FILMBATH FESTIVAL 1-11 Nov 2018 Filmbathuk / Filmbath.Org.Uk 3 FILMBATH FESTIVAL 1-11 Nov 2018 FilmBathUK / filmbath.org.uk 3 HELLO & WELCOME At FilmBath we like to look on the bright side of life, so have chosen ‘Love Wins’ as the rallying cry for this year’s selection of films. Why? Well there’s little doubt that current news can be depressing, whether it’s abuse in the film industry, a beleaguered NHS or the turmoil of Brexit. Taking Jo Cox’s lead that ‘we are far more united and have far more in common with each other than things that divide us’, we are very proud to have a programme which is 55% directed by women, with superb films from every corner of the world and a wonderful LGBT strand. Don’t despair - love will win. Come on in.

    Saïd Ben Saïd presents Cherchez Hortense a Pascal BONITZER film Saïd Ben Saïd presents Cherchez Hortense A PASCAL BONITZER film Screenplay, adaptation and dialogues by AGNÈS DE SACY and PASCAL BONITZER with JEAN-PIERRE BACRI ISABELLE CARRÉ KRISTIN SCOTT THOMAS with the participation of CLAUDE RICH 1h40 – France – 2012 – SR/SRD – SCOPE INTERNATIONAL PR INTERNATIONAL SALES Magali Montet Saïd Ben Saïd Tel : +33 6 71 63 36 16 [email protected] [email protected] Delphine Mayele Tel : +33 6 60 89 85 41 [email protected] SYNOPSIS Damien is a professor of Chinese civilization who lives with his wife, Iva, a theater director, and their son Noé. Their love is mired in a mountain of routine and disenchantment. To help keep Zorica from getting deported, Iva gets Damien to promise he’ll go to his father, a state department official, for help. But Damien and his father have a distant and cool relationship. And this mission is a risky business which will send Damien spiraling downward and over the edge… INTERVIEW OF PASCAL BONITZER Like your other heroes (a philosophy professor, a critic, an editor), Damien is an intellectual. Why do you favor that kind of character? I know, that is seriously frowned upon. What can I tell you? I am who I am and my movies are also just a tiny bit about myself, though they’re not autobiographical. It’s not that I think I’m so interesting, but it is a way of obtaining a certain sincerity or authenticity, a certain psychological truth. Why do you make comedies? Comedy is the tone that comes naturally to me, that’s all.

De 18-jarige Camille (Rachelle Vinberg) doet niets liever dan hele dagen skateboarden, maar moet na een heftige valpartij haar moeder beloven om het nooit meer te doen. De liefde voor het skaten is echter te groot, en dus sluipt ze elke dag stiekem het huis uit met haar skateboard. Via Instagram komt Camille in contact met ‘The Skate Kitchen’, meiden die stuk voor stuk ‘leven om te skaten’. Ze voelt zich meteen welkom bij de groep en dankzij hun wilde levensstijl gaat er een nieuwe wereld voor haar open. Crystal Moselle maakte in 2015 veel indruk met de geprezen documentaire THE WOLFPACK over het bizarre levensverhaal van zes broers opgesloten in een appartement in New York. Een jaar later maakte ze de korte film THAT ONE DAY, waarin ze de crew van ‘The Skate Kitchen’ volgde. Ze raakte zo gefascineerd door de wereld van deze meiden, dat ze plannen maakte voor een lange speelfilm over de groep: SKATE KITCHEN.

  • What Is Hollywood Hiding?
    WHAT IS HOLLYWOOD HIDING? How the entertainment industry downplays the danger to kids from smoking on screen Jonathan R. Polansky Onbeyond LLC, Fairfax, California Stanton A. Glantz, PhD University of California, San Francisco _______________________________ University of California, San Francisco This publication is available at https://escholarship.org/uc/item/3pw661mg April 2020 What is Hollywood Hiding? | 1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY • The U.S. Surgeon General has concluded that exposure to onscreen tobacco imagery causes young people to smoke. The U.S. CDC has projected that this exposure will recruit more than six million new young smokers in the U.S. in this generation, of whom two million will die from tobacco-induced diseases. • More than half of U.S. top-grossing films released since 2002 include smoking,1 including 51 percent of films in 2019. The number of tobacco incidents in youth-rated films has grown by 63% since 2015. • By 2019, three-quarters of U.S. households subscribed to at least one video-in-demand (VOD) channel. Films comprise the majority of the titles offered on popular video-on-demand (VOD) services, while TV series account for the majority of programming hours they offer. • Per capita, in 2019 films were viewed fourteen times more on digital media than in theaters. Advance notice to parents • Neither the Motion Picture Association (MPA) nor TV Parental Guidelines (TVPG) treat tobacco as an explicit rating factor. The MPA only applies its bland “smoking” descriptors to 13 percent of top-grossing youth-rated films with tobacco content. • A survey of nine popular VOD services finds that three VOD services do not display film and TV ratings reasons with their video content and six other VOD services show ratings reasons only after the user selects a film or TV show and the video is rolling.

May 1, 2018/Brooklyn, NY—BAM announces the full lineup for the tenth annual BAMcinemaFest (Jun 20—Jul 1). Described as “filmgoers’ most exhilarating annual opportunity for discovery” (The Village Voice), BAMcinemaFest has evolved into a platform for both emerging and established filmmakers as well as unconventional and often overlooked films. This year’s 12-day festival presents all New York premieres and three world premieres. Gina Duncan, BAM’s Associate Vice President of Cinema explains "We are proud to present work that is compelling, defiant, and ultimately thrilling. It feels appropriate to celebrate the tenth BAMcinemaFest with a line-up of films and filmmakers whose energy and adventurousness hints at something profound taking root. I can't wait to see what it bears." Opening this year’s festival on Wednesday, June 20 is the head-spinningly surreal debut from musician-turned-filmmaker Boots Riley, Sorry to Bother You. Struggling to make ends meet in Oakland, CA, Cassius Green (Lakeith Stanfield) lands a job as a RegalView telemarketer. Realizing perfecting his “white voice” is the key to his monetary success, Green soon discovers it’s not without considerable consequences.
