Crawford the End Gunnin' for That No. 1 Spot

David Modigliani’s Crawford is a feature-length doc about a small town in Texas that is turned upside down by George W Bush’s politically-motivated decision to move there. A baffling choice, at first, you’d think – until we learn that Bush wants a bit of the town to rub off on his newly-announced presidential campaign. Bush needs us to see him as a more folksy, down- to-earth character and Crawford, he’s hoping, will give him all that. But what does he give the resident population? For some, his asso- ciation with their hometown is a massive boom and especially good for tourism. For others, his living there creates big problems. Bush’s war in Iraq is splitting the residents into patriots and traitors and soon, this once-sleepy town is the scene of much unrest. Modigliani moves swiftly from character to character, and gives us an insight into both sides of the left/right divide. We meet protesting students, willful teachers and CRAWFORD scarily Republican pastors. One of the most explosive elements in the film WEDNESDAY 8 OCTOBER AT 5PM is the sentiment stirred up by anti-war activist Cindy Sheehan, who lost Country USA Running Time 73 mins Format HDV SCREENING SPONSOR her son who had been stationed in Iraq during the ‘war against terror’.

Nicola Collins’ directorial debut explores the violent history of her father, infamous criminal Les ‘I thought I was a Robin Hood, everyone else thought I was a robbin’ bastard’ Falco and his friends – renowned in the East End for being amongst some of London’s most notorious gangsters. As she grew up a member of an infamous criminal underworld family, Nicola’s position within the inner circle provided her with unique access to document their lives. She is a witness to their revelations of a bloody history and extracts confessions from the ‘Old Boys’ in a direct and honest manner never seen before. Discovering their ‘code of honour’ she reveals their explanations for their crimes. Despite their violent past, the men emerge as charming, even likeable, abiding by their own strict moral code. Each character is as intriguing as the next, as they air their views on a variety of topics ranging from religious encounters to barred bank accounts and THE END how they ended up in a life of crime while growing up in a poverty-stricken WEDNESDAY 8 OCTOBER AT 7PM & THURSDAY 9 OCTOBER AT 2:30PM East End.

Rucker Park is known across the US as the court at which the great basketball players of the next generation make their names known, where great talents meet and play ball, where sponsorship is immaterial. Gunnin’ for That No. 1 Spot follows the chosen young men, all from different walks of life, as they prepare for the stepping stone towards superstardom. Adam Yauch, of the Beastie Boys, litters his doc with interviews with the young players, their relatives and an array of experts whose testimony chal- lenges the idealised view of celebrity and highlights both the advantages and disadvantages of mass media attention. One of the film’s strengths is the likeability of the boys around which it is based including one whose mother passed when he was young and inspired him to dedicate himself to his passion, was asked who his favorite basketball player in the entire world, NBA included. He responded, completely earnest, ‘My brother’. GUNNIN’ FOR THAT NO. 1 SPOT Yauch indulges the spectacle of the tricks and skills done by the young SATURDAY 4 OCTOBER AT 7:15PM men.

SIXTEENTH RAINDANCE FILM FESTIVAL 71 In 1914, Fritz Haber is Germany’s greatest chemist. His Nobel prize-winning fertilizers have saved the world from mass starvation. But as World War I breaks out across Europe, slaughtering millions of young soldiers, the desperate German military asks Haber to invent an entirely new kind of weapon. Already having sacrificed his Jewish identity and his wife’s career to achieve success, Haber’s decision not only unleashes weapons of mass destruction for the first time in human history, but threatens to destroy his family as well.

Many musicians tell of escaping the ghetto, but for most their ghetto is not institutional care. Heavy Load tells the story of a punk band of the same name whose members include some with learning disabilities. Referred to as ‘Lewes answer to The Ramones’, the usual clash of egos and desires of the touring band mix with a world of day centres and social workers. Beginning with playing at disability club nights, the film watches the band break out into the mainstream and record their first album, and pro- duces a comedy of conflict and dreams that never once becomes preachy. The band members’ disabilities are never the focus of the story, but simply another facet of their struggle to ‘make it’. The music itself shows a joy in the pleasure to be had from making a noise, from the frenzied anarchy with which they imbue Kylie’s Can’t Get You Out Of My Head to a punk hymn to Eastenders’ Frank Butcher. HEAVY LOAD The film also deals with the effect of the film itself on the band with what THURSDAY 2 OCTOBER AT 6:30PM were once hidden dreams of fame and fortune rising to the surface and Country UK Running Time 91 mins Format HDV Director Jerry Rothwell Producers All threatening the future of the band.

Michael Wanguhu’s lively documentary celebrates the recent emergence of hip hop culture in Kenya, a nation still emerging from the hangover of British colonial rule. It introduces us to the movers and shakers of the scene, such as the new wave of record producers like Tedd Josiah of Bluezebra records and Steve Ominde of Soul Child records and artists such as Nazizi, Big Mike and DJ John. Originally inspired by the fashions and musical styles of the American scene, Kenyan hip hop has quickly established its own voice, with its artists rapping in both Swahili and English and dealing with topics relevant to their everyday lives. Wanguhu’s camera follows his subjects from their homes in the ghet- toes and suburbs of Nairobi through their producers’ studios all the way up to their live performances in front of thousands of avid fans, giving us a unique access to the broader picture of the culture and society of this HIP HOP COLONY vibrant country than we’re usually afforded.

72 SIXTEENTH RAINDANCE FILM FESTIVAL At the age of 31, father and writer Ben Byers starts to notice that some- thing is wrong. After being diagnosed with the neuro-degenerative disease ALS (Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis), his world is turned upside down. But instead of submitting to the exceedingly aggressive and usually fatal con- dition, Ben struggles to keep it together, and plans on a positive course of action, complete with his admirable ability to retain his sense of humour. We follow Ben as he consults other ALS sufferers and various experts in the field and as he journeys to the East to investigate new therapies. Watching him document his regression and trying to understand by asking various spiritual leaders he asks why he should suffer like this and we root for him when he hears of an operation that could change his life. But ALS isn’t everything that he has to worry about: his father’s mission to influence and instruct other sufferers is at odds with what Ben wants.

At the height of their popularity the East African Zawose Family were signed to Peter Gabriel’s Real World Records and were world-renowned. ‘The voices of angels’ was how Gabriel described the music, a mesmeris- ing blend of violins, thumb-pianos and Tanzanian harps. In Lay Down Your Hearts we are introduced to Hukwe – a dynamic man, with seven wives and over forty children – who took his musical dynasty to play all over the world. But everything changed after the sudden deaths of Hukwe and Charles, the most senior members of the troupe. Now the family, rid of the glamorous past, must fight for their survival and learn to live with the stigma of having lost family members to AIDS. GB

Driven by a hip-hop soundtrack, alternating between brilliant colour for the matches and grainy black and white for the tower blocks and graffiti-strewn playgrounds where Nhamo recruits his players, Charles-Henri Belleville’s (dir The Inheritance, RD ’07) doc is less about basketball as a game than a means to illustrate problems facing youth in inner city Britain. Basketball is ‘artistic and ballet-like… you get this sense of inner peace and intoxication,’ says Nhamo, one of the player stars of Midnight Madness, a title that refers to the tournaments that rage from midnight until dawn across twelve British cities, culminating in London where the ten best players go to LA to compete against the top amateur US team. The tournament is the brainchild of Nhamo Shire, who launched the first match in 1999 in his native Harlesden, using his own stereo for a PA and renting the hall with his own money. ‘At every step of my life, I’ve faced MIDNIGHT MADNESS adversity,’ he says by way of explaining why he started the tournaments to SUNDAY 12 OCTOBER AT 5:30PM counterbalance the pull of gangs and crime in the inner city.

SIXTEENTH RAINDANCE FILM FESTIVAL 73 Sigmund Freud suggested that we all have a ‘death drive’; an instinct which prods us towards destruction and non-existence. Toni, the subject of Xavier Baig’s and Oscar Moreno’s doc, appears to embrace this theory. Physically deteriorating because of his substance abuse and accumulating illness count, Toni has lost none of his petulant charm. He knows that he is approaching death but he remains unapologetic; instead, Toni justifies his lifestyle, condemns those around him for being ‘ordinary’ and repeat- edly insinuates that he is omnipotent. Despite his addiction, every time he inhales oxygen, he follows it up with a splif. It is not Toni’s likeability which compels one to continue watching Hoy el Dia se Repite Diferente but rather the fascinating manner with which he deals with his impending death. With surprising depth this shows a humanising vulnerability which is punctuated by a moment of realisation: ‘It’s incredible’ he remarks about TODAY, THE SAME DAY IS DIFFERENT [HOY EL…] the Spanish sunset, finally aware of his own insignificance.

Celia Maysles is on a mission: to learn about and understand the father who died when she was very young. After a long period of not dealing with the issue, she decides that she must make a film about her father. David Maysles, the father in question, was a well-respected independ- ent filmmaker, best known for Gimme Shelter about the Stones, and also praised for the equally accomplished Salesman and Grey Gardens (about the eccentric relations of Jackie Onassis). But not everything is plain sailing. Celia requires footage for her debut film – and there is plenty of it, much of it extremely edifying to her. But she encounters serious obstruction from her uncle Albert (who was David Maysles’ cameraman and filmmaking partner) who is also making a film about their unique creative relationship. Albert’s point of view is slightly different though. He is a serious film- WILD BLUE YONDER maker and has even been described by Jean Luc Godard as ‘America’s SATURDAY 11 OCTOBER AT 9PM best cameraman’.

The word kamikaze conjures up all manner of pictures in the West, a ter- rifying symbol of fanaticism and self-sacrifice that in the post-9/11 climate remains as emotive as ever. This fascinating collaboration between an American-born Japanese director Risa Morimoto and her Japanese-born American producer Linda Hoaglund, known for her subtitling work on films such as Studio Ghibli’s Spirited Away, puts a human face on those who gave their lives defending Japan’s airspace in the devastating final months of 1945, young boys fresh out of high school dispatched to an almost cer- tain death in dilapidated fighter planes after only the most rudimentary training. These Special Attack Units, known in Japan as Tokkotai, were the scourge of the American servicemen based on naval vessels stationed in the Pacific, yet few people are aware of how many kamikaze pilots sur- vived, either due to their engines failing as they embarked on their suicide WINGS OF DEFEAT missions, or as they awaited their final orders that failed to arrive.
