Teenage maths prodigy Nathan (Asa Butterfield) struggles when it comes to building relationships with other people, not least with his mother, Julie (Sally Hawkins). In a world difficult to comprehend, he finds comfort in numbers. And when Nathan is taken under the wing of unconventional and anarchic teacher, Mr. Humphreys (Rafe Spall), the pair forge an unusual friendship. Eventually, Nathan’s talents win him a place on the UK National team at the International Mathematics Olympiad (IMO) and the team travel to a training camp in Taiwan, under the supervision of squad leader Richard (Eddie Marsan). In unfamiliar surroundings, Nathan is confronted by a series of unexpected challenges — not least the unfamiliar feelings he begins to experience for his Chinese counterpart, the beautiful Zhang Mei (Jo Yang), feelings that develop when the young mathematicians return to England for the IMO, held at Trinity College, Cambridge. From suburban England to bustling Taipei and back again, this original and heart-warming film tracks the funny and complex relationships that Nathan builds, as he is confronted by the irrational nature of love. -

Publication Date: September 4, 2018 Media Contact: Diane Levinson, Publicity [email protected] 212.354.8840 x248 The Endings Photographic Stories of Love, Loss, Heartbreak, and Beginning Again By Caitlin Cronenberg and Jessica Ennis • Foreword by Mary Harron 11 x 8 in, 136pp, Hardcover, Photographs throughout ISBN 978‐1‐4521‐5568‐5, $29.95 Featuring some of today’s most celebrated actresses, including Julianne Moore, Alison Pill, and Imogen Poots, the photographic vignettes in The Endings capture female characters in the throes of emotional transformation. Photographer Caitlin Cronenberg and art director Jessica Ennis created stories of heartbreak, relationship endings, and new beginnings—fictional but often inspired by real life—and set out to convey the raw emotions that are exposed in these most vulnerable states. Cronenberg and Ennis collaborated with each actress to develop a character, build the world she inhabits, and then photograph her as she lived the role before the camera. Patricia Clarkson depicts a woman meeting her younger lover in the campus library—even though they both know the relationship has been over since before it even began. Juno Temple portrays a broken‐hearted woman who engages in reckless and self‐destructive behavior to numb the sadness she feels. Keira Knightley ritualistically cleanses herself and her home after the death of her great love. Also featured are Jennifer Jason Leigh, Danielle Brooks, Tessa Thompson, Noomi Rapace, and many more. These intimate images combine the lush beauty and rich details of fashion photographs with the drama and narrative energy of film stills. Telling stories of sadness, loneliness, anger, relief, rebirth, freedom, and happiness, they are about relationship endings, but they are also about beginnings. -

2019.11.29 WDR Bigband Funkhausorchester Und
PRESSEMITTEILUNG WDR Big Band & WDR Funkhausorchester und Chilly Gonzales zu Gast bei den Ruhrfestspielen 2020 Der Vorverkauf für die zwei hochkarätigen Musik-Acts im Ruhrfestspielhaus läuft. Wenn das WDR Funkhausorchester auf eine der weltbesten Big Bands, die WDR Big Band, trifft, ist musikalisch plötzlich alles möglich. Wenn dann auch noch der Komponist und Trompeter Markus Stockhausen seine Finger mit im Spiel hat, gibt es keine Genregrenzen mehr. Der WDR Jazz-Preisträger von 2005 fühlt sich nicht nur im Jazz, sondern auch in der zeitgenössischen und klassischen Musik, sowie im Dialog mit anderen Musikkulturen heimisch. Der Sohn des berühmten Komponisten Karlheinz Stockhausen, mit dem er viele Jahre auch künstlerisch erfolgreich zusammenarbeitete, zählt damit zu den vielseitigsten Künstler*innen der Musikszene Nordrhein-Westfalens. Sein umfangreiches Schaffen ist auf über 90 CD- Einspielungen dokumentiert. Einst als Auftragskomposition der Camerata Bern und des Swiss Jazz Orchestra an Stockhausen herangetragen, ist der 2020 im Ruhrfestspielhaus präsentierte Abend mit dem Titel „Tanzendes Licht“ eine Hommage an das Werk Paul Klees. Nachdem der Musiker den direkten Bezug zu Klees Bildern als unpassend empfand, sah er selbst ein Bild vor seinem inneren Auge, das er vertonen wollte – die meisten Menschen kennen es: man steht an einem großen Gewässer, einem See, oder am Meer, die Sonne senkt sich und man sieht eine Lichtstraße auf dem Wasser: abertausende kleine tanzende Lichtfunken. Dieses Bild hat für Stockhausen etwas von der ewigen Seelenwanderung, die Funken entstehen und sind blitzartig wieder verschwunden. Aber alle tanzenden Funken zusammen sind das Leben, voll impulsiver Kraft. Und so vertonte Markus Stockhausen für diesen Abend ein Meer von abertausenden Lichtfunken. -
Sense8 Roundtable
Moya Bailey, micha cárdenas, Laura Horak, Lokeilani Kaimana, Cáel M. Keegan, Geneveive Newman, Roxanne Samer, and Raffi Sarkissian Sense8 Roundtable Abstract In “Sense8: A Roundtable,” eight scholars, myself included, think through key questions regarding one of today’s most impressive trans-produced mainstream media productions, Lana and Lilly Wachowski’s Netflix series Sense8, which has yet to receive substantive scholarly attention. We analyze how Sense8 both follows and breaks from the Wachowskis’ prior approach to narrative; offers a distinctly trans* engagement with the histories of cinematic and televisual genres; often relies on western colonial conceptions for its global imagination and marginalizes characters of color; and theorizes contemporary media spectatorship in its appeal to affect and eroticism. We do so believing Sense8 to be an important cultural interlocutor, not only with regard to the exploration of transgender representation but also questions of sexuality, race, and capital in the global present. However, we also share a conviction that the series’ potentiality still leaves substantial room for growth. We take a critical approach to our collective analysis, seeing in the series a glimmer of the kind of global utopian envisioning very much needed in our ceaselessly dystopian present. The first season of J. Michael Straczynski and was the prime decree of those reviewers who were Lana and Lilly Wachowski’s Sense8 was released looking to witness a similar “seamless marriage on Netflix on June 5, 2015. The series’ critical of style and substance.”2 Those reviewers who did reception was mixed. Many found Sense8—which appreciate Sense8 were those who saw the series as tells the story of eight individuals from across purposefully demanding the labor of an attentive the globe, who, having recently been “birthed” by audience.
