* NEW PROJECT ANNOUNCEMENT * 13th Gen is co-producing NARROW PATH TO HAPPINESS, a feature documentary that tells the love story of Gergo and Lenard - a young gay Romani couple from a remote village in Hungary who have a dream so absurd that it seems impossible: making a musical film based on their lives.

Brought to you by Makabor Studio, the film is directed by Kata Olah and produced by Bori Csukás, a fabulous mother-daughter team. 

For context, this beautiful queer film has been made against all odds as the far-right Hungarian government has become increasingly authoritarian and hostile towards LGBTQ+ people. Not surprisingly, no one in Hungary will fund this project. Full stop. So, we are activating our networks in the USA and elsewhere to help get this film finished and out into the world in 2023! ❤️🏳️‍🌈🎬

We're working with The Center for Independent Documentary on our U.S. fundraising efforts, so all donations are tax-deductible.

NOTE: This film has already done extremely well at a number of top-tier non-fiction markets and co-pro/pitch events, including Hot Docs Deal Makers, and won prizes at both Thessaloniki International Film Festival's Agora Doc Market and When East Meets West in Trieste.

The film Under the Sky of Damascus by exiled Syrian filmmakers Heba Khaled, Talal Derki and Ali Wajeeh won the International Competition Golden Alexander at the 25th Thessaloniki International Documentary Festival, TiDF.

Under the Sky of Damascus follows five young Syrian women, Farah, Eliana, Inana, Souhir, and Grace, who want to produce a play based on individual women’s stories.

They record stories from actresses to factory workers to stay-at-home mothers; what emerges are stories of abuse, blackmail, and even imprisonment at the hands of husbands, brothers, fathers, employers and powerful officials who use their patriarchal power to keep them trapped without access to justice.

The film has secured a place in the selection shortlist for the Academy Award for Best Documentary Feature Film.

The awards ceremony took place under the shadow of the deadly train accident on February 28 that claimed the lives of 57 people. The opening and closing ceremonies and all festival events were canceled as a sign of respect for the victims.

“In these difficult moments we experience, wishing to provide the audience with the chance to discover Greek films that touch upon issues and concerns shared by all of us, we extend the time window for the online screenings of the films taking part in the sections Platform and From screen to Screen (online.filmfestival.gr),” a press release issued by the TiDF said.

The Silver Alexander, which is accompanied by a 5,000-euro cash prize, went to the documentary Who I Am Not by Tünde Skovrán, which is about a South African beauty queen who plunges into an identity crisis after finding out she is intersex.  A Special Mention was bestowed on Narrow Path to Happiness by Kata Oláh, a film about a gay gypsy couple living in Hungary.

TiDF was one of the first film festivals to host a Podcast Competition section, exploring the affinities of this new genre with cinema. The Best Podcast Award, accompanied by a 2,000-euro cash prize, was won by From a Wonder to a Trauma by Constantinos Vrettos, about a mother who lost her child.

Il #Canada 🇨🇦 ha scelto come proprio rappresentante per gli #Oscar2023 per la categoria #BestInternationalFilm il documentario animato #EternalSpring di #JasonLoftus. TRAMA: Nel marzo 2002, una stazione televisiva in Cina viene occupata da membri del gruppo Falun Gong. Il loro obiettivo è contrastare la narrativa del governo sulla loro pratica repressiva. In seguito, le incursioni della polizia travolgono la città di Changchun e l'illustratore di fumetti Daxiong è costretto a fuggire in Nord America. Combinando filmati odierni con animazioni 3D ispirate all'arte di Daxiong, Eternal Spring dà vita a una testimonianza storica sulle strazianti persecuzioni del regime cinese. TRAILER: https://youtu.be/H_CM3hj1dik AWARDS: ha vinto 2 premi all' Hot Docs Canadian International Documentary Festivalun tra cui l'Audience Award, il Supreme Jury Award al Melbourne Documentary Film Festival, il Premio della Giuria al San Francisco Docfest, 2 premi al Thessaloniki Documentary Film Festival tra cui miglior film. È la quarta volta dal 1971 che il Canada presenta un film in una lingua diversa da quella ufficiale francese. Infatti questo doc animato è in mandarino. Lo scorso anno fu scelto Les oiseaux ivres di Ivan Grbovic che però non ottenne la candidatura. Nella storia degli Oscar il Canada ha conquistato 7 nomination, vincendo l’ambita statuetta una sola volta nel 2004 con il film Le invasioni barbariche di Denys Arcand. 3 volte è riuscito ad entrare nella short-list dei semifinalisti: nel 2008 con L'età barbarica di Denys Arcand, nel 2009 con Ce qu'il faut pour vivre di Benoît Pilon e nel 2017 con Juste la fin du monde di Xavier Dolan. #OscarsSubmission #95rdOscars #95rdAcademyAwards #Oscars2023 #InternationalFeatureFilm https://www.instagram.com/p/ChrNwibD--G/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Ψωμί και μια κουβέρτα / Bread and a Blanket (documentary, 38', 2020)

Δευτέρα 13 Δεκέμβρη του 1943, τα Καλάβρυτα πυρπολούνται από τον κατοχικό στρατό της Ναζιστικής Γερμανίας ενώ παράλληλα εκτελούνται όλοι οι άνδρες και οι έφηβοι του χωριού. Τρεις άνδρες που έζησαν τα γεγονότα ως παιδιά κλεισμένα στο Δημοτικό Σχολείο Καλαβρύτων με τα υπόλοιπα γυναικόπαιδα, διηγούνται την τραυματική αυτή εμπειρία.

It's Monday, the 13th of December in 1943, the small town of Kalavryta is set on fire by the occupation army of Nazi Germany while the entire male population is being gathered on a nearby hill and shot dead. This war crime will go down in history, along with the massacre of Acqui Division, as the largest mass killing in Greece during WWII. Three men, who witnessed these events as kids, locked up with the rest women, children and elderly people in Kalavryta's primary school, recall this traumatic experience.

New Post has been published on http://www.tempi-dispari.it/2020/06/01/sqizo-il-film-doc-su-louis-wolfson-in-prima-assoluta-al-biografilm-festival/

SQIZO, il film-doc su Louis Wolfson, in prima assoluta al Biografilm Festival

Sarà presentato in prima mondiale alla sedicesima edizione del Biografilm Festival (5-15 giugno 2020) in Concorso nella sezione “Biografilm Italia”, Sqizo, l’opera prima di Duccio Fabbri, attivo da molti anni come regista e aiuto regista tra l’Italia e gli Stati Uniti. 

Il film sarà trasmesso attraverso la piattaforma www.mymovies.it sabato 6 giugno dalle 21 (disponibile per un numero limitato di spettatori, con prenotazione già dal primo giugno).

Sqizo racconta la storia di Louis Wolfson, scrittore del Bronx che ha lottato per tutta la vita contro le definizioni correnti di malattia mentale, fortuna e linguaggio. Diagnosticato schizofrenico in adolescenza, ha ripudiato la lingua madre in favore di un idioma del tutto personale.

Autore cult dell’editore Gallimard nella Parigi degli anni Settanta, nonostante la notorietà è rimasto un perfetto sconosciuto negli Stati Uniti, continuando a vivere come homeless.

Giocatore d’azzardo incallito e outsider assoluto, in età matura si è trasferito a Porto Rico, dove la sua fortuna è cambiata di colpo e dove l’autore del film lo ha rintracciato: a 89 anni vive ancora solo e sospeso tra due mondi, quello del silenzio e quello della parola.

Il regista Duccio Fabbri dichiara: “Quando ho saputo che era ancora vivo, ho sentito il dovere di raccogliere la sua testimonianza. Un rapporto nato sotto il segno della diffidenza – mi credeva un possibile agente segreto italiano! – e culminato, anni dopo, in amicizia. Penso che la vita e le azioni di Wolfson siano estreme ed esemplari.

I suoi atti (come il rifiuto della lingua madre, il disprezzo per la psichiatria, il rifiuto delle più elementari istituzioni sociali) possono essere interpretati come gesti politici: forme di resistenza e sopravvivenza che ci mettono di fronte ad un nuovo punto di vista sul mondo”.

Con l’anteprima mondiale del film si conclude un lavoro durato dieci anni, costruito attraverso una lunga e complessa relazione capace di rendere finalmente visibile la vita avvolta nella leggenda di uno scrittore unico nel suo genere, che ha affascinato intellettuali come Jean Paul Sartre e Simone de Beauvoir, Gilles Deleuze, Jacques Lacan, Raymond Queneau e ispirato scrittori come Jean-Marie Gustave Le Clézio e Paul Auster (del quale il film raccoglie la testimonianza). 

Alla Epsifilm, società americana del regista che ha avviato il progetto, si è affiancata tre anni fa la startup produttiva FilmAffair, che ha lavorato alle strategie editoriali e produttive del film, partecipando a numerosi mercati internazionali (DokLeipzig co-production meetings, HotDocs co-production meetings, Thessaloniki Agora Works in Progress) e ottenendo il premio come miglior progetto al BioToB 2017.

Decisivi, per la realizzazione del film, la fiducia e il sostegno di Rai Cinema e del MiBACT e l’apporto di un distributore internazionale esperto come Cinephil. 

DUCCIO FABBRI è attivo come aiuto regista e regista negli Stati Uniti e in Italia. Tra gli altri Duccio ha lavorato con Marco Bechis, Sara Colangelo, Paul Dano, Andrew Dosunmu, Rashid Johnson, Ken Loach, Salvatore Mereu, Crystal Moselle e Josh e Benny Safdie. SQIZO è la sua opera prima. 

FILMAFFAIR nasce dall’incontro tra professionalità provenienti da percorsi contigui e complementari, con l’obiettivo di concentrare la propria attività attorno allo sviluppo editoriale e produttivo del cinema documentario e delle diverse forme di non fiction, compresi i suoi possibili sviluppi interattivi, trans-mediali, museali, attraverso una costante ricerca formale e narrativa.

Il team, composto da Valeria Adilardi, Luca Ricciardi, Laura Romano, Mauro Vicentini, ha una pluriennale esperienza nello sviluppo, produzione, distribuzione e post-produzione, si è strutturato nel 2015 a partire dalla collaborazione al festival Visioni Fuori Raccordo dedicato al cinema del reale e si è costituito in società agli inizi del 2018.

Il primo documentario prodotto, NORMAL, di Adele Tulli, vincitore del prestigioso Eurimages Lab a Karlovy Vary nel 2018, ha avuto la sua prima internazionale a Berlinale Panorama nel 2019 e ha partecipato a numerosi festival italiani ed internazionali, vincendo diversi premi (CPH:DOX, Salonicco FF, Sarajevo FF, Lovers FF, Torino; Festival des Libertés, Belgio, tra gli altri). È stato distribuito in Italia, Germania, Inghilterra, Grecia, Lituania.  SQIZO è la nuova produzione di FilmAffair.

Film Friday: 5 movie selections of the week!

The movies in this week's Film Friday mix genres like science fiction, action comedy, thrill, and adventure drama comedy. Get ready to make your weekend worthwhile by watching some of the best movies that WhatsOn editors have chosen for you. 1. Amsterdam The 2022 period comedy-thriller movie Amsterdam was written, produced, and directed by David O. Russell. The international cast, which includes Chris Rock, Anya Taylor-Joy, Zoe Saldana, Mike Myers, Michael Shannon, Timothy Olyphant, Andrea Riseborough, Taylor Swift, and others, is led by Christian Bale, Margot Robbie, and John David Washington. The plot centers on three friends—a doctor, a nurse, and a lawyer—who are implicated in the enigmatic death of a retired U.S. general and get caught up in the Business Plot, a 1933 political conspiracy in the United States. On October 7, 2022, it was made available in the US by 20th Century Studios. https://youtu.be/GLs2xxM0e78 2. Halloween Ends The 2022 American slasher movie Halloween Ends was written by Chris Bernier, Danny McBride, Paul Brad Logan, and David Gordon Green. It is the conclusion of the trilogy of follow-up movies that started with the 2018 film and is the sequel to Halloween Kills (2021), the thirteenth entry in the Halloween franchise. This trilogy's concluding film features a terrifying end to the Michael Myers and Laurie Strode saga. The final installment of David Gordon Green's Halloween sequel trilogy, in which Jamie Lee Curtis' Laurie Strode battles Michael Myers for the last time—presumably—pulls into second place, not far behind Black Adam. Halloween Ends had its world premiere on October 11, 2022 at Beyond Fest in Los Angeles before Universal Pictures distributed it in theaters nationwide on October 14, 2022. https://youtu.be/s0vtbxLa-N8 3. Eternal Spring In 2022, Jason Loftus' Canadian documentary, titled Eternal Spring (Chinese :), will be released. The movie focuses on Changchun's broadcast television stations being taken over by Falun Gong in 2002 and China's ongoing persecution of ethnic and religious minorities. It is based on animation by Chinese artist Daxiong. In March 2002, followers of the banned spiritual organization Falun Gong took control of a state TV station in China. Their intention was to refute the government's account of their method. Following this, police raids take place all around Changchun City, forcing Falun Gong practitioner and comic book illustrator Daxiong to leave. On March 15, 2022, the movie had its world premiere at the Thessaloniki Documentary Festival. After then, it was shown at the 2022 Hot Docs. https://youtu.be/5XpGpbaiz4Q 4. Doctor G Anubhuti Kashyap (making her directorial debut) is the director of the 2022 Indian Hindi-language medical college comedy film Doctor G, which is also produced by Junglee Pictures. The movie, which also stars Sheeba Chaddha, Rakul Preet Singh, Shefali Shah, and Ayushmann Khurrana, centers on a male gynecologist's struggles. The film Doctor G follows Uday Gupta's comical tribulations as the only male student in the gynecology department. His hesitancy causes mayhem, confusion, humor, and ultimately, a strong sense of brotherhood among his pupils. On October 14, 2022, it was released in theaters. https://youtu.be/XJrRrMCEmp8 5. Babli Bouncer Madhur Bhandarkar is the director of the 2022 Bollywood drama film Babli Bouncer. Tamannaah Bhatia will be portrayed as a female bouncer in Babli Bouncer. The various facets of this trade are also shown in the film. The movie follows Babli Bouncer, a unique story of a female bouncer (Tamannaah Bhatia). It examines the numerous dimensions of the typically male-dominated field. It debuted on Disney+ Hotstar on September 23, 2022. https://youtu.be/uShGv52y6no Read the full article

Dutch Masters Special: Raquel van Haver ontmoet

Was de tentoonstelling ‘Spirits of the Soil’ van Raquel van Haver jouw favoriete tentoonstelling in het Stedelijk vorig jaar? Dan moet je zeker op 17 december naar Pakhuis De Zwijger!

Foto: Martijn van Nieuwenhuyzen

Eerst nog even kort op een rijtje wie Raquel van Haver ook alweer is, mocht je dat vergeten zijn: 

🎨Geboren in Colombia 🎨Eén van de winnaars van de Koninklijke Prijs voor Vrije Schilderkunst van 2018 🎨Geïnteresseerd in de wisselwerking en schuring tussen identiteit, achtergrond en etniciteit 🎨Terugkerende thema’s in haar werk zijn ‘ik en de ander’, verbondenheid en vervreemding, verandering, uitwisseling en het zoeken naar identiteit 🎨Haar schilderijen zijn snapshots van het dagelijkse leven in haar eigen buurt in het Zuidoosten van Amsterdam 🎨Gebruikt niet alleen olieverf, maar ook bijvoorbeeld haar en sigaretten 

In Pakhuis De Zwijger zal ze niet alleen meer vertellen over haar werk, maar gaat ze ook in gesprek met een Charl Landvreugd en Bibi Fadlalla over de kunstsector en thema’s als vrouwelijke kunstenaars, representatie, en de positie van werk van kunstenaars in de ‘canon’ van de Nederlandse of West-Europese geschiedenis. 

Charl Landvreugd - beeldend kunstenaar, curator, schrijver en onderzoeker

Charl Landvreugd schept met zijn sculpturen, installaties, video’s, performances, fotografie, tentoonstellingen én geschreven werk nieuwe kaders voor hoe we denken over migratiegeschiedenis, cultuur en historische machtsrelaties. Dit jaar rondde hij zijn promotieonderzoek ‘Locating Afro artists as culturally native to the Dutch art world’ af waarin hij onderzoekt of het mogelijk is om kunstenaars met een migratieachtergrond als cultuureigen te beschouwen in het Nederlandse kunstlandschap. 

Bibi Fadlalla - documentairemaker 

Bibi Fadlalla debuteerde in 2012 met haar documentaire ‘Zwarte Piet en Ik’ en haar documentaire ‘Dat Haar!’ (2016) werd geselecteerd voor het Nederlands film Festival in 2017. Ook haar documentaire ‘Kendis’ (2017) over de vijftienjarige Lavanya Raghoenandan die dj wil worden had veel succes: de film werd namelijk onder andere geselecteerd voor IDFA’s Kids & Docs competition, TIFF Kids Film Festival, Chicago International Children’s Film Festival en Thessaloniki Int Film Festival. Haar meest recente film ‘Father Figure’ volgt leden van The Kiki House of Angels, een Vogue-dansgroep waarvan de meeste leden jonge zwarte homoseksuele jongens zijn die in hun alledaagse leven racisme en marginalisatie ervaren.
