For 62 years the Cork Film Festival has provided a lens on the world to the people of Cork, Ireland and the many international visitors who travel to our port city to lose themselves in flm for a week. The Cork Film Festival, which Cork City Council is honoured to part fund, never ceases to inspire us: to transport us from the mundane to the miraculous and to open our eyes to worlds that we never knew existed. It is one of the city’s most signifcant and popular arts events and remains the largest flm festival in Ireland. For many, it makes the onset of winter more bearable. So welcome to Cork, recently nominated as one of eight ideal cities in Europe for culture and creativity. And remember, the Cork Film Festival is a festival for the people Cllr. Tony Fitzgerald,Cllr. Tony Ardmhéara Chorcaí, Lord Mayor of Cork and not just flm bufs. In 1956, the founders of this festival were ambitious that the Cork Film Festival “must always be strongly infuenced by the company it keeps. The company is good.” In 2017 the company is still good. The frst flm festival in Cork was recognised by the International Federation of Film Producers Association, one of only 5 globally to be approved at their 1950 Congress in Cannes. In 2017, Cork Film Festival is one of only 40 festivals worldwide - and the only one in Ireland to have two awards with Oscars ® Accreditation. Our spark was ignited, travelling from Cannes to Cork; our infuence, nearly 65 years later, reaches from Cork to Hollywood. We look forward to welcoming you to the Festival this year. Helen Boyle Chair of the Board 2 Book now: corkflmfest.org | 021 427 1711 Information Introduction Introduction Festivals are extraordinary beasts - unique collaborations that fuse art, audience and place. They excite, enrage, engage and entertain. The 2017 Festival is bookended by two distinctive flms that couldn’t be more diferent. It’s a pleasure, and thoroughly appropriate, to open with the festive romp that is The Man Who Invented Christmas, while Alexander Payne’s sci-f road move Downsizing confrms his status as a flmmaker with rare depth and wit. In between these two titles, we present over 200 flms from 50 countries, including multiple award winners from the international festival circuit; veteran auteurs such as Michael Haneke, Takashi Miike and Mohammad Rasoulof; the likes of Clio Barnard, Sebastián Lelio and Ale Ross Perry, all gradually building impressive bodies of work; and, perhaps most signifcantly, there are plenty Fiona Clark Festival Producer and CEO of thrilling new voices with debut features, and Ana Urushadze, Daan Bakker and Deborah Haywood are among many names to look out for. A provocative documentary programme includes established non-fction flmmakers Alex Gibney, Frederick Wiseman, Brett Morgan and Eugene Jarecki, while we proudly celebrate Irish cinema with keenly anticipated flms from Pat Collins and Frank Berry standing alongside newer talents. Our archive ofering includes restorations of flms by Hitchcock, Powell and Pressburger and Clouzot, and there are 17 shorts programmes, illustrating our frm commitment to the form. We hope to encourage future audiences through our Family and School’s programmes, while we continue to provoke discussion and debate about mental health issues with our Illuminate strand. Many people and partners are instrumental in the delivery of the festival. Michael Hayden Guest Programme Director We are hugely grateful to our Principal Funder, the Arts Council, and Cork City Council, as well as all our funders, sponsors, local businesses, cultural organisations, and Festival staf and volunteers. We would like to thank them all, and especially our audiences - the flmmakers who make the work, the industry who enable us to share that work, and above all the paying public, from young people exploring the world through flm for the frst time, to the committed cinephile. All are essential in shaping a programme of fact and fction that is uniquely available in Cork, creating a truly distinctive and enjoyable festival experience. We warmly encourage you to explore this feast of flm and we look forward to welcoming you to the 62nd Cork Film Festival.

The apparent global box office decline in the last decade had been attributed to a number of factors including cyclical poor movie offerings, total costs associated with going to the cinema from admission price and snacks to parking, failure of new screen technologies to boost box office revenue and the emergence of alternative viewing methods (Silver and Mc Donnell 2007).

BBC doc-maker and journalist Louis Theroux teams up with director John Dower and double Academy Award winning producer Simon Chinn (Searching for Sugar, Man On Wire) to explore the self-mythologizing Church of Scientology. Following a long fascination with the religion and with much experience in dealing with eccentric, unpalatable and unexpected human behavior, the beguilingly unassuming Theroux won’t take no for an answer when his request to enter the Church’s headquarters is turned down. Inspired by the Church’s use of filming techniques, and aided by ex-members of the organization, Theroux uses actors to replay some incidents people claim they experienced as members in an attempt to better understand the way it operates. In a bizarre twist, it becomes clear that the Church is also making a film about Louis Theroux. Suffused with a good dose of humor and moments worthy of a Hollywood script, MY SCIENTOLOGY MOVIE is as outlandish as it is revealing.

  • 1 Small Wonder Philip Horne DOWNSIZING
    1 Small Wonder Philip Horne DOWNSIZING [February 2018, Sight & Sound] There has been a long and somewhat anxious wait among admirers of Alexander Payne’s films since Nebraska in 2013 – a bleak, beautiful, drily funny picture of the post-industrial Midwest and sad, haunted lives. Four years later Payne, who still lives in his native Omaha, has come out with a grand, astonishingly daring movie – a satirical fable, or blackly comic science fiction epic, or unexpected love story. As it goes on, there’s a serious, even tragic side to the film, but its main premise is treated with such inventiveness both visual and verbal that we get constant jolts of pleasure at the imaginative scope of its makers’ conceptions. The absurd technology that scientists concerned with ‘Human Scale and Sustainability’ and climate change develop for reducing the size of the human population – by making them five inches high – is in effect like a giant microwave: it even pings when the transformation is complete. It’s deliberately low-tech. The process, invented by idealistic Norwegians to produce a ‘self- sustainable community of the small’, is imagined being then commercialised and normalised in familiar ways by global/American capitalism, sold to punters as a time-share-like ‘heaven’ called ‘Leisureland’, which is ‘like winning the lottery every day’. This because a modest nest-egg of $152,000 when transferred (unshrunk) to its newly-tiny owner’s account in a ‘small city’ translates as the equivalent of $22,5000,000: it’s an American dream. The script is full of delicious size jokes, as downsizing becomes absorbed into idiom and things get re-scaled, so that we see ‘the first small baby ever born’.

    WMC INVESTIGATION: 10-YEAR ANALYSIS OF GENDER & OSCAR NOMINATIONS womensmediacenter.com @womensmediacntr WOMEN’S MEDIA CENTER ABOUT THE WOMEN’S MEDIA CENTER In 2005, Jane Fonda, Robin Morgan, and Gloria Steinem founded the Women’s Media Center (WMC), a progressive, nonpartisan, nonproft organization endeav- oring to raise the visibility, viability, and decision-making power of women and girls in media and thereby ensuring that their stories get told and their voices are heard. To reach those necessary goals, we strategically use an array of interconnected channels and platforms to transform not only the media landscape but also a cul- ture in which women’s and girls’ voices, stories, experiences, and images are nei- ther suffciently amplifed nor placed on par with the voices, stories, experiences, and images of men and boys. Our strategic tools include monitoring the media; commissioning and conducting research; and undertaking other special initiatives to spotlight gender and racial bias in news coverage, entertainment flm and television, social media, and other key sectors. Our publications include the book “Unspinning the Spin: The Women’s Media Center Guide to Fair and Accurate Language”; “The Women’s Media Center’s Media Guide to Gender Neutral Coverage of Women Candidates + Politicians”; “The Women’s Media Center Media Guide to Covering Reproductive Issues”; “WMC Media Watch: The Gender Gap in Coverage of Reproductive Issues”; “Writing Rape: How U.S. Media Cover Campus Rape and Sexual Assault”; “WMC Investigation: 10-Year Review of Gender & Emmy Nominations”; and the Women’s Media Center’s annual WMC Status of Women in the U.S.

Her yeni sayıda yazarlarımızın ilgi alanlarının katkısıyla bu zengin dünyadaki her araştırma, her keşif bir diğer okumayı da besliyor çoğu zaman. Her sayıda olduğu gibi Sekans Sinema Kültürü Dergisi e-9’da da bu amaçla çalışmalara başlanmış, içeriğin ana hatları belirlenmişti. Sinemamızdan ve dünya sinemasından incelemeler, bir yönetmen söyleşisi, belgesel, akım, tür, anısına gibi bölümler, 50 yaşında bir film, bir ülke sinemasını ele alan dosya ile bu sayıda da farklı coğrafyalara, tarihlere, yönetmenlere, ülkelere ve düşüncelere yolculuk etmek için yola çıkılmıştı. Tüm bu çalışmaları okuyucuya ulaştırmanın yoğun çabası içindeyken sinema dünyasından kötü bir haber geldi. İtalyan yönetmen Bernardo Bertolucci, çokça tartışılmış, üzerine defalarca yazılmış, çizilmiş filmlerini ardında bırakarak bu dünyaya gözlerini kapamıştı.
