This reflects a sophisticated understanding of the Union’s role in the audiovisual field, namely one that recognizes that competitiveness and cultural diversity can be complementary and mutually enhancing rather than opposing forces." - Evangelia Psychogiopoulou ℹ️ #REBOOT project focuses on the European Film industry, aiming to connect the existing strengths, identify and overcome weaknesses and plan for future competitiveness in the fields of policy, practice and experience. 🔗 You can find further information on the project here: https://lnkd.in/dXgvgP5q #filmindustry #Europeanfilmsector #competitiveness

The Association of Ukrainian Women in Belgium cordially invites you to the series of #Ukrainian film screenings in #Brussels, Belgium. From Wednesday, February 14th, to Wednesday, May 8th, Comité belge du Réseau européen de solidarité Ukraine is organizing a Ukrainian film festival at the Université libre de Bruxelles. Six movies have been selected, showcasing the diverse landscape of Ukrainian cinema. This includes two classics from the sixties produced in Soviet Ukrainian studios, two recent fiction films, and two recent documentaries. These films aim to immerse viewers in the Ukrainian perspective, providing insight into the strength and tensions within Ukrainian society. They also seek to explain that the current war is not just about territorial conquest by Russia but is also a conflict aimed at dismantling a society perceived as an existential threat by the Kremlin due to its diversity. Each film screening will be followed by a discussion, and when possible, filmmakers will participate via video conference. Additionally, concrete solidarity projects with Ukraine will be presented. All screenings take place in auditorium AZ1.301 (Building A on Franklin-Roosevelt Avenue), with free entry. A voluntary contribution will be requested, and the entire amount will go towards concrete solidarity projects in Ukraine. The films will be shown in their original language (Ukrainian or Russian) with French subtitles. The initiative received funding from the ULB Cultural Commission and was supported by the Dovjenko Center in Kyiv. More details at: https://lnkd.in/eBaQke33

Onke Dumeko, from the National Film and Video Foundation, shares her thoughts post panel discussion on the state of the South African Audio Visual Industry. "Thank you so much to you and your committed team for organising and planning the panel discussion. Arguably, it's quite a challenging topic purely because of the reality that, while incredible strides have been made, the state of the industry is not what it should be nearly 30 years into democracy. As a single industry that would solve so many of the country's fundamental challenges, this industry is the best example of a multiplier effect industry we have in the country which unfortunately is yet to be invested in at the level that it should be. I have no doubt that this won't be the case forever and that at some point our film industry will not only match but exceed the value, impact and influence of the very industries we look to as best-practice examples today. That we have national and provincially based institutions committed to building it regardless of the relatively little available funding currently, will one day serve as a hallmark of the industry's legacy. It's always an honour to engage in the way in which we did and more importantly to listen to and learn from strides made by other institutions because there really is no development without understanding. Thank you for an awesome experience." To watch the full session follow the link: https://lnkd.in/drW7-J6P #DFMInsights #SouthAfricanFilmmakers #Testimonial

Since its creation in March of 2022, the IWM's Documenting Ukraine program has supported more than 300 projects of Ukrainian scholars, journalists, public intellectuals, artists, and archivists. Behind each project—whether it is a documentary film, a book, or a policy paper—are people who bring those ideas to life. With a series of videos, we want to spotlight the amazing work of these "full-time" Ukrainians: https://lnkd.in/dRsCKF8x

So moved by this film, The 1 Field. Imagine "1 Peace between science and spirituality, Israelis and Palestinians, East and West, heart and mind, human beings and the universe..." It's possible, everyone! I read Lynne Mctaggart's books a few years ago, and this film is a great follow up! https://lnkd.in/g5Wn-CrN
