  • The EU Film Industry in the Spotlight at the Venice International Film Festival
    The EU film industry in the spotlight at the Venice International Film Festival Five films which have been awarded EU funding are competing in the prestigious 72nd Venice International Film Festival between 2 and 9 September. The European Commission has invested around €260,000 through the Creative Europe MEDIA programme to support the development and distribution of these films, which are taking part in the Official Selection and Orizzonti competitions. Venice Film Festival Films in the Official selection Three EU-supported films will be shown as world premieres in the Venezia 72 competition for feature films: Marguerite, 1921, a big castle not far from Paris. Marguerite, the owner, is affluent and devotes all of her time to her passion: music. Loosely based on the life of the American soprano Florence Foster Jenkins, who became famous between 1930 and 1940 thanks to her poor singing skills, the film is a French, Czech and Belgian co-production, directed by Xavier Giannoli. It stars Catherine Frot, André Marcon, Michel Fau, Christa Théret, Denis Mpunga, Sylvain Dieuaide. A Bigger Splash, this thriller feature the rock star Marianne Lane and Paul, her film director fiancé, who are on holiday in Pantelleria. The sudden visit of Harry, and his daughter Penelope, will drag all the characters into a whirlpool of passion and jealousy. A remake of the French detective film La piscine (1968), this is an Italian, French production starring Tilda Swinton, Ralph Fiennes, Matthias Schoenaerts, Dakota Johnson, Corrado Guzzanti, directed by Luca Guadagnino. L’Hermine, the story starts the day before a trial: during the hearing, something extraordinary will happen and will change everything.

  • The New Morphology of European Film Festivals (Case Study: Transilvania
    The 2017 WEI International Academic Conference Proceedings Barcelona, Spain THE NEW MORPHOLOGY OF EUROPEAN FILM FESTIVALS (CASE STUDY: TRANSILVANIA INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL) lecturer Ileana Nicoleta Sălcudean Cinematography and Media Department Faculty of Theater and Television Babes-Bolyai University, Cluj-Napoca Abstract: The international film festivals are nevertheless ”inherently linked to societal and cultural concerns” (Elsaesser 2005, 27). The new morphology of film festivals brings a new light on film festivals and the theory of culture, especially with the new reconfiguration of festivals Europe, the insertion of new technologies and new opportunities to create networks. The research approach is defined at the intersection of cultural studies, sociology of culture and cultural anthropology, seeking a new vocabulary of film culture in the new socio-political context. In terms of cultural studies I analyze the social and political context of creative industries (mainly film production); an important contribution of cultural studies and sociology of culture refers to the tension between citizenship and consumerism. From the point of view of cultural anthropology, I analyze the new film festival rendering the distinction space/ place; mapping/ tracking (Elsaesser, 2004, pp. 185-188) replacing universal/ particular; local/ global, following contemporary approaches of convergence and network as more efficient in the globalization context. European film festivals shift away from the stereotyped category of nation and auteur as connected to Europe towards the global economy and the city (Valck, 2007, p. 30). The case study of Transilvania International Film Festival is bringing forth questions regarding the Western European vs. Eastern European film festival models and how are the Eastern and Central European festivals incorporating the traits of the Western European film festival.

  • Anna's War by A.Fedorchenko (Premiere IFFR 2018)
    ANNA’S WAR by Aleksey Fedorchenko World premiere International Film Festival Rotterdam Section: Voices Screenings IFFR: Sun 28 Jan, 14:30, Doelen Jurriaanse Zaal - P&I screening Sun 28 Jan, 20:00, Pathé 1 - world premiere Mon 29 Jan, 10:00, Pathé 5 Tue 30 Jan, 10:30, LantarenVenster 1 Fri 2 Feb, 13:30, Doelen Jurriaanse Zaal Press contact: NOISE Film PR Mirjam Wiekenkamp [email protected] +49 176 28771839 SYNOPSIS It is the year 1941. Amidst the mass coordinated execution of Jews the entire family of a 6-year-old Anna dies. Her mother covers Anna up with her own body, and the girl miraculously survives. She hides in the disused chimney in the Nazi commander’s office - without food or water, in solitude and fear. So begins a story of the struggle for life that lasts for over two years. So begins this story of the struggle for life, of fighting against the huge and terrifying world of adults. The story of a war in which a little Jewish girl prevails. Anna’s War has been financed through private funding only. DIRECTOR'S STATEMENT ​ ​ A little Jewish girl and the Second World War. One and only hero. Cinematic space is limited to the insides of a fireplace, and the geography of events is limited to the classroom of a village school that had been turned into a Nazi commandant’s office. Inside the fireplace the girl finds a safe place where she makes a nest for herself. A home. Outside is an insane world of adults. We see it’s reflection in a bubbly amalgam on the old mirror.
