Cold Lands (2018)

Humankind has always dreamt of the night sky. Of the infinite freedom offered by the black void, and of the strong, shining beacon inviting us to ascend. This is a story, a history of the events that led up to our conquest of space, and the consequences throughout wider humanity. The film is a collage. Of genres, documentary and comedy. Of media, drawing from painting and film. Of films, cannibalising all film history. Of truth, both objective and subjective. Watch the small steps and let your mind take a giant leap.

1909년의 콜롬비아의 아마존. 독일 민속학자이자 여행가인 테오도어는 신비한 치유의 힘을 가진 풀 야크루나를 찾기 위해 원주민 무당인 카라마카테와 길을 떠난다. 한편 1940년대 같은 지역에서 미국인 식물학자인 에반스도 야크루나를 찾기 위해 카라마카테를 고용한다. 언어와 관습, 문화가 다른 백인과 원주민의 조우는 몰이해와 갈등, 때로는 폭력으로 이어진다. 2009년 칸영화제 주목할만한시선 부문에서 선보인 이후 발표한 치로 게라의 세 번째 장편 은 실존인물인 테오도어 코흐-그룬베르크와 리차드 에반스 슐츠의 여행기에서 영감을 받았다. 서로 다른 시간의 두 가지 이야기가 병치되는 독특한 서사 구조 안에서 백인 여행가와 원주민 무당의 조우는 언어, 관습, 문화의 차이로 야기되는 끝없는 긴장으로 이어지며, 이는 유럽 식민주의의 폭력적 본성을 드러낸다. 흑백으로 촬영된 아마존의 자연경관은 인간, 자연 그리고 권력의 그물이 한 치의 미화도 없이 드러나는 식민의 맨 얼굴처럼 다가온다.

FULLSTERKUR is the third documentary in a collection of films produced by Rogue Fitness, exploring strength culture around the world, connected specifically by the ancient tradition of stone lifting. Nestled at the doorstep of the Arctic Circle, the country of Iceland is uniquely acquainted with the relationship between strength and survival. For hundreds of years, men and women were challenged to overcome harsh weather and endless winter nights by developing their own distinct physical and mental fortitude—passed down from the age of the Vikings, and iconically represented by the lifting of heavy stones. Today, on an island with a population of just over 300,000, a disproportionate number of the world’s greatest strength athletes still call Iceland home.

Cameramen and women discuss the craft and art of cinematography and of the "DP" (the director of photography), illustrating their points with clips from 100 films, from Birth of a Nation to Do the Right Thing. Themes: the DP tells people where to look; changes in movies (the arrival of sound, color, and wide screens) required creative responses from DPs; and, these artisans constantly invent new equipment and try new things, with wonderful results. The narration takes us through the identifiable studio styles of the 30s, the emergence of noir, the New York look, and the impact of Europeans. Citizen Kane, The Conformist, and Gordon Willis get special attention.
