Avi MOGRABI follows journalists in his car. Under the unyielding glares and threats from tanks and missles, they try to find their way. Lia LAPITHI SHUKUROGLOU questions the Greek-Chypriot double identity vis-a-vis its ethnic and religious origins. Jonathan CUMMINS documents the conversations he had with an Irish political prisoner and questions the impact incarceration has on extreme ideological convictions. For this piece, Aurelia MIHAI drew inspiration from the figure of countess Elisabeth Báthory, the character Dracula’s female adornment, who bathed in the blood of young women to preserve her youth. She draws a parallel between the countess and the female patients of a psychiatric ward in Romania, in 1969, under the regime of Ceausescu. Lina SELANDER uses Godard’s la Chinoise as a launching pad to examine the relationship between political, emotional and utopist verbal expression. She explores the revolutionary ideals of that time and the desire to start anew. Ramon MATEOS show which ideological tools are used in affirming an hypothetical national identity. In ‘Les oiseaux d’Arabie”, David YON speaks to us about Antonio Atarès, one of thousands of Spanish refugies who crossed the Pyrénées to escape Franco’s regime. Upon arriving in France, he is sent to Camp Vernet in Ariège. Then in March 1941, he received a letter from an unknown person, the philosopher Simone Weil. Their paths are destined to cross in the half-light of history. On one side we have a politically engaged Jewish philosopher fighting a mystical battle in Marseille and on the other side, we have an anarchist countryman exiled to Vernet then to the edge of the Sahara, in Djelfa in Algeria.

DOUBLE TAKE
In the presence of Johan Grimonprez
Johan GRIMONPREZ : Double Take | Fiction Documentary | 16mm | color and b&w | 1:20:00 | Belgium / Belgium, Germany, The Netherlands | 2009 [•]
Johan Grimonprez casts Alfred Hitchcock as a paranoid history professor, unwittingly caught up in a double take on the cold war period. The master says all the wrong things at all the wrong times while politicians on both sides desperately clammer to say the right things, live on TV. DOUBLE TAKE targets the global political rise of ‘fear as a commodity’, in a tale of odd couples and double deals. As television hijacks cinema, and the Krushchev and Nixon debate rattles on, sexual politics quietly take off and Alfred himself emerges in a dandy new role on the TV, blackmailing housewives with brands they can`t refuse. The novelist Tom McCarthy writes a plot of personal paranoia to mirror the political intrigue, in which Hitchcock and his elusive double increasingly obsess over the perfect murder – of each other!

By Comparaison
An overview of different brick production methods worldwide. “I want to propose a film which contributes something to the existing concepts. A comparison of the work done in a traditional society, for example in Africa, with that of a developing country, like India and that of a society that is highly industrialized like in Europe or Japan. The target of the comparison is the work which is done for the construction of homes.” (H. F.).
