35Th Portland International Film Festival 3 THE NORT HWEST FILM CENTER / PORTLAND ART M USE UM PRESENTS 3 5TH PORTLaNd INTERNaTIONaL FILM FESTIvaL SPONSOREd BY: THE OREGONIaN / R E GaL CINEMaS F E BRU aRY 9–25, 2012 WELCOME Welcome to the Northwest Film Center’s 35th annual showcase of new world cinema. Like our annual Northwest Filmmakers’ Festival, which celebrates the creativity and vision of artists in our community, the Portland International Film Festival (PIFF) seeks to explore the diversity of not only the art of film, but also the world around us. This year’s PIFF presents 93 feature and 46 short films from over three dozen countries, in an inspiring, eclectic snapshot of recent international cinema that we hope will stimulate your filmgoing well beyond the Festival itself. As part of the Film Center’s 40th Anniversary Season, we continue to look forward to the new more than celebrating the past, as we consider the role that film and the Film Center play in animating the regional cultural community. In that spirit, PIFF 35 is expanding its footprint, with theaters spread throughout the city and, we hope, with new audiences to match. In addition to our home base at the Whitsell Auditorium in the Portland Art Museum, PIFF screenings will come alive at Cinema 21, Cinemagic, Regal Lloyd Center Mall, Pioneer Place Cinemas, Newmark Theatre of the Portland Center for the Performing Arts, World Trade Center, and Lake Twin Cinema in Lake Oswego. This year, we welcome a host of new sponsors, too. The Bank of Lake Oswego and City of Lake Oswego are enthusiastic partners in engaging new audiences there. The Safeway Foundation and the James F. and Marion L. Miller Foundation’s support are helping develop our Global Classroom screenings for high school students and teachers, as well as broader family programming. Among many new sponsors are SP Newsprint, Fox Networks, Lamar Advertising, Portland General Electric, and Hong Kong Economic & Trade Office, San Francisco. They join the dozens of amazing sponsors who have supported the Festival for many years and whom we hope you will let know that their investment in the Festival is recognized and appreciated. As always, we invite you to vote in the Alaska Airlines Audience Award balloting and give us feedback on your Festival experience. Enjoy!

SYNOPSIS THE BRIDE - Based on “Blood Wedding” from F. García Lorca - Dirty hands tear the earth. A woman’s mouth shivers out of control. She breathes heavily, as if she were about to choke... We hear her cry, swallow, groan... Her eyes are flooded with tears. Her hands full with dry soil. There’s barely nothing left of her white dress made out of organza and tulle. It’s full of black mud and blood. Staring into the dis- tance, it’s dicult for her to breathe. Her lifeless face, dirtied with mud, soil, blood... she can’t stop crying. Although she tries to calm herself the crying is stronger, deeper. THE BRIDE, alone underneath a dried tree in the middle of a swamp, screams out loud, torn, endless... comfortless. LEONARDO, THE GROOM and THE BRIDE, play together. Three kids in a forest at the banks of a river. The three form an inseparable triangle. However LEONARDO and THE BRIDE share an invisible string, ferocious, unbreakable... THE GROOM looks at them... Years have gone by, and THE BRIDE is getting ready for her wedding. She’s unhappy. Doubt and anxiety consume her. She lives in the middle of white dessert lands, barren, in her father’s house with a glass forge.

Many of the Premiere fi lmmakers were returning directors (Errol Morris, Tom DiCillo, Victor Nunez, Gregg Araki, Kevin Smith), whose earlier, sometimes unknown, work had received a warm reception at Sundance. The Piper-Heidsieck tribute to independent vision went to actor/director Tim Robbins, and a major retrospective of the works of German New-Wave giant Rainer Werner Fassbinder was staged, with many of his original actors fl own in for forums. It was a fi tting tribute to both Fassbinder and the Festival and the ways that American independent cinema was indeed becoming international.

The many subtleties of Iranian Cinema has also stemmed from the filmmakers’ need to circumvent the harsh censorship rules of the state and the financial limitations imposed on independent filmmakers. Despite these limitations, post‐revolutionary Iranian Cinema has been a reGular feature at major film festivals around the Globe. The minimalist Art Cinema of Iran often blurs the borders between documentary and fiction films. Directors employ non‐professional actors. Male and female directors and actors darinGly explore the themes of Gender inequality and sexual exploitation of women in their work, even thouGh censorship laws forbid female and male actors from touchinG one another. In the process, filmmakers have created aesthetically sublime metaphors that bypass the censors and directly communicate with a universal audience. This course is an introduction to contemporary Iranian cinema and its interaction with Political Islam. Special attention will be paid to how Iranian Realism has 1 developed a more tolerant discourse on Islam, culture, Gender, and ethnicity for Iran and the Iranian plateau, with films about Iran, AfGhanistan, and Central Asia.

ABSTRACT My thesis focuses on the perceptive afflictions caused by alteration of the normal biological functioning of sight and memory. These afflictions are related to the redefinition and disgregation of the classical and postclassical cinematographic characters, and affect cinematographic language, establishing a dialectical relation with the filmic image that contaminates our spectatorial perception. In the first chapter I propose a different reading of a few moments in film history, turning points in which a modification of the ordinary sensorial patterns has been introduced. From the German Expressionism to the late authorial experiments of the 60s, there is a sort of hidden history of film that passes through the continuous redefinition of the audience sensory activity.

  • In New Iranian Cinema
    UNIVERSITEIT VAN AMSTERDAM DEPARTMENT OF MEDIA STUDIES MASTER THESIS RETHINKING THE ’TYPICAL’ IN NEW IRANIAN CINEMA A STUDY ON (FEMALE) REPRESENTATION AND LOCATION IN JAFAR PANAHI’S WORK Master in Film and Media Studies Thesis supervisor: Dr. Gerwin van der Pol 2nd reader: Dr. Emiel Martens Date of Completion: 20th May 2019 i ABSTRACT Contemporary Iranian cinema has been acknowledged and praised by film critics, festivals and audiences worldwide. The recent international acclaim that Iranian films have received since the late 1980s, and particularly through the 1990s, show the significance that the films’ exhibition and reception outside Iran has played in the transformation of cinema in Iran, developing certain themes and aesthetics that have become known to be ‘typical’ Iranian and that are the focus of this paper. This survey explores Iranian film culture through the lens of Jafar Panahi and the poetics of his work. Panahi’ films, in past and present, have won numerous prizes within the international festival circuit and have been interpreted by audiences and critics around the world. Although officially banned from his profession since 2010, the Iranian filmmaker has found its ‘own’ creative ways to circumvent the limitations of censorship and express its nation’s social and political issues on screen. After providing a brief historical framework of the history of Iranian cinema since the 1990s, the survey will look at Panahi’s work within two categories. Panahi’s first three feature films will be explored under the aspects of Iranian children’s films, self-reflexivity and female representation(s). With regards to Panahi’s ‘exilic’ position and his current ban on filmmaking, the survey will analyze one of Panahi’s recent self-portrait works to exemplify the filmmaker use of ‘accented’ characteristics in terms of authorship and the meaning of location (open and closed spaces).

Like our Northwest Film & Video Festival, which celebrates the unique visions of artists in our community, PIFF seeks to engage, educate, entertain and challenge. We invite you to explore and celebrate not only the art of film, but also the world around you. It is said that film is a universal language—able to transcend geographic, political and cultural boundaries in a singular fashion. In the spirit of Robert Louis Stevenson’s famous observation, “There are no foreign lands. It is the traveler who is foreign,” this year’s films allow us to discover what unites rather than what divides. The Festival also unites our community, bringing together culturally diverse audiences, a remarkable cross-section of cinematic voices, public and private funders of the arts, corporate sponsors and global film industry members. This fabulous ecology makes the event possible, and we wish our credits at the back of the program could better convey our deep appreci- ation of all who help make the Festival happen.

Numerosas iniciativas de acceso al empleo para los mayores la usan como referente reivindicativo. El estudio busca la comprensión de la imagen que el film ofrece sobre los desem- pleados mayores, con objeto de analizar las actitudes y experiencias de los per- sonajes frente al desempleo y del propio imaginario social sobre esta temática. La metodología utilizada es el análisis fílmico desde una vertiente discursiva y analítico-reflexiva, centrada principalmente en el análisis del hecho discursivo del film.
