” the director during their time together shooting the film. Cinematic Aspects: 1. Long Take: Lee deploys these unedited shots at key moments in the narrative (Interestingly, the director has testified that he had decided not to use long takes to preserve the film’s “normality”).
