Historias de dos<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Co-presented with EICTV<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The International School of Film and Television (EICTV) promotes documentary filmmaking through experimentation and creative freedom. In an annual collaboration with the Televisi\u00f3n Serrana, documentary students depart for the Sierra Maestra mountain range in Eastern Cuba to complete an exercise called \u201cone-to-one\u201d that usually leaves a deep impression on both students and professors alike. Two documentary students collaborate by sharing authorial control\u2013\u2013 the director of the documentary film is also the director of photography, and her\/his documentary colleague works as the boom operator and sound person. The pair switches roles to create multiple projects. This collaborative and minimalistic way of working is also used by many of the graduates and professors of EICTV including the panelists. What particularities does this concept of filming entail? What stories can these filmmakers tell us about the production mode and its relation with the domestic? What are the aesthetic implications of this form of cinematographic collaboration? This panel of four filmmaker couples will explore the \u201cone-to one\u201d exercise and the form of filmmaking it yields as an inspiration for student filmmakers to get acquainted with another way of making films.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Featuring:  Nicolas Pereda + Andrea Bussmann, Natalia Cabral + Oriol Estrada, Juliana Fanjul + Carlos Iba\u00f1ez, and moderated by Orisel Castro + York Neudel<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Re-Using The Archives<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Co-presented with Dar al-Kalima<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This panel explores ways of reusing and re-thinking the role of archives. It builds on the theme of co-creations seeking approaches to tackle disruptions and dislocations in the collection and dissemination of subaltern archives. The panel brings together the experience of film students from Dar al-Kalima University College of Arts and Culture who have reused the film archives of filmmaker Monica Mauer to create new films based on how they perceive the film reels of Monica\u2019s film Yom Al-Ard<\/em>. Shot in 1981 in the Galilee (Nazareth, Deir Hanna, and Sakhnin) the original film Yom-Al Ard<\/em> pays homage to the still prescient topics of the transversal unity of the people, their collective energy in the defense of Palestinian identity. In this panel students will view the original film that Monica made and with the panelists they will reflect on the emerging film language and approaches to re-using the film archives the students employed in their films.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Featuring: Salim Abu Jabal, Monika Mauer, Dar al- Kalima film students, and moderated by Mahasen Nasser-Eldin<\/p>\n\n\n\n

*Screening + Talk back* <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

States of Violence<\/em><\/a>, a program from We Tell: 50 Years of Participatory Community Media<\/strong> (1970s-2018)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We Tell<\/a> is a traveling multi-screening exhibition that restores to co-creative documentary practice its rich, multi-vocal 50-year legacy. Based in collaborations between media-making organizations and frontline response to varied forms of repression, the films in the States of Violence<\/em><\/a> program give the narrative authority, and sometimes the camera, to those who experience and resist violence in forms as diverse as intimate partner violence, mass incarceration, police brutality, and the first Gulf War. In the talkback with We Tell’s co-organizers\/curators and two of the filmmaker\/facilitators whose projects are included in this program, we discuss the importance of a community media infrastructure for producing this work, the off-screen human relationships propelling these projects, and the stakes of articulating a history (albeit a US-based one) of this short-form, collaboratively-created “cinema of utility,” a too-little studied form of documentary, which festivals and the academy have heretofore ignored.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2<\/strong><\/em><\/strong>00km<\/strong><\/strong> <\/em>by Discusion14<\/strong> (2003)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This feature film, co-directed by 14 members of a collective, follows the workers of SINTEL, one of the largest telecom companies, at the moment of its privatization. After the government negates on its promises to either offer early retirement or relocation of the workers to another company, the SINTEL workers start a 200km protest march from six different cities spread throughout the Spanish geography. About 1500 workers and their families walk for eight days all over Spain to meet in Madrid on May 1st, for the Labor Day demonstration, to confront their union leaders and claim a solution to their situation. The film shows the courage and determination of these men and women, who, despite all their problems, decide to keep on fighting for their dignity, for their future and their children. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
