[Frameworks] Spotlight on Guatemala: I Will be Murdered Now Available for Educational Purchase
Dear Friends, I just wanted to share Pragda’s fantastic new title I WILL BE MURDERED with you. It is now available for educational purchase. “Astonishing.” - GQ “A gripping, twisty thriller.” - John Dugdale, THE SUNDAY TIMES 2014 New Release I WILL BE MURDERED is a gripping, edge-of-your seat documentary that portrays the astonishing, real-life story of a lawyer who launched a personal crusade in search of justice, and brought his country to the brink of chaos. Essential-viewing for courses in International Politics, Human Rights, Hispanic or Latin American Studies, and Sociology. I WILL BE MURDERED A film by Justin Webster UK, Spain / 2013 / 52 min / English and Spanish with English subtitles Universities, Colleges, and Institutions $350 Public Libraries $89 Watch the trailer and order: http://www.pragda.com/films/i-will-be-murdered Guatemala 2009. Wealthy and charismatic lawyer Rodrigo Rosenberg Marzano was shot and killed near his home. A few days later, a YouTube video, in which Rosenberg pronounces his contempt for the situation in his country and its government, is uploaded. The video closes with Rosenberg’s words, “Unfortunately, ladies and gentleman, you are watching this video because I was murdered by the President Álvaro Colom.” The video quickly went viral and led to a national crisis, rallying massive demonstrations and protests in favor of justice and against then president Álvaro Colom. With streets and squares filled with banners calling for his resignation, Colom called in help from the UN-formed commission against impunity, the CICIG, and high-profile Spanish attorney Carlos Castresana. There began a brilliant investigation, a journey into Rosenberg’s soul and Guatemala’s hell, that after multiple twists and turns, reached a stunning conclusion.

[Frameworks] Shelly Silver: Intimate Visions and Public Spaces - REDCAT Mon April 14
dear all: very last minute invite. i'll be heading west this weekend for a screening at REDCAT. it would be great to see any los angeles frameworks folks there! best, shelly Monday, April 14, 2014, 8:30 pm Shelly Silver: Intimate Visions and Public Spaces “By staking her right to documentary material as well as fictional writing, Shelly Silver sizes up the likelihood of an imaginary point of view reaching a truth more subtle than autobiographical truth.” —Cinéma du Réel Jack H. Skirball Series This screening of two works by Shelly Silver begins with What I’m Looking For (2004, digital video, 15 min.), the second in her trilogy of fictional essay films shot in public spaces, which explores the relationship between a female photographer and subjects met on the Internet. The program continues with Touch (2013, digital video, 68 min.), in which a gay man recounts, mostly in Mandarin, his return to New York’s Chinatown after 50 years in order to care for his dying mother. Like the narrator—a librarian, cataloguer and recorder—the city has changed and yet the past still haunts familiar streets. The character is an invention of the filmmaker, but as her narrator confides, “words make the impossible imaginable, therefore possible.” Currently chair of Columbia’s Visual Arts Program, Silver has utilized video, film and still photography to investigate contested territories between public and private, narrative and documentary, the watcher and the watched. Funded in part with generous support from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences. Curated by Steve Anker and Bérénice Reynaud. https://www.facebook.com/events/1400186916919275/?ref_dashboard_filter=upcoming http://www.redcat.org/event/shelly-silver___ FrameWorks mailing list FrameWorks@jonasmekasfilms.com https://mailman-mail5.webfaction.com/listinfo/frameworks
