  • Yugoslav Cinema
    Egemia, 2018; 3: 31-49 31 TRANSFORMATION OF TRAUMATIC CHARACTERS IN POST- YUGOSLAV CINEMA Ahmet Ender UYSAL* ABSTRACT This study examines the changes Yugoslav cinema realized from the 1980s to the 2000s, and seeks to see the contributions of three important post-Yugoslav directors to the transformation of the cinema characters. The post-Yugoslav states emerged after the disintegration of Yugoslavia, and they underwent political and cultural changes as a result of the collapse of the former Yugoslav socialism and the post-civil war. Post- Yugoslav cinema, which took its share from these changes, experienced crises of national identity and modernization. Examining these changes in cinema with cinematic characters is also very important in terms of visualizing cultural and economic changes in a cinematic sense. The real problem here is where the boundary of this change will be drawn. This is because, although the characters in post-Yugoslavian cinema have been transformed, there is still some cinematic tradition that continues today. Post-Yugoslav cinema will therefore be considered within the period of 1980s. Keywords: Post-Yugoslav cinema, trauma, cinematic characters * Arş. Gör., Yüzüncü Yıl Üniversitesi Güzel Sanatlar Fakültesi, Sinema-Televizyon Bölümü / VAN E-posta: [email protected] Makale Gönderim Tarihi: 14.06.2018 – Makale Kabul Tarihi: 16.10.2018 32 Egemia, 2018; 3: 31-49 INTRODUCTION Often, the concept of post-Yugoslavian cinema offers curative effects on rejection of failure and the search for hope, and becomes a common stake of new countries emerging after the dissolution of the former Yugoslavia, which is increasingly adopted in the field of film studies (Šprah, 2015: 184).

  • EMIR KUSTURICA & the NO SMOKING ORCHESTRA Live SPETTACOLO FUORI ABBONAMENTO
    TEATRO SAVOIA CAMPOBASSO Inaugurazione STAGIONE 2017-2018 DOMENICA 26 NOVEMBRE ore 21.00 EMIR KUSTURICA & THE NO SMOKING ORCHESTRA live SPETTACOLO FUORI ABBONAMENTO Il Molise ospita per la prima volta Emir Kusturica, regista, attore, musicista e sceneggiatore serbo, che accompagnato dalla No Smoking Orchestra sancirà l’avvio ufficiale delle attività del Teatro Savoia a Campobasso. Un preludio straordinario in vista della presentazione della nuova stagione teatrale organizzata dalla Fondazione Molise Cultura e promossa dalla Regione Molise. Fresco della candidatura alla 73ª Mostra internazionale d'arte cinematografica di Venezia con il suo “On the milky road” (Lungo la Via Lattea), Emir Kusturica è protagonista del film insieme a Monica Bellucci, curando anche la regia e la colonna sonora con la sua No Smoking Orchestra, gruppo nato a Sarajevo nel 1980 nel quale, oltre a curare tutta la parte scenografica dei concerti, canta e suona la chitarra elettrica. Come regista esordisce nel 1981 con “Ti ricordi di Dolly Bell?”, che conquista il Leone d'oro per la Migliore opera prima alla Mostra del cinema di Venezia. Nel 1985, con “Papà...è in viaggio d'affari”, si aggiudica la Palma d'oro al Festival di Cannes. Nel 1989 dirige “Il tempo dei gitani” che vince il Gran Premio della regia a Cannes. Nel 1992 dirige il suo primo e unico film americano, “Arizona Dream”. Nel 1995 è autore di “Underground”, premiato con la Palma d'oro a Cannes. Con il famoso “Gatto nero, gatto bianco” vince, nel 1998, un Leone d'Argento alla Mostra del cinema di Venezia. Il 2004 è l'anno di “La vita è un miracolo”, un adattamento balcanico della storia di Romeo e Giulietta girato sulle montagne di Mokra Gora.

Sortie France : 16/10/1985 Durée : 135 min Palme d'or, Cannes 1985 « Dans ce film, je n'ai pas voulu être ni le juge, ni l'interprète de l'Histoire. J'ai voulu montrer le drame d'un garçon de six ans dont le père était victime d'une période historique pendant laquelle les personnes appartenant au service de sécurité yougoslave qui résistaient au stalinisme ont commis , elles-même des fautes... » Critique et Commentaires Palme d'or au festival de Cannes 1985, Papa est en voyage d'affaires consacre un jeune réalisateur pétri de talent. [...] Papa est en voyage d'affaires, s'il utilise avec force et intelligence la toile de fond des années cinquante, n'est pas une reconstitution historique ou une analyse politique. Il s'agit beaucoup plus d'une comédie dramatique où la truculence, la gaieté, l'ironie viennent continuellement en contrepoint d'une émotion de tous les instants. Au centre donc le petit Malik qui assiste à toute une série d'événements qui le dépasse. Les tumultueuses années cinquante se reflètent dans ses yeux rieurs et organisent son quotidien. Témoin des moments importants de la vie de sa famille (les séparations arbitraires, les scènes de ménage...) il découvre le monde des adultes mais ressent aussi ses premières émotions (la circoncision, le premier amour...).

    ON THE MILKY ROAD – AŞK VE SAVAŞ 26 MAYIS’TA SİNEMALARDA! Yazan ve Yöneten Emir Kusturica Bosna Savaşı yılları ve bahar... Bir sütçü, her sabah eşeği üzerinde vızıldayan mermiler arasında cepheye süt taşırken aydınlık ve huzurlu bir yaşamın hayallerini kurmaktadır. Köye gelen gizemli bir İtalyan kadına aşık olmasıyla alt üst olan hayatı, onu tutku dolu, yasaklı bir ilişkiye sürükler. Rüya gibi ve bir o kadar da tehlikeli bir aşka yelken açan ikiliyi ne savaş ne de kader durdurabilecek gibidir... Yönetmen: Emir Kusturica Oyuncular: Emir Kusturica, Monica Bellucci Tür: Dram, Savaş Süre: 125 dk Vizyon Tarihi: 26 Mayıs 2017 Fragmanı izlemek için: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K3_Z6VzVSiI Görselleri İnidrmek için: http://baskasinema.com/upload/basin/otmr.zip Yönetmenin Bakışı... Bu film ile 27 yaşıma, Venedik’teki toy günlerime dönüyorum. Sinema öyle bir şey ki, her seferinde sıfırdan başlıyorsunuz ve her seferinde aslında hiçbir şey bilmediğinizi farkediyorsunuz. İlk filmim ‘Dolly Bell’i Anımsıyor musun?’daki gibi keşfetmem gereken çok fazla şey olduğu gibi, ‘Aşk ve Savaş’ta da keşfedeceğim çok şey olduğu için korkuyordum. Modern bir peri masalı yönettim; bu bana en az diğer filmlerim kadar heyecan verdi. Güzelliği, çarpıcılığı ve insana has dünyaları yeniden keşfettim. Aşk ve Savaş, kendi hayatımın pek çok döneminden ilham aldı. Filmin satır aralarında kendi hayatıma odaklandım. Eğer kendimi geçmiş ve şimdiki zaman ile kıyaslarsam, gittikçe özüme döndüğümü görüyorum. Bu kez anlatım konusunda son derece düz davrandım ve her türlü ifademde becerimi sadelikten yana kullandım. Aşk ve Savaş’ın çekimleri sırasında hayatım filmin etrafında döndü. İnsanın doğayla ilişkisini ve hayat hakkındaki duygularını felsefi bir zemine oturtmaya çalıştım.
