No spanish review yet:
Bamako is a Miracle: Verna Gillis , an American producer, convinces her husband Roswell Rudd , one of the greatest jazz trombonists to go to Mali. Once in the Malian capital, Gillis brings together the jazzman and the Malian griot Toumani Diabaté for a month. Roswell has the griot and his cronies play the Thelonious Monk while Toumani in turn teaches him traditional Mandingo themes . As the days go by, an ethnomusical record will be born from this collaboration. Despite the difficulties, the documentary appears as a fusional encounter where the mixing of sounds and cultures generates a quality record. Bamako is a Miracle is meant to be a story of a musical adventure full of emotions, the showcase of two cultures coming together. Sivas, Home of Poets : The Alevis draw their religious tradition from Muhammad's son-in-law, Ali, just like the Iranian Shiites. However, the Alevis do not see themselves as fundamentalists, but rather as a liberal and open-minded community. In Alevi culture, special importance is attached to singing, dancing and festivals celebrated within the community. The musicians are called Ashik, 'those who love God'. In their songs, the Ashiks mix the history passed down through the generations with current events. They see themselves as the poets who continue to tell the story and the suffering of their people. The Turkish Alevis have been persecuted by the religious majority, the Sunnis, throughout the centuries and considered 'infidels'. With the advance of Islamic fundamentalism, they have become the legitimate target of religious fanatics. During the filming, the hotel in which the Alevis were meeting was set on fire by a crowd of fundamentalists causing the death of 37 people, including some of the poets and musicians who participated in this film. Close Apart : April 1999, D-Day minus 275 in the Kalahari Desert, like everywhere on earth. In 8 months, the year 2000. In the village of Auru, Emmanuelle, an ethnomusicologist, has five Bushmen musicians rehearse. In 2 weeks, they are giving a series of concerts in Paris. In Paris, hunters and women with ocher painted faces and scarified legs are transformed for a few days into consumer tourists, fascinated by roller skates, the Eiffel Tower and the slaloms on motorbikes of pizza delivery men. The music of hunting or healing rituals becomes for a time a staged show, through which the bushmen question their own culture. At what price do these music and money transactions take place? What will be the impact when returning to the village? Contrary to popular belief - the gods fell on their heads? - it may well be that the bushmen have their own idea about it. The Poet's Salary: For the first time in many years, on the little island of Motalava in Vanuatu, a new song will be composed in the island's ancestors' language, the language of god Quat, and become part of the island's repertoire. The Poet's Salary tells of the daily life of ethnographers while doing fieldwork, through a vivid and colourful account of the mutual exchanges between the people of Motalava and ethnolinguist Alexandre Francois and ethnomusicologist Monika Stern . Singing for a Lost Country: Summary: The 'lost country' is Chameria, in the north of present-day Greece, which the Muslim Albanians were forced to abandon after the war. Country of high nostalgia that we sing and cry at the same time. Shaban Zeneli, singer, resides in Albania. Occasionally, he crosses the border illegally for the simple purpose of seeing his father's village, now in ruins. On the stroke of emotion, he sings and creates new songs. The film recounts this journey remade with Shaban in August - September 2006. Crying for the Dead: In the Gypsy quarter of a village in Transylvania, an old woman has died. During the two nights preceding the funeral, family, friends and neighbors follow one another at his bedside to accompany his departure in music. Their lamentations are captured crescendo by the camera in a single take. Walé Chantal, an Ekonda Woman : Among the Ekonda of Zaire, the most important moment in a woman's life is the birth of her first child. The young breastfeeding mother, called Walé, then returned to her parents where she remained a recluse for a period of two to five years. Chantal, a young woman from the village of Ikongo, sees the end of this seclusion coming, marked by a ritual in which, accompanied by women from the village of Wéli who performed it, she presents a dance and song show. Masters of Balafon: Funeral Festivities: Shot in the Ivory Coast in 1998-1999, this film by Hugo Zemp takes us to the funeral rites of the Senoufo, a village people among whom the music of the balafon orchestras (resonator xylophones from French-speaking West Africa) fills a indispensable social and ceremonial role. An investigation by a learned musicologist and a tribute by a bold filmmaker to the beauty and fragility of a traditional rural African culture. Each blade of the balafon has a name and a function. The art of making the reeds sing, the repertoire of themes and variations that distinguishes the virtuoso soloist, the role of percussion, the complex composition of an orchestra, are taught from father to son. As master balafonist Nahoua Silue reveals his secrets, funeral rituals unfold in five Senoufo villages. Here the balafons parade, the women dance, there they prepare the meal of mourning: 'Music and dance ease the pain.' Funeral rites and festive sociability are rooted in a skilfully preserved traditional culture. From the wrapping of the body in fabrics to the burial and decoration of the tomb with shards, passing through masks, songs of lamentation or entertainment and acrobatic dances, the ceremonies unfold a spectacular ritual and sumptuous. Practice and Mastership: The Lucan bagpipe, legacy of centuries of popular practice and mastery, told by two elderly brothers, Antonio and Vincenzo Forastiero. The former is a maker and the latter a player, accompanying the spectator on an exciting journey of discovery of the instrument. Witnesses and interpreters of a culture that is still alive and felt in Lucania, the two Forastiero brothers offer themselves to the respectful gaze of the camera with pride and irony, dragging the viewer into a rarefied atmosphere, in a time marked by nostalgia for their fellow bagpipers disappeared, from the impellences of their daily life and from an almost childish curiosity for everything they don't know. Turnim Hed: Documentary on music and courtship rituals of the Chimbu people at Kundiawa, in the highlands of Papua New Guinea. Dance with the Wodaabes: In the heart of the Nigerien Sahel, far off the beaten 'asphalt' track, thousands of Fulbe Wodaabe nomads gather every year for a gigantic ceremony named the geerewol. For seven full days and nights, following the solar cycle, two lineages are opposed in a genuine ritual war, with for only weapons song and dance. The stakes of war, the clear challenge: stealing women. The ultimate purpose: to break in peace after having mutually expressed recognition of cultural conformity. As a result of ten years' research and friendship, the film is based on an active listening of the ritual's protagonists who chose to disclose the deep meaning of this tradition to us, conscious as they are that the ecological crisis striking Sahel makes such gatherings less and less likely in the future. Jupiter's Dance: The ghettos of Kinshasa - the devastated capital of a country politically and economically adrift - are filled with many gifted; yet impoverished musicians.
