<-- back Juliana Fredman Safety Orange + Bidam Sonntag, 7. November 2004, 21 Uhr Pirate Cinema / Raum 3 / Bootlab Ziegelstrasse 20, Berlin-Mitte -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Pirate Cinema Berlin und die Kino-Hotel-Gruppe Raum 3 stellen am Sonntag zwei Filme der New Yorker Dokumentar-Filmemacherin Juliana Fredman vor. "Safety Orange" (in Kollaboration mit Jim Davis, 2001, 60 Minuten) ist ein Dokumentarfilm über das US-amerikanische Gefängnissystem, "Bidam" (in Kollaboration mit Dan O'Reilly Rowe, 2004, work in progress) ihr aktuelles Filmprojekt über die medizinische Versorgung in Palästina. Juliana Fredman ist zu Besuch in Berlin und wird anwesend sein. Danach gibt es wie immer eine Bar, sowie die Option, Filme auf CD zu kopieren. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Safety Orange Jim Davis and Juliana Fredman, 2001, 60 Minutes By now we have all heard the staggering statistics on the American justice system. 25% of the world's prisoners, over 2 million incarcerated, 6 million under some type of legal supervision, and hundreds of thousands locked up in facilities which are run by private companies. Beginning with the deaths following the Attica uprising thirty years ago, Safety Orange explores the radical changes in public policy that have wrought poor neighborhoods as war zones and public schools as decrepit gulags with random searches and few windows. The film revolves around how the architecture of the prison and that of the school have collapsed into one another as the architects themselves have moved from building hospitals and schools in the 70s and early 80s to building prisons in the last fifteen years, as public funds for the former dried up. This policy process is explained through graphic elements and interviews and is understood by the term "from welfare to warfare". The film accompanies a Fresno anti gang police task force whose job is to register youths as gang members and ends on a bus from NYC to Attica with women going to visit loved ones incarcerated there. Safety Orange is a documentary which looks deep into the culture of the American criminal justice system. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Bidam (With Blood) Dan O'Reilly Rowe and Juliana Fredman, 2004, work in progress Bidam (With Blood) observes the lives of health workers and their patients in the cities, rural villages, and refugee camps of the West Bank and the Gaza Strip. This film starkly reveals the extent to which the Israeli occupation is systematically rendering the delivery of health services to Palestinians practically impossible. Using personal situations to demonstrate the effects of political policy and military actions, the documentary offers general audiences a way to approach what is often seen as an impenetrable political struggle. Specifically, the documentary will investigate the effect of closure and siege on access to health care, numerous instances of direct attacks on medical personnel, vehicles, and facilities, the effects of pollution in the form of waste from settlements on neighboring Palestinian communities, and the serious consequences of social erosion and trauma on mental health. By focusing on civilians and health workers, we hope to draw attention to the compelling stories of ordinary people's struggle to overcome extraordinary obstacles in the pursuit of routine health care. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- () + //\\ >< + |||| pirate cinema berlin + kino-hotel www.piratecinema.org + raum 3 <-- back |
