Ein letztes Mal melden wir uns aus Cannes mit dem großen Festival-Rückblick. Till Kadritzke hat den gesamten Framing-Cannes-Pool am Strand um sich geschart und blickt gemeinsam mit Hannah Pilarczyk, Dunja Bialas, Andreas Busche und Valerie Dirk auf die letzten zehn Tage zurück. Wir beginnen mit einem Gang durch die Nebensektionen und das Programm von Un Certain Regard, in dem gleich drei Debüts von bekannten Schauspieler*innen zu sehen waren: Kristen Stewarts The Chronology of Water, Harris Dickinsons Urchin und Scarlett Johanssons Eleanor the Great. Außerdem besprechen wir weitere Highlights aus den Nebensektionen wie Nadav Lapids Yes über das Israel nach dem 7. Oktober, der vom Wettbewerb abgelehnt wurde und deshalb in der Quinzaine des Cinéastes lief. Im zweiten Teil lassen wir den Wettbewerb selbst Revue passieren, tauschen unsere Gesamteindrücke aus und würdigen Oliver Laxes Film Sirat, der bei Framing bisher zu kurz gekommen ist. Schließlich spielen wir Jury, vergeben unsere persönliche Goldene Palme, lassen noch ein paar in der Berichterstattung untergegangene Filme hochleben und teilen unsere schönsten Festival-Momente.Abonniert unseren Podcast in euren Podcatchern und lasst uns gern eine Bewertung da.

Aujourd'hui, Joëlle Dago-Serry, Emmanuel de Villiers et Antoine Diers débattent de l'actualité autour d'Alain Marschall et Olivier Truchot.

During demonstrations in apartheid-era South Africa, the police arrest Panic (Thomas Mogotlane), a mapantsula or petty gangster, while rounding up activists. His interrogation reveals the motivation for his involvement in the township riots. Once only concerned with partying, alcohol and his own interests, Panic finds himself being irreversibly pulled into the fray. Now, he is forced to choose between his personal freedom and taking a stand in the fight against the oppressive apartheid government. Directed by Oliver Schmitz and written by Schmitz and lead actor Thomas Mogotlane, "Mapantsula" has been hailed as the “first South African film to truly represent apartheid onscreen” (Okayafrica). Banned in its homeland and made while evading the local authorities, the film was screened in the Un Certain Regard section at Cannes and went on to be selected as the South African entry for Best Foreign Language Film at the Oscars. Widely considered one of the most influential African motion pictures of all time, "Mapantsula" has been newly restored in 4K from the original 35MM negative. https://youtu.be/zeS9sfuuCz8?si=LMgKTLJrUktJcJaU

Après avoir tourné pour Tran Ang Hung (« Éternité »), James Watkins (« Bastille Day ») et Nabil Ayouch (« Razzia »), il est à l'affiche de « Girl » de Lukas Dhont en 2018 dans lequel il incarne le père d'une adolescente en quête d'identité. Le film obtient la Caméra d'or, le Prix d'interprétation Un Certain Regard et la Queer Palm au Festival de Cannes tandis que la prestation d'Arieh Worthalter est saluée par le Magritte du meilleur second rôle masculin. L'année suivante, il recevra à nouveau cette récompense pour son rôle dans le plébiscité « Duelles » d'Olivier Masset-Depasse. En 2021, on le retrouve dans « Serre Moi Fort » de Mathieu Amalric aux côtés de Vicky Krieps.

Cat is a solitary animal, but as his home is devastated by a great flood, he finds refuge on a boat populated by various species, and will have to team up with them despite their differences.

Propos recueillis par Benoit Basirico par téléphone “Les Femmes au balcon”, de Noémie Merlant, Au cinéma le 11 décembre 2024 Musique originale composée par Uèle Lamore Entretien à lire : https://www.cinezik.org/infos/affinfo.php?titre0=20240528144443 Uèle Lamore a signé la musique du film de Noémie Merlant, “Les Femmes au balcon” (au cinéma le 11 décembre 2024, présenté à Un Certain Regard, Cannes 2024). La réalisatrice fait partie des trois femmes (avec Sanda Codreanu, Souheila Yacoub) dans un appartement à Marseille, regardant leur mystérieux voisin d'en face, avant que ce jeu de séduction ne vire au délire. La partition évolue avec le récit, passant de la comédie à l'épouvante. Elle illustre le calme estival par un saxophone sensuel au début, pour ensuite adopter des notes plus abruptes avec des percussions, en intégrant à l'instrumentation un piano, un violon et des voix.

Premiato al Festival di Cannes 2024 con il premio per la Miglior Regia nella sezione Un Certain Regard, “I Dannati” di Roberto Minervini è un'opera potente e profondamente esistenziale. Un viaggio esperienziale che esplora le zone più ignote e inesplorate dell'animo umano, attraversando confini e frontiere tanto interiori quanto universali. Un film capace di interrogarsi sul senso della vita, restituendo un'intensa umanità attraverso una messa in scena straordinaria fatta di silenzi che, in un mondo sempre più anestetizzato, risuonano con un fragore assordante. Per accompagnare questa esperienza cinematografica, proponiamo un drink che ne rispecchi il carattere: un raffinato Boulevardier. La sua anima è il Bourbon, il whisky americano amato dai soldati del film, che in esso trovano conforto e calore. La combinazione con Campari e Vermouth dà vita a una bevuta dal sapore complesso e intellettuale, perfetta per riflettere sui temi profondi e sulla sensibilità che Minervini porta sullo schermo. “I Dannati” è ora disponibile su Tim Vision. #ciaksibrinda #cinema #recensionefilm #recensione #film #movie #drink #beverage #boulevardier #cocktail #minervini #idannati #festivaldecannes #cannesfilmfestival #cannes

The 30th edition of the New York African Film Festival runs May 10 to 16 at Film at Lincoln Center, with a showcase that spans the historic past and the vital present of cinema from Africa. Last weekend, the festival hosted a special conversation in tribute to the great filmmaker Safi Faye, who passed away in February. Faye is best known as the first woman from Sub-Saharan Africa to ever direct a commercial feature film—1976's Kaddu Beykat—but the Senegalese pioneer's accomplishments and groundbreaking influence extend far beyond that landmark. Introduced to the world of cinema via an acting role in Jean Rouch's Petit à petit (1971), Faye went on to create a monumental body of work that includes award-winning shorts and features, including Selbe: One Among Many (1983), and Mossane, which won the Un Certain Regard award at the Cannes Film Festival in 1997. Through both documentary and fiction modes, Faye sought to capture the agency, subjectivity, and beauty of African women, and bring to vivid life the everyday realities of rural Senegal.  To explore Faye's legacy and lasting influence on African women's cinema today, NYAFF brought together the filmmakers Nuotama Bodomo, Jessica Beshir, Akosua Adoma Owusu, and Johanna Makabi for a roundtable led by the scholar and critic Yasmina Price. Film Comment is thrilled to share the conversation on today's episode in collaboration with the festival.
