[Jessica Rosner]

One small one I would add is LEMON TREE  about a Palestinian woman in her
40s dealing with both political and personal issues and a smaller part of
the the film deals with an Israeli politicians wife who has some of the same
issues.

America - The War Years 1941-45 (5 Tape Set) [VHS] (VHS Tape - 2000)

is still around.  An interesting mish-mash of newsreels and other
actuality stuff.

World War II Homefront is a 2 DVD set that has patriotic shorts done by
Hollywood stars

The Uncle Sam Movie Collection (particularly Volume 4) is a cool
collection of propaganda, newsreels, training/education films related to
the War at home.

Hi All,

My annual appeal to the collective brain:

I have a women's studies instructor who teaches a class on gender issues in 
world film each fall.  She tries to use all new titles each semester, and it 
can be a challenge for her to find a new slate each year.  Any recent releases 
that come to mind would be greatly appreciated.  Here are the topics / areas 
that are of particular interest for her:  "intersexuality, reproductive rights, 
marriage choice, prostitution, religion and cultural gendered practices."

She is ONLY interested in feature films -- not documentaries.

Re: [Videolib] Collective Brain: Gender Issues in Foreign Feature Films

[ghandman]

OK

Here are a few:

Women's Prison (Zendan-e zanan) (Iran, 2002)
Directed by Manijeh Hekmat. Cast: Roya Nonahali, Roya Taymourian,
Pegah Ahangarani, Golab Adineh, Maryam Boobani. Famously 'banned' for
more than a year by Iranian authorities, this taboo-breaking film is
based on Manijeh Hekmat's long fieldwork, among women prisoners in
Iran. She depicts the lives of Iran's lost generation in the two
decades since the 1979 Islamic Revolution, using the claustrophobic
life of women behind bars as a metaphor for the entire society. Her
protagonist, Mitra, is in prison for killing her violent stepfather.
On the eve of a prison riot she confronts Tahereh, the new warden,
whose dogmatic views she challenges fearlessly. Over the course of the
next 20 years, Tahereh's attitude toward her prisoners changes and
oftens, which reflects the country's shifting political stance.
Eventually Mitra, aged and exhausted, is finally released, but Tahereh
left behind, is now more like a prisoner herself. 106 min

Osama (Afghanistan / Netherlands / Japan / Ireland / Iran, 2003)
Directed by Siddiq Barmak. Cast: Marina Golbahari, Arif Herati,
Zubaida Sahar. Based on true events, chronicles the story of a
12-year-old girl in Taliban-ruled Afghanistan who must disguise
herself as a boy to save her family from starvation. The first feature
film made in Afghanistan in the post-Taliban era. 83 min.

A Summer in La Goulette (Halq al-Wadi; Un été à la Goulette)  (Tunisia /
France / Belgium, 1996)
Director, Férid Boughedir. Cast: Sonia Mankaï, Ava Cohen-Jonathan,
Sarah Pariente, Mustapha Adouani, Guy Nataf, Gamil Ratib, Claudia
Cardinale. Youssef is a Muslim, Jojo is Jewish and Giuseppi is an
Italian Catholic, and they are best of friends until each of their
daughters swears to lose their virginity by a certain date. To make
matters worse, each daughter sets her sights on a boy of a different
religion, thus challenging an inviolable taboo and causing a rift
between their fathers. As the families resolve their differences, the
Six Day War breaks out in the Middle East, which will divide Jews and
Arabs the world over. 100 min.

Daughters of the Sun (Dokhtaran khorshid) (Iran, 2000)
Director Maryam Shahriar. Amanagol, the daughter of a poor rural
family in Iran, becomes Aman when her father shaves her head,
disguises her as a boy, and dispatches her to another village to work
weaving carpets. Her secret is jeopardized when a co-worker falls in
love with her. 92 min.

The Day I Became a Woman (Roozi keh zan shodam) (Iran, 2000)
Director, Marziyeh Meshkini; script, Mohsen Makhmalbaf. A drama
revolving around three portraits of women at three stages of life in
Iran: A nine-year-old girl told she can no longer play with boys
because she is now a "woman", a young woman who enters a bicycle race
against her husband's wishes, and an old woman who gains money and the
freedom to do what she wishes with it. 78 min.

Offsides (Afsaid)(2006)
Director, Jafar Panahi. Cast: Sima Mobarak Shahi, Safar Samandar,
Shayesteh Irani, M. Kheyrabadi, Ida Sadeghi, Golnaz Farmani. During
the 2006 Iran-Bahrain match, the Tehran soccer stadium roars with
100,000 cheering men and, officially, no women. According to Islamic
custom, women are not permitted to watch or participate in men's
sports. Many of the ambitious young female fans who manage to sneak
into the arena are caught and sent to a holding pen, guarded by male
soldiers their own age. Duty makes these young men and women
adversaries, but duty can't overcome their shared dreams, their mutual
attraction, and ultimately their overriding sense of national pride
and humanity. 92 min.

Ten (10) (Iran, 2002)
Directed by Abbas Kiarostami. Featuring: Mania Akbari, Roya Arabshahi,
Katayoun Taleizadeh, Mandana Sharbaf, Ameme Moradi, Amin Maher, Kamran
Adl, Morteza Tabatabai, Bahman Kiarostami, Mastaneh Mohajer, Mazdak
Sepanlu, Reza Yazdani, Vahid Ghazi. Presents a portrait of
contemporary Iran, as seen through the eyes of one woman as she drives
through the streets of Tehran over a period of several days. Her
journey is comprised of ten conversations with various female
passengers, and shed light on the lives of these women whose voices
are seldom heard. 90 min.

Kadosh (Sacred) (Israel, 1999)
Directed by Amos Gitai. The story of two Hasidic sisters living in the
Mea Shearim area of Jerusalem. Rivka and her husband are deeply in
love, but he obeys his rabbi father and divorces her after 10
childless years of marriage. Rivka's sister Malka loves a man who has
left Hasidism after joining the army, but accepts the marriage her
parents have arranged to the rabbi's assistant. 117 min.

Or, My Treasure (My Treasure; Mon Tresor) (Israel, 2004)
Directed by Keren Yedaya. Cast: Ronit Elkabetz, Dana Ivgy, Meshar
Cohen, Katia Zimbris, Shmuel Edelman. Or, a pretty and popular Tel
Aviv high school student, works nights at a neighborhood restaurant
while taking her first tentative steps out of innocen

Feature Films


Hi All,

My annual appeal to the collective brain:

I have a women's studies instructor who teaches a class on gender  
issues in world film each fall.  She tries to use all new titles  
each semester, and it can be a challenge for her to find a new  
slate each year.  Any recent releases that come to mind would be  
greatly appreciated.  Here are the topics / areas that are of  
particular interest for her:  "intersexuality, reproductive  
rights, marriage choice, prostitution, religion and cultural  
gendered practices."


She is ONLY interested in feature films -- not documentaries.

Thanks in advance,

[Meghann Matwichuk]

Thanks for all the great suggestions so far.  To answer Elizabeth's 
question -- these are some of the topics the instructor is looking to 
explore over the course of the semester, so no, she's not expecting to 
find films that cover all these in one title.  She's looking for a 
handful of films from different world cinemas from 2008 or so forward.


Best,
Meghann

Re: [Videolib] Collective Brain: Gender Issues in Foreign Feature Films

[Alonso-Regalado, Jesus]

Hi Meghann,

What about the movies about the following foreign directors:


-  Lucia Puenzo (Argentina). Her movie "XXY" is a great movie to 
explore issues dealing with sexuality. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0995829/

-  Iciar Bollain (Spain). http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0093081/ Most of 
her movies would work. "Mataharis", "Take my Eyes" or "Flowers from Another 
World" could work well

-  Fernando Leon de Aranoa (Spain) His movie "Princesas" might work 
well for prostitution and immigration-related issues  
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0434292/





Hope this helps.

Is your facultyperson interested in fictional film only, or also docs?

If it's the former:

How about taking a look at our Women Directors page:

media, daily professional development sessions further enhance the Market
experience by keeping you abreast of current hot topics in educational media
and helping you gain a national perspective on current media issues.
 
Highlights of this year's Market:
 
Jane Hutchison, William Paterson University, is facilitating a
pre-conference discussion group. This is a follow-up meeting to an ongoing
discussion about policies and practices for the distribution and delivery of
digital video.
 
This year's opening session will be presented by Faith Rogow, Ph.D.,
founding president of NAMLE (National Association for Media Literacy) who
will demonstrate how new approaches to media literacy education make it
possible for every school to create a culture of inquiry, using practical
and easy-to-implement examples based on sound educational pedagogy.
  
Christopher Lohse from The Council of Chief State School Officers (CCSSO)
will explain why the Common State Standards Initiative is important for the
country. These common standards will bring about real and meaningful
transformation of our education system to benefit all students. The first
standards being addressed are English-language arts and mathematics in
grades K-12.
 
Do you want to learn how to use social media marketing to help your audience
discover what¹s in your collection? Then attend Wednesday¹s session with
Allen Chou, President of Passion River Films and an accomplished social
media user.
 
But the Market isn¹t all about 21st learning skills! Let¹s get to what
really matters ­ milk chocolate, dark chocolate and everything that goes
with them. Sign up for the ³Sweet Kansas City tour² on Sunday afternoon, led
by Brigid Duffy, former KC resident and long time Media Market attendee, who
will spice your trip with bits of local history.

Even if this particular question of Chris's has been answered, I still think 
there's something fishy.  American Indian*a* Film Gallery?  Heh, this Hoosier

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry.
Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the
1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to
make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but
also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially
unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset
sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop
publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem
Ipsum.

[Videolib] MECHANICAL LOVE film subject featured as cover story of Sunday's New York Times

[Sylvia Savadjian]

Paro, subject of the new Icarus Films documentary, MECHANICAL LOVE
(http://icarusfilms.com/new2009/ml.html)

featured as the cover story of Sunday's (7/4/10) New York Times.

 

We're all aware of the emotional benefits of pet therapy. But what about a
cuddly caretaker who runs on batteries? 

Japanese robot sensation, Paro, is now reaching U.S. shores. Read on to
learn how Paro may redefine the world of elder care: 

http://www.nytimes.com/2010/07/05/science/05robot.html?_r=1
 &scp=1&sq=paro&st=cse

 

MECHANICAL LOVE examines the contemporary interrelationship between robots

and humans, explaining the differences between a "humanoid" (a robot in the
shape

of a human being), an "android" (a robot that looks and moves like a human)
and a

"geminoid" (a copy of an actual human being).

 

The film profiles Professor Hiroshi Ishiguro, an engineer at Osaka
University who has

created an eerily lifelike robot facsimile of himself; meets with Professor
Takanori

Shibata, the inventor of "Paro," an electronic baby seal; and interviews a
physiotherapist

who explains how such interactive "pets" are being used as therapy in

retirement homes.

 

Filmed in Japan, Germany, Italy, Sweden, and the U.S., MECHANICAL LOVE
explores

the amazing worldwide advances in robot technology, the changing nature of
the

relationships between humans and their machines, the social benefits and
dangers,

and the universal human desires to love and be loved.

 

"Captures a future possibility where robots aren't cold, killing
Terminators,

but rather tools for people to find happiness, focus, and purpose."
