Agnes Varda

Specijalno Novogodišnje dvostruko izdanje, poklon posvećenim čitaocima Camere Lucide, počinje sjajnom analizom našeg stalnog Lucidnog autora Jean-Michel Frodona filma Čovjek od integriteta, Mohammada Rasoulofa, koji “prikazuje konflikt duboko ukorijenjen u iranskoj realnosti, koja postaje i eho stvarnog života režisera filma”. Jonathan Rosenbaum se vraća djelu Agnes Varde sa posebnim fokusom na njen film Les glaneurs et la glaneuse, dok «Ex Libris,   istraživanje jedne stvarne utopije u srcu Amerike”, koji potpisuje Jean-Michel Frodon, otkriva kako  novi dokumentarac  Fredericka Wisemana Ex Libris transformiše opis javne biblioteke New Yorka u zadivljujuće putovanje demokratije. U Retrospektivama,  Jonathan Rosenbaum “razgovara o Godardu sa Kajom Silverman i Harunom Farockijem”, analizira video umjetnost Soft and Hard autora Godarda i Mièvielle, elaborira dvije vrste kritike u eseju “Pravi krivac: dvije vrste kritike u Godardovom djelu” i piše uvodnu riječ za dosije na farsi jeziku, koji je priredio Ehsan Khoshbakht marta 2012. godine, o Alain Resnais-u.

Documentaries are a discipline that teaches modesty

Agnes Varda

The special New Year’s 31-32 double issue, a gift to dedicated Camera Lucida readers, begins with a poignant analysis by the Lucid regular Jean-Michel Frodon of Mohammad Rasoulof’s film A Man of Integrity, which “depicts a conflict rooted in the Iranian reality, finding an echo in the director’s own life”. Jonathan Rosenbaum revisits the work of Agnes Varda with a special focus on her Les glaneurs et la glaneuse in “Precious Leftovers (The Gleaners and I)”.  «Ex Libris, exploration of a real utopia in the heart of America” by Jean-Michel Frodon reveals how Frederick Wiseman’s new documentary Ex Libris transforms the description of the New York public library into an extraordinary voyage of democracy. In Retrospectives,  Jonathan Rosenabaum “speaks about Godard with Kaja Silverman and  Harun Farocki”,  elaborates on Godard and Mièvielle’s Soft and Hard, discusses two kinds of criticism in “Le vrai coupable: two kinds of criticism in Godard’s work” and introduces a dossier in Farsi on Alain Resnais, prepared by Ehsan Khoshbakht in March 2012.

Festivals section brings exclusive festival reports of Malatya International Film Festival, Portoroz Festival of Slovenian Film, Manaki Brothers International Film Festival of cinematographers - Bitola, in “Touch the light” by Kiriakos Peftitselis, and Cottbus Film Festival of East European Cinema, in Alexandra Pütter’s “The woods and the trees”. The reports are followed by interviews with Nataša Bučar, Director of Slovenian Film Centre, Sarajevo-based film director Elmir Jukić and Tunisian film director, novelist, painter/artist Nacer Khemir, with the three of whom I met in Portoroz, Bitola and Malatya, respectively.

More interviews with outstanding world film figures follow in the Interviews section: with Semih Kaplanoĝlu by Dejan Trajkoski (in Macedonian and English languages), Amos Gitai by Joan Dupont, Ivan Passer by Ronald Bergan and with Jan Harlan, the latter three translated from English by Nina Bukilić.
