Pirmsziemassvētku laiks. Ja dodies pa Čaka ielu Vecrīgas virzienā gan agri no rīta, gan vēlu vakarā vari sastapt mundri soļojošu vīrieti tumšā mētelī. Viņu daudzi sveicina. Jo viņu daudzi pazīst… Pat uz ielas. Pat tumšā mētelī. Daži viņā ierauga lielisku pasniedzēju, kas negaidīti, taču uz visu mūžu, kādreiz atklājis brīnumaino dokumentālā kino pasauli. Dažiem viņš ir pirmais, kas nekad nav kautrējies izteikt kritiku par tikko uzņemtu filmu. Dažiem viņš ir dzīves vērotājs, kura publicētās atziņas par laiku ir tik dziļas, ka tikai retajam nav bail tik tālu skatīties. Dažiem viņš ir politiķis. Kurš vairākkārt pēdējos gados iepazinis vismelnākos brīžus. Dažiem viņš ir draugs. Vienkārši draugs. Šis cilvēks – Latvijas Universitātes asociētais profesors Ābrams Kleckins – nesen nosvinēja 75 gadu jubileju. Mēs – viņa kolēģi – vienojāmies uzdāvināt jubilāram savas domas: par padomju un mūsdienu žurnālistiku (1. nodaļa), par dokumentālo un spēlkino (2. nodaļa), par Latvijas un ārzemju politiku (3. nodaļa). Mums pievienojās profesora draugi. Viņi vēlējās uzdāvināt jubilāram domas par dzīvi un mākslu. Par mākslu dzīvot (Jubilejas atbalss). Raksti tapuši kopš 2007. gada, un krīzei par spīti tomēr pārtapuši krājumā. Tagad jau domu būtu vēl vairāk. Un gadu ir vairāk. Laiks iet. Stāsts par to nekad nebeigsies.

Atslēgvārdi: komunikācijas kvalitāte, žurnālista patība, intelektuālisms, ētika, autentiskums. “Apzināšanās nekad nav tikai tīri vērojošs process; tā ir iesaiste, atbalsts vai noliegums.” (Simona de Bovuāra)1 Pragmatisma zeme un ideāla debesis. Pragmatisma – komerclietu, karjeras, labklājības un citu praktisku tieksmju ielenkumā nav pierasts domāt par dažām vispārējākām un pārikdienišķā- kām lietām, kas iederētos kvalitatīvā komunikācijā, lai saglabātu plašāka kopsakara domātspēju un nesašaurinātu patību. Dominējošais prakticisms uz laiku atvirzījis perifērijā transcendenci, jābūtību, potenciālo, kaut gan īstenībā pārpraktiskais palīdz labāk orientēties aktuāli notiekošās lietās un saprast tās, domājot gan par sekām, gan perspektīvu. Viena no pārikdienišķām lietām kopš kultūras sākumiem iekļauta diskusijās par ideālo, par problemātisko jābūtību, Platona pārjuteklisko absolūto ideju. Vesels pētījums attaisnotos attiecī- bā uz ideālā diskursu kā kultūras sastāvdaļu un to, kā tas atklājas vēsturiski un mūsdienās: kādos vārdos tas izteikts, kādos naratīvos ietverts, kā atzīts vai izslēgts no ikdienas, kad un kāpēc. Kopš Platona/Sokrata dialogiem arvien – vājāk vai spilgtāk un spēcīgāk – kultūrā ir uzturēta diskusija par cēlo, transcendento, nepiepildīto un nepiepildāmo. Savukārt Aristoteļa ētikā pārdomas par ideālo ietvertas potenciālā jēdzienā, kurā veikts piezemētāks, ne-mistisks papildinājums Platona pārpasaulīgai absolūtai idejai, tādējādi ievirzot to darbībā. Potenciālais iekļauts praktiskā darbībā un pārstāv nepiepildīto, neesošo, ko padara vispirms par vēlamu, tad par īstenu teleoloģijas jeb mērķu sfēra. Ideālais caurauž esošo tā tapšanā un attīstībā, mazinot platoniskās pārpasaulīgās idejas un pasaulīgo tieksmju pretstatu. Vēlmes un mērķi ievirza kustību, tiecību pēc cita, citādā, nepiepildītā, vēl nebijušā, pēc pārmaiņām, attīstības un pilnveides. Bez mērķiem, kas izsaka potenciālo, nebūtu iespējams dzīves dinamisms, kustība un pilnveide. Kā vajadzētu dzīvot? Kādam vajadzētu būt cilvēkam? Kā nošķirt jēgu no bezjēdzīgā? Tie neapšaubāmi ir nepraktiski, nemērķtiecīgi un dažkārt tūlītējiem panākumiem traucējoši jautā- jumi. Tomēr tie tiek uzturēti kultūrā. Līdzsvars starp īstenoto esošo un neīstenoto potenciālo filozofijā, mākslā, reliģijā arvien uzturēts, aizstāvot pārpraktisko un pārliecinot par tā dīvaino vērtību. Potenciālais iekļauj distancēti transcendento, kas vienlaikus nošķirams no šeit un tagad sasniedzamiem, visbiežāk savtīgiem mērķiem. Pārikdienišķā ideāla domāšana nosaka mērogus, kā vērtēt darāmo un darīto, kā nošķirt jēgu no bezjēdzīgā, kā lemt, ko atmest, ko kopt, attīstīt, lai bagātinātos dzīve un patība kopā ar sabiedrību

Contemporary Catalan cinema resonates significantly with the images being created by artists all over the world. The vitality of the cinema being made here is manifested in the works of upcoming filmmakers who, with their aesthetic and thematic proposals, create cinematographic dialogues with other contemporary filmmakers. These dialogues are based not on similarity, instead contrasting the creative concerns of these artists. A field/counter field, like a question/answer, in which the images can either connect or question each other, becoming possible parts of a single discourse.

    Cinema We extend our gratitude and appreciation to all the authors and consultants who made a valued contribution to this project by devoting their time and energy. A very special thank you to those artists and institutions who provided materials from their collections. Preface 9 Documentary Cinema: The Flowing River of Time 11 New Lithuanian Feature Films 19 Short Films 25 The Artistic and Stylistic Features of Lithuanian Animation 27 Catalogue 35 Organisations 79 Preface Over the last two decades, Lithuanian cinema has continued to attract international attention. The country’s film industry is regularly represented by the films of Šarūnas Bartas, Arūnas Matelis, Audrius Stonys, Gytis Lukšas and Kristijonas Vildžiūnas. New names are starting to appear alongside these recognised directors, such as Kristina Buožytė and Mantas Kvedaravičius, who have had successful premières at the Berlin International Film Festival and the Karlovy Vary International Film Festival. There is also a provocative new generation that is looking for roads that have yet to be travelled, such as Lina Lužytė, Dovilė Šarutytė and Jūratė Samulionytė, who highlight problems concerning the personal and social identity. The well-established tradition of auteur cinema in Lithuania is coming into contact with new stylistic and thematic trends, which we would like to present in this publication. Documentary Cinema: The Flowing River of Time By Živilė Pipinytė Obscure Beginnings Lithuanian cinema is one of the youngest in Europe. Professional national cinematography started relatively late, only in the mid-20th century. Its beginnings are to be found in the stories told by the early filmmakers. One of these legends marks the beginning of documentary cinema.

Space-time formations in the South Indian Tamil popular film Kannathil Muthamittal. International Journal of Asia Pacific Studies 14 (2): 143–164, https://doi.org/ 10.21315/ijaps2018.14.2.7 To link to this article: https://doi.org/10.21315/ijaps2018.14.2.7 ABSTRACT In tandem with the current development of film scholarships in the area of the world and national cinemas, the paper seeks to examine four scenes from the South Indian Tamil popular film “Kannathil Muthamittal” (English: A Peck on the Cheek) using a concept derived from Hamid Naficy’s theorisation of an accented cinema known as the filmmakers’ “preoccupation with the place.” The conception is cinematically expressed through spatial representations of the open, closed and the third space- time formations. In the accented cinema, space-time formations are cinematic spatial aspects that are employed to produce or reproduce the fundamental “accent” of displacement and deterritorialisation. According to Naficy, the accent predominantly originates from the filmmakers’ experiences and their artisanal productions and not so much from their accented lingo.
