Filmavond, films for those who care | CHRONICLE OF A SUMMER
2022-08-18 20:30 - 23:00 | Dokhuis
SYMBIOPSYCHOTAXICINEMA

Films for Those Who Care
Presented by Jeffrey Badcock

A series of socially engaged movies, screened once a month on Thursdays. Touching on such hot topics as immigration, homelessness, racism, education, radical gender propositions, the pandemic and gentrification, these films not only explore visionary politics, but are also chosen to stir our imagination and creativity. The essence of cinema is the collective experience, and these screenings are aimed at creating intimate communities again in an increasingly hectic and fragmented world.

CHRONICLE OF A SUMMER 1961
(Chronique d’un été)
Directed by Jean Rouch and Edgar Morin
85 minutes
In French with English subtitles

This is one of the most important films in the history of cinema, and one that is rarely ever shown in cinemas these days. Ethnographer Jean Rouch is famous for his anthropological films about African culture, and was a pioneer in creating a new kind of documentary cinema in which he made films with the participation of his subjects (rather than judging them from afar). His groundbreaking movies (called ‘shared anthropology’) were heralded by the French New Wave because he found a way to make cinema real again, and you can see his huge impact on their New Wave cinema.
So in 1960 anthropologist Rouch collaborated with sociologist Edgar Morin on an experiment. Instead of making so-called “ethnographic” films about people in faraway lands like Africa or Asia, they decided to turn the camera on their own culture for a change. Using a newly available 16mm camera, they set out to do what no one else had done before—to go out into the streets of Paris and attempt to capture daily life and discuss it. They felt they needed a theme to focus the project, so they simply asked people if they were happy. The result is shattering, both cinematically and emotionally. Souls are revealed in a way that no fake dramatic acting could ever come close to…. piercing and moving, even more so because it’s so real and unscripted.
As one viewer said “watch it and be blown away.” Once again, cinema these days has fallen into a narrow rut… we need fresh ideas that can spark new directions of filmmaking—and this movie does exactly that. It both expands the imagination, and grounds us in real life at the same time.
This will be a high-definition screening.

Lady Chatterley’s Lover – De Warme Winkel theatervoorstelling
2022-09-09 20:00 - 22:00, 2022-09-10 20:30 - 22:00 | Dokzaal
In de beruchte en grensverleggende roman Lady Chatterley’s Lover (1928) van D.H. Lawrence valt de adellijke Constance Chatterley halsoverkop voor de brute charmes van boswachter Oliver Mellors. Vanwege de opwindende inhoud veroorzaakte de roman een groot schandaal en was het lange tijd verboden in Engeland en ver daarbuiten. In het geniep werd het boek decennia van hand op hand doorgegeven.
Hoewel Lawrence toen vooral werd gezien als provocateur, was dat allerminst zijn bedoeling. Hij voelde heilig vuur om eerlijk te spreken over seks en seksuele voorkeur. Hij wilde nieuwe rolmodellen creëren en zette zijn lezers aan in het reine te komen met kanten van onszelf die we het liefst aan het daglicht onttrekken.
Houvast zoekend in het verleden, van henzelf en van het begin 20e-eeuwse Engeland, gaan Florian Myjer en Lisa Verbelen de dans aan met deze schandaalroman. Vol overgave omarmen ze hun seks en hun driften. Schaamteloos wentelen ze zich in perversie en genot en nemen Lady Chatterley’s Lover een beetje ruig en een beetje teder mee naar de 21e eeuw.
Na een steeds intensievere samenwerking is Florian Myjer op 1 januari 2021 toegetreden tot de artistieke kern van dit illustere gezelschap. Lady Chatterley’s Lover is zijn eerste Warme Winkel (voorheen toneelgroep Amsterdam)-voorstelling in die hoedanigheid en zijn laatste bij Frascati Producties. Hij schreef deze samen met Warme Winkel-sweetheart Marieke de Zwaan en BOG.-flirt Lisa Verbelen.

ICI ET AILLEURS 1976
Directed by Jean-Luc Godard, Anne-Marie Miéville and Jean-Pierre Gorin
55 minutes
In French with English subtitles
This is Jean-Luc Godard, Anne-Marie Melville and Jean-Pierre Gorin’s radical cinematic adventure that focuses on the state of life within the Palestinian camps (elsewhere) and how it is seen by people in the West (here). But, typical of Godard, the film is also self-reflexive, and is thus transformed into an acute examination of the nature of cinema itself and how it works.
Godard started off as an ‘auteur’ filmmaker, believing in the singular vision of the artist, but this idea evolved in the late 1960s, and he began to embrace the possibilities of the collective. This is a wonderful example of his collaborative work—it was a period of questioning all presumptions of cinema, and reinventing it from the ground up. New thoughts, new aesthetics and a new spirit.
This will be a high-definition screening.

JLG/JLG – SELF PORTRAIT IN DECEMBER 1994
(JLG/JLG – autoportrait de décembre)
Directed by Jean-Luc Godard
54 minutes
In French with English subtitles
This is Godard’s ‘self portrait’ which shouldn’t be confused with an autobiography. This poetic film reflects how Godard feels about several subjects, which include death and cinema…things that are closer to his soul than biographical details ever could be. Therefore Godard does not recount the story of his life, but instead he uses film to present himself the way a painter would in a self-portrait…. by making a collage of his thoughts, loves and fears.
Although he doesn’t bring out any biographical information, he does refer to his earlier films in the haunting images of JLG/JLG. As in many of Godard’s later films, the dialogue and voice-overs create a poetic montage of overlapping images and quotations from works of literature, science, and philosophy. Godard takes these quotations and montages them into visual passages based on themes of art, film, and politics. Godard is cinema’s great mixer, and with his usual technique, he weaves together bits of music, images, spoken words, audio clips and his own voice narration tying everything together (or pulling everything apart).
Much of JLG/JLG was shot at his house in the Swiss town of Rolle, on Lake Geneva, which was the place where he finally died. Other sequences were shot outside his home, set in the region’s wintry lakes and forests. This provides a beautiful setting for the film’s episodes and Godard’s autumnal reflections on art, life and cinema. Godard died with euthanasia, a willed clear-cut decision, like everything else in his life.

Dokhuis NIGHT - GO GO TRASH
2022-10-13 18:00 - 23:00 | Dokhuis
Berlin based Gogo Trash is a colorful collective of free-thinking artists, that makes art in multiple disciplines, inspired by waste. They love to collect all kinds of (mostly plastic) garbage and upcycle this into unusual, eye catching and extreme costumes, wigs, decorations and other trash products.
Dressed up in their art work, they give unique performances where each member changes into a new and different character, hardly recognizable anymore, because of the alienating and comical effects of their plastic costumes.
The group improvises on different themes and situations, often related to overconsumption, pollution, but also social political themes.

JONAS WILL BE 25 IN THE YEAR 2000 (1976)
(Jonas qui aura 25 ans en l’an 2000)
Directed by Alain Tanner
116 minutes
In French with English subtitles
There are a few films which for me are almost like good friends. Films that few other people know about, but which I have seen dozens of times, and which warm my heart and inspire me creatively every time I see them. Jonas is one of those rare films. When it was released, Jonas qui aura 25 ans en l’an 2000 was the most successful Swiss film ever made, with over two million viewers worldwide. But since then, it’s been totally deleted from film history, as has been the director.
Swiss director Alain Tanner conjured up this sublime treasure along with the great British writer John Berger. This film looks at the lives of eight people after the collapse of the May revolution of Paris in 1968. It elegantly captures the zeitgeist of 1975, seen through individual lives of some Genevans who, in minor ways, attempt to keep the spark of rebellion and collectively alive as their dreams from 1968 fade away, facing the cold-blooded reality of the 1970s. It specifically revolves around the principle question: how does one stay true to one’s dreams and still survive in a world without dreams? This film opens up a whole bag of questions about how our world functions and how society deals with the creative process.
Rich with thoughtful conversations and insights, Tanner’s films are a blend of documentary and fable. The musical score by Jean-Marie Senia is exquisite and considered by some to be one of the finest scores written for cinema. It’s been said that this film combines the political commitment of Godard with the humanistic naturalism of Jean Renoir.
With the sound and fury of Hollywood blockbusters raging in the background, what a relief to know that small gems of cinema like this were ever made. But that makes the crime that they are NEVER shown even worse! In the current state of affairs, this film is more relevant today than ever…. and it’s such a treat to watch a film where people have real conversations about real things, rather than dialogue written because of some absurd plot. Starring one of my favorite actresses, Miou-Miou (Les valseuses).
Let’s face it…. the world is in a mess. Maybe it’s time to get back to relevant cinema again.
Free screening.

2022-10-29 11:00 - 2022-10-30 22:00 | Dokzaal & Dokhuis galerie, Plantage Doklaan 8, Amsterdam, 1018CM, Netherlands
We zijn terug voor de 6e jaarlijkse Anarchistische boekenbeurs Amsterdam!
Ook dit jaar is het een meerdaags evenement met stands en workshops van Anarchistische collectieven uit de wijde omgeving. We hebben er zin in!
Zoals voor iedereen wel duidelijk is, is dit een jaar tegemoet met veel economische perikelen, geopolitieke onrust, stijgende prijzen van voedsel en basisbehoeftes en maatschappelijke turbulentie. In deze condities is het net zo belangrijk – zo niet belangrijker – om te werken aan levensvatbare alternatieven op de status quo. De boekenbeurs is een gelegenheid om te leren over politiek conflict dicht bij huis, in de geschiedenis en in andere delen van de wereld. Laten we samen leren en werken om een wereld mogelijk te maken zonder staten, grenzen, ecocide en kapitalisme, en zonder het geweld wat dat mogelijk maakt. Kennis, zoals ze zeggen, is kracht.
Ben je op zoek naar gemeenschap, diepe gesprekken, of gelijkgestemde personen of collectieven? Kom dan naar de Anarchistische Boekenbeurs Amsterdam! Ben je op zoek naar Anarchistische boeken of zines? Dat hebben we, en zo veel meer! Kleding, buttons, uitgevers, distro’s, workshops, praatjes en veganistisch eten! Kom gezellig langs!
Meer informatie over deelnemende collectieven, stands en workshops, net als logistieke informatie over de dagen zelf volgt nog, hou daarvoor onze kanalen in de gaten!

THE WAR AT HOME 1979
Directed by Barry Alexander Brown, Glenn Silber
100 minutes
In English

This is such an important film, a document from the past about social change. I’m often asked where I came from…. Well my whole life I was moving…. But the place I went to university was a city called Madison Wisconsin. During the late 60s and early 70s it was a hotbed of social and cultural unrest, especially active in the strong anti-war movement. This documentary focuses on the counterculture movement in Madison, and some of my teachers were even involved with the making of this film.
One of the beautiful aspects of this flick is in watching how a movement that begins with only a few hundred people, grew into a mass movement. We see the numbers grow, and we also see the police, even the army, being brought in to handle the situation. The Madison university campus became a battleground. The film also debates the issue of violence, and whether violence should be used in an anti-war movement. Along the way we have some great music from that time, and some major players in the field including the beat poet Allen Ginsberg. It was a groundbreaking film when it hit the movie screens, and was nominated for an Academy Award in 1980. Personally, I think it is crucial viewing for anyone who wants to create real direct-democratic change, no matter what issue is being addressed.
By the way, the co-director Barry Alexander Brown would later go onto editing several Spike Lee joints such as Do the Right Thing.
I’m not a fan of Micheal Moore, but he did say this was one of the most important movies ever made.
What can I say? It’s a crime it isn’t being seen these days. Wanna see the trailer? Click here
