We are publishing the report due to the extensive international attention and many questions our work has attracted. I often get all the praise for work that is based on far more than just my decision to really start taking the gender equality goal seriously – a decision I made when I first started at the Swedish Film Institute in October 2011. Today, six years later, it is clear that it has been possible to achieve a gender equal funding system without quotas, and with higher quality as a result. Achieving this has in part been down to my resolve as a leader, but also very much to the hard work of everyone else involved. Sweden is privileged to be a rich nation, without wars in recent centuries, and with a stable majority government for many years. This has favoured the gender equality work as society at large has become increasingly gender equal. Previous governments , industry players, my CEO predecessors and the staff at the Film Institute too have all very much helped to make Swedish film production what it is today. What has been added since 2011 are concrete goals and ambitions, along with clear communication. Sweden cannot stand as a model for other countries; those countries must put their own work in. Even so, we do believe that the working method used at the Swedish Film Institute can spread knowledge and understanding, partly by describing our gender equality work before 2011, and also by outlining what we have done since to achieve our goals. We have yet to achieve film production that fully sees beyond gender, ethnicity, LGBTQ and varying levels of able-bodiedness. We need to broaden representation, both behind and in front of the cameras. We have put together a new action plan for our ongoing efforts, which includes the concrete goal of spreading knowledge. This is why we have produced this report, the first of many. Our hope is that knowledge will lead us to a film industry that’s sustainable in the long term, where everybody can work on equal terms. Anna Serner CEO, Swedish Film Institute 4 Foreword Anna Wahl is a Professor and Vice President at KTH, the Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm. She has an MBA from the Stockholm School of Economics, and in 1992 defended her doctoral thesis there on “Gender Structures in Organizations – career development for women with MBA and MSc degrees”. In 2008 Wahl was made a Professor of Gender, Organization and Management at the KTH’s Department of Industrial Economics and Management. Her research areas are organization and leadership, with a particular focus on gender and feminist theory. She has taken part in several projects in association with the Swedish Film Institute, and is an important resource when it comes to knowledge of the film industry and its organization from a gender perspective. There are various pieces of good advice that are generally given to organizations or sectors that want to strive for greater gender equality. One of these is about discussing which argument should be communicated through the organization/sector to explain why gender equality is a good thing in this particular context. There are several arguments that can be used to establish legitimacy and participation, such as democracy, fairness, competence, quality, profitability, development, or a good working environment. Different arguments are used in different sectors. Sometimes the argument has not been formally formulated, and this can cause uncertainty and a resistance to change. Sometimes the argument is altered, because the change process has developed since it was first formulated. In the film industry, as in

  • Tendències Del Cinema Suec Contemporani
    ‘No more winters’ Tendències del cinema suec contemporani Manuel Garín / Carles Roche Oh Mort, com s’entén això? He de ballar i ni tan sols sé caminar. (Dança de la Mort escandinava, s. XIV) Malgrat la vitalitat saludable de la cinematografia sueca a la primera dècada del segle XXI, és probable que per al cinema suec l’esdeveniment cinematogràfic per excel·lència en aquest període sigui una mort: la desaparició, el 2007, d’un gegant anomenat Ingmar Bergman. Durant dècades, Bergman ha estat una de les capitals cinematogràfiques d’Europa. I, encara que el cinema suec contemporani és molt més que un cinema simplement postbergmanià (ja que les seves referències, registres, preocupacions i ambicions són un clar exemple de mirada cap al futur, amb els ulls posats més enllà de la cinefília, amb preocupacions molt diverses i punts de mira àmpliament diversificats), el comiat de Bergman el 2003, amb Sarabande, va deixar el cinema suec amb només una de les grans figures de la modernitat clàssica en actiu, la de Jan Troell (l’altre portaveu del classicisme suec, Bo Widerberg, havia desaparegut el 1997) 1. 1 Usar Bergman com a eix sobre el que iniciar el traçat del mapa del cinema suec pot semblar un reduccionisme, però la veritat és que sovint el cinema suec d’avui sembla habitat per aquesta presència, detectable a cada pas, sigui per afinitats voluntàries o latents o per un calculat allunyament de les seves maneres i preocupacions. Això és especialment cert pel que fa al cinema d’autor, la qual cosa no obsta perquè el cinema suec, en general, hagi trobat una molt particular alquímia a l’hora de treballar amb l’herència bergmaniana dins de corrents comuns al cinema contemporani de tot el món, per exemple en l’ampli espectre de gammes tonals amb què aborda els enllaços entre la ficció i el documental, un dels aspectes més suggeridors del neocinema suec del XXI.

  • Scandinavië in Beeld En Geluid
    Themalijst Scandinavië in beeld en geluid De Scandinavische cinema Meer en meer mensen raken in de ban van Scandinavische films. En wie kan ze ongelijk geven. Met filmlanden zoals Zweden en Denemarken die op grote schaal veel internationale successen weten te produceren, heb je al voor dagen aan uitstekend film vermaak. Maar ook Noorwegen en Finland moeten niet worden vergeten. Wellicht zijn de Noorse en Finse films minder toegankelijk, wat stijver en grauwer, maar ook deze landen hebben een paar pareltjes weten te creëren. Zweden Ernst Ingmar Bergman (Uppsala, 14 juli 1918 – Fårö, 30 juli 2007). Ingmar Bergman werd in 1918 geboren als zoon van een Luthers predikant. De kleine Ingmar was zwak en vaak ziek. Net zoals zijn oudere broer rebelleerde thuis kregen, een jeugd die hij later getrouw zou reconstrueren in Fanny en Alexander (1982). Voor Ingmar betekende die rebellie dat hij alleen maar zijn humaniora afmaakte. Aan de universiteit verzeilde hij immers al snel bij het studententheater, een passie die hij tijdens de Tweede Wereldoorlog voortzette Bergmans werk in het theater ook de deuren openen voor een filmcarrière toen zijn scenario Kwelling (Hets, 1942) werd verfilmd door Alf Sjöberg. Toch zou het, het succes van Zomer met Monika (1953) niet te na gesproken, tot 1955 duren vooraleer Bergman internationaal met Glimlach van een Zomernacht doorbrak. Hij had toen al dertien films op zijn actief. In Amerika verkreeg hij godenstatus met Het Zevende Zegel (1957), dat werd binnengehaald als de eerste echt existentiële film. Daarna volgden de gouden jaren met de grote klassiekers: De Maagdenbron (1960), In een donkere spiegel (1961), De Avondmaalgasten (1963), Persona (1966), Het Uur van de Wolf (1967) en Schaamte (1968), om slechts de belangrijkste te noemen.

  • Son Kuşak Isveç Sinemasi
    ---- DOSYA ---- SON KUŞAK İSVEÇ SİNEMASI İsveç film endüstrisi, Ingmar Bergman gibi ustaların uluslararası başarılarının uzun yıllar keyfini çıkardı. Günümüzün yeni kuşak yönetmenleri ise kendi markalarını oluşturmaktalar. Küçük bağımsız filmlerden iyi kurgulanmış Hollywood yapımlarına kadar her şeyin üretildiği, izleyicilerin beğenisini kazanan filmlerle hem ulusal hem de uluslararası alanda ödüller kazanmaktalar. Onlar yeni kuşak bir oyuncu grubu da eşlik etmekte. Şimdi onların sinema yolculuklarına kısa bakışlar atalım. Çağdaş İsveçli Yönetmenler Ruben Östlund kayak sporlarını konu edinen ilk filmleriyle ilgi çeken yazar ve yönetmen. İlk uzun metrajlı filmini 2004’te çekmiştir ve o günden bu yana iki ödül kazandığı kurgu kısa ve uzun metrajlı filmler yapmıştır. Oyun (Play, 2011) Tokyo Film Festivali ve Cannes Coup de Coeur’de En İyi Yönetmen ödülüyle birlikte Nordic Council Film Prize ödülünü kazanmıştır. Son prodüksiyonlarından biri olan SEKANS Sinema Kültürü Dergisi Aralık 2018 | Sayı e9 : 227-233 Turist (Force Majeure, 2014) ile, 2014 Cannes Film Festivali'nin “Belirli Bir Bakış” bölümünde Jüri Ödülü’nü; hemen ardından, Kare (The Square, 2017) adlı yapımıyla da 2017 Cannes Film Festivali’nde “Altın Palmiye” ödülünü kazanmıştır. Ruben Östlund’un Turist filminden bir kare. Kayak tatilinde bir aile krizine dönüşen çığ düşme sahnesi. Lisa Langseth seks, sınıf ve iktidar temalarıyla ilgilenen keskin bir yönetmen. Kültür dünyasındaki güç ilişkilerini anlatan ilk filmi Sevilen (Pure, 2010), yükselen yıldız Alicia Vikander’in kariyerinin başlangıcı oldu. Langseth ve Vikander, Otel (Hotell, 2013) için yeniden bir araya geldi. 228 Lukas Moodysson 1998’de Sev Beni (Show Me Love, 1998) filmiyle çıkış yaptı. Birlikte (Together, 2000), Daima Lilya (Lilya 4-ever, 2002) ve Gael Garcia Bernal ile Michelle Williams’ın başrollerini paylaştığı Mamut (Mammoth, 2009) gibi ses getiren filmler yönetti.
