:PEK?@8:CFJ< =I8EB8M 9I@KK8EP>I8M CIAI>CARPENTER B8ID8=FC 2011 marks our 42nd year as a producer, distributor and sponsor of some of the most unique documentary films about people and culture available today. We have invested in our original collections so that classic films shot 60 or more years ago in 16mm are still accessible on DVD or streaming video via the web. In addition to !e Odyssey Series, for the first time on DVD is the film work of Richard Broadman, an uncompromising, independent film- maker whose work has shed light on important political and social issues for more than three decades. Broadman died at the age of 53 in January 2000. His work has found an appropriate home here along- side that of two other prominent film pioneers recently added to DER’s collection: George Stoney and Jorge Prelorán. DER’s approach to distribution continues to provide opportunities for in-depth research not only into the subject ma!er of our films, but into the very art and act of filmmaking and documentation. Even films that stir controversy open up exciting possibilities for self- examination and change. Secrets of the Tribe, Brazilian filmmaker José Padilha’s disturbing look at the nature and practice of anthropology is just such a film and we look forward to the discussions it will generate in the academic community. DER continues to present provocative films that we hope will provide some answers but will also ask new questions to be addressed by future generations. :PEK?@8:CFJ< Executive Director 1 *ANTHROPOLOGY & SOCIOLOGY ARE NOT SUBJECT INDEX INCLUDED, AS MOST OF OUR TITLES FALL UNDER THESE CATEGORIES.

In the 1960s and '70s, anthropologists filed into the Amazon Basin to observe this “virgin” society. Thirty years later, the events surrounding this infiltration have become a scandalous tale of academic ethics and infighting. Heated disputes on the origins of violence and war and the accuracy of data gathering descend into allegations of sexual and medical violation. Allowing professors accused of heinous activities to defend themselves, and the Yanomamo to present their side of the story, this riveting excavation deconstructs anthropology's colonial legacy and challenges our society's myths of objectivity and the very notion of “the other.” AfjGX[`c_X Zfcfi#0+d`e#)'('#)0, JLE;8E:<=@CD= COLLECTED FILMS OF JORGE PRELORÁN A cinematic icon in his native Argentina, Jorge Prelorán was a For the first time on DVD and pioneer in the field of ethnographic documentary film and a available in the US, these first professor emeritus at UCLA.
