When a crew of foreign workers is massacred by an Islamic fundamentalist group, fear sweeps though the region. The army offers them protection, but the monks refuse. Should they leave? Despite the growing menace in their midst, they slowly realize that they have no choice but to stay… come what may. This film is loosely based on the life of the Cistercian monks of Tibhirine in Algeria, from 1993 until their kidnapping in 1996. PREAMBLE In 1996 the kidnapping and murder of the seven French monks of Tibhirine was one of the culminating points of the violence and atrocities in Algeria resulting from the confrontation between the government and extremist terrorist groups that wanted to overthrow it. The disappearance of the monks – caught in a vice between both sides- had a great and long-lasting effect on the governments, religious communities and international public opinion. The identity of the murderers and the exact circumstances of the monks‟ deaths remain a mystery to this day.

  • MIKAEL CROSS Presenterar
    MIKAEL CROSS presenterar En film av Tobias Leo Nordquist i samproduktion med Film i Dalarna, Ljud & Bildmedia AB, Nordic United AB & Index Equity Sweden AB VITT SKRÄP är en spännande actionthriller som utspelas på 80-talet med en nick till några av de mest minnesvärda spänningsfilmerna med oförglömliga karaktärer, och en blandning av komedi och action där alla kämpar för att få kontroll över sina öden – och för en del av bytet. Den unika regin och ljuddesignen i VITT SKRÄP för publikens tankar till gangsterfilmklassikerna ”Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels” och Tarantinos legendariska ”Pulp Fiction”. En nyskapande film med action i ursinnigt, pulshöjande och oförutsägbart tempo. Ola Rapace Ida Engvoll Handlingen i korthet I sökandet efter försoning med sitt förflutna hamnar Sami (Ola Rapace) i ett litet samhälle där han träffar Kim (Ida Engvoll). De båda möter den lokale gangstern Gubben (Donald Högberg) som driver ett till synes sofistikerat metamfetaminimperium tillsammans med sina två söner Conny (Peter Viitanen) och Kenneth (Erik Bolin). Till en början är allt frid och fröjd men när droger börjar cirkulera på bygden utan Gubbens tillåtelse riktas uppmärksamheten mot nykomlingen Sami som inser att han är i en farlig situation. För att komma undan med livet i behåll måste han snabbt göra upp en plan. Donald Högberg Erik Bolin Peter Viitanen Dakota Trancher Williams Tobias Leo Nordquist – regi Efter en fil kand i Theater Arts från universitetet i San Diego 2006 började Tobias arbeta som filmfotograf och klippare, men insåg snart att det var det var som regissör och producent han ville verka. Bara två år senare grundade han sitt eget produktionsbolag Carnivale Pictures och har sedan dess regisserat och producerat prisbelönade kortfilmer, dokumentärer, TV-serier och musikvideor.

  • Bassam El Baroni: Good Morning. Today We Have Raed Yassin with Us, Who’S Showing His Video the New Film at Photocairo4: the Long Shortcut
    Bassam El Baroni: Good morning. Today we have Raed Yassin with us, who’s showing his video The New Film at PhotoCairo4: The Long Shortcut. His video is part of an ongoing exploration of the aesthetics and political background of Egyptian cinema. But first we thought to start with an introduction, while another of his videos is being projected in the background. This is a video called Tonight that you created in 2007. In this video you use an image, or rather a seven-second sequence from a feature film. The film is called – ? Raed Yassin: The Amulet. Baroni: When I first saw this video I felt that it has strong connections to a painterly tradition, to 17th century portraiture like Velazquez. Could you elaborate on this? Yassin: This is a very simple piece, and even though it’s only one image, it needed a very long period of research to get to this result. I started researching the idea of watching someone who’s watching you. And then I had an introduction to Velazquez through Michel Foucault’s book, where he wrote about Las Meniñas, which is a painting in which you see people who are really watching you, and he talks about their looks, and how they are. And this is where I make a parallel to Velazquez’ work, but my main interest is Egyptian cinema, and especially Egyptian cinema in the 80s. Baroni: Why the 80s? Yassin: The first question I was interested in was why does the cinema of the 80s look so different from that of the 60s, 70s, and then later the 90s, and why is it that even the very serious films look so trashy? For me, the 80s was a period when all the big ideas about the Arab world that our fathers and ourselves had been living, growing and believing in – ideas of nationalism and socialism – became an illusion.

  • GSC Films: S-Z
    GSC Films: S-Z Saboteur 1942 Alfred Hitchcock 3.0 Robert Cummings, Patricia Lane as not so charismatic love interest, Otto Kruger as rather dull villain (although something of prefigure of James Mason’s very suave villain in ‘NNW’), Norman Lloyd who makes impression as rather melancholy saboteur, especially when he is hanging by his sleeve in Statue of Liberty sequence. One of lesser Hitchcock products, done on loan out from Selznick for Universal. Suffers from lackluster cast (Cummings does not have acting weight to make us care for his character or to make us believe that he is going to all that trouble to find the real saboteur), and an often inconsistent story line that provides opportunity for interesting set pieces – the circus freaks, the high society fund-raising dance; and of course the final famous Statue of Liberty sequence (vertigo impression with the two characters perched high on the finger of the statue, the suspense generated by the slow tearing of the sleeve seam, and the scary fall when the sleeve tears off – Lloyd rotating slowly and screaming as he recedes from Cummings’ view). Many scenes are obviously done on the cheap – anything with the trucks, the home of Kruger, riding a taxi through New York. Some of the scenes are very flat – the kindly blind hermit (riff on the hermit in ‘Frankenstein?’), Kruger’s affection for his grandchild around the swimming pool in his Highway 395 ranch home, the meeting with the bad guys in the Soda City scene next to Hoover Dam. The encounter with the circus freaks (Siamese twins who don’t get along, the bearded lady whose beard is in curlers, the militaristic midget who wants to turn the couple in, etc.) is amusing and piquant (perhaps the scene was written by Dorothy Parker?), but it doesn’t seem to relate to anything.
