From Tunis to Belgium with Ghalia Benali Interviewed by Huda Asfour Where is the Revolution: An Interview with Abbas Kiarostami Like Share 1K people like this. Sign Up to see what your friends like. Tweet by Shiva Rahbaran Sep 07 2016 Listen Abbas Kiarostami agreed to give an interview only reluctantly. I reminded him insistently that the absence of a filmmaker with whom film is supposed to end (see below), would be catastrophic for a project whose subject is post-revolutionary New Iranian Cinema. Eventually, he agreed. Sitting across from me, he grins ironically. Kiarostami says that ever since Alberto Elena decided to quote Jean-Luc Godard, “Film begins with D.W. Griffith and ends with Abbas Kiarostami,” on the cover of his monograph The Cinema of Abbas Kiarostami,[1] that remark is mentioned every time someone says or publishes anything about Kiarostami. He is at pains to point out that Godard made this statement only in relation to Life, and Nothing More (1992), also known as And Life Goes On, the second part of [Abbas Kiarostami. Image by Mohammad Hassanzadeh via Kiarostami’s Earthquake Trilogy, which is also known as the Koker Trilogy Wikipedia] (the other two parts being Where is the Friend’s Home? (1987) and Through the Olive Trees (1994)). However, Kiarostami explains, the statements that Godard has made about him in the last ten or fifteen years clearly show that Godard no longer believes that film ends with Kiarostami.

TREADING IN LITTLE STEPS: MY ASIAN CINEMA JIGSAW Dina IORDANOVA ‘. all these little steps that took me away from my usual life and that led me on to the thread of another one’ Tiziano Terzani When I hit my mid-fifties, I realised that the discovery of Asia, which took place in equal degrees through travel and through viewing films, since my first visit in 1994, had been a defining moment in my life. It could easily not have happened and yet it did. And it is growing in importance as I journey further through the years. Unlike most of those who specialise in the cinema of Asia, I come from Eastern Europe and not from Asia. My background is in Western culture and not in Asian culture or film; I wrote a doctoral thesis on German Romanticism and later on worked on the cinema of Europe. I have never had the chance to live and work in Asia for a prolonged period of time, as many of my academic friends have; my longest stays in any Asian contexts were less than three months in duration. And, similar to my comings and goings to Asian destinations, my journey to the cinema of Asia feels like putting together a jigsaw puzzle. It consists of many little, seemingly unrelated steps, that do come together and start making sense, and form an emerging picture, only over time.

Using the first three feature films from directors Bruno Dumont and Gaspar Noé as my central case studies, this research attempts to bring forth analyses of the Extremity’s transgressive nature as both mirroring the nation’s own transgressive cultural shifts, and as constituting the films’ central theme.

I examine the aesthetic, political, social and economic strategies utilized by these filmmakers to reinsert themselves into recorded versions of history, and/or to intervene in racist, (neo)colonial and/or patriarchal systems of oppression. 2 CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION Purpose and Scope of the Dissertation This dissertation examines the aesthetic, political, social and economic strategies utilized by selected Afro-Caribbean women filmmakers in exploiting the media of film and video to reinsert themselves into recorded versions of history, to challenge their (mis)representations, and/or to intervene in racist, (neo)colonial and/or patriarchal systems of oppression.1 I offer what I have termed a “pan-African feminist” analytical framework2 as a methodological tool to examine the manner in which these Afro- Caribbean women filmmakers have negotiated, individually as well as collectively, the gender/race/class constraints within each of their societies in order to obtain access to the media of film and video, to adopt culturally relevant communication strategies and themes, and to pursue their goals of social transformation and cultural empowerment.

The aim of the study is to analyze how women are represented in Iranian popular cinema and whether women have been successful in transgression from the private to the public in the last three decades in Iranian society. The theoretical framework of the research is the feminist film theory. Therefore, the research method is a combination of psychoanalysis and semiotics as the textual analysis. The post-revolutionary era in Iran has been divided into four periods, in terms of political changes: the post-revolutionary and war era (1979-1988), the Reconstruction era (1989-1996), the Reform era (1997-2004) and post-Reform era (2005-2009).

Is there something genuinely "theatrical," different in kind from what is genuinely "cinematic"? Almost all opinion holds that there is. A commonplace of discussion has it that film and theatre are distinct and even antithetical arts, each giving rise to its own standards of judgment and canons of form. Thus Erwin Panofsky argues, in his celebrated essay "Style and Medium in the Motion Pictures" (1934, rewritten in 1946), that one of the criteria for evaluating a movie is its freedom from the impurities of theatricality. To talk about film, one must first define "the basic nature of the medium." Those who think prescriptively about the nature of live drama, less confident in the future of their art than the cinephiles in theirs, rarely take a comparably exclusivist line.

  • Viewing African Cinema in the Twenty-First Century: Art Films And
    Introduction ralph a. austen and mahir saul Compared to other film industries in the world, African cinema is a quite recent phenomenon, dating only from the last half of the twentieth century. However, as indicated by the references in the chapters that follow, there is no shortage of books and articles devoted to its works, its producers, and its audiences. The great change in the twenty-first century (one that actu- ally began in the 1990s) is the coexistence of two distinct African cinemas: a (relatively) long established tradition of celluloid art films centered in French- speaking West Africa and identified with its biennial FESPACO (Festival Panafricain du Cinéma et de la Télévision de Ouagadougou) and a newer, more commercial video film industry based in English-speaking Africa and labeled, after its major Nigerian source, Nollywood. The present book is the first extended effort to combine studies of both these cinemas. African filmmaking first took off in the early 1960s, during the euphoric years of decolonization. The very diverse works of this new industry are diffi- cult to define as either a national or an aesthetic school. The films do, however, share four important characteristics: first, they more closely resemble the “art cinema” of contemporary Europe than commercially dominant Hollywood (or Egyptian and Indian) models; second, they were made overwhelmingly in francophone countries; third, their production depended heavily on support of various kinds from the French film establishment and the French state; finally (and this did not require comment until recently), they used celluloid film (usually 16mm), very cheap for their time but still requiring costly processing 1 ralph a.
