A film by Paul Mazursky
Contact: Juliet Birch

< jburch@brandeis.edu >
< www.jewishfilm.org/catalogue/films/yippee.htm >
Rabbi Nachman of Breslov (1772-1810), the great-grandson of the Baal

Shem Tov, founder of the Hassidic movement in Judaism, is buried in Uman,
Ukraine. Each year there is a major pilgrimage of Breslover Hassidim and
others, who travel to Uman to celebrate Rosh Hashanah near the Rebbe’s
gravesite. This custom dates back to the very beginning of the Breslov
movement, when Rabbi Nachman’s followers would gather with him on
Rosh Hashanah each year. During the Communist years, it was very difficult
for Jews to travel to Uman but, with the fall of the USSR in 1989, it became
possible to make the pilgrimage again. Filmmaker Paul Mazursky travelled
with them to record an event at which 25,000 Hassidim sing, dance, pray
and celebrate life.

PANEL FILM 2
Merica
Italy, 2007
(65 minutes)

Directed by
Federico Ferrone, Michele Manzolini, Francesco Ragazzi
In Portuguese, Italian, and Veneto dialect,

with English subtitles
Contact:
< Francesco Ragazzi, francesco.ragazzi@sciences-po.org >
The film investigates the complexities of migration and sense of national

belonging, using the parallel stories of the historical Italian emigration
to Brazil and the current Brazilian ‘return’ migration to Italy. Though
they generally hold an Italian passport and feel a strong attachment to
and national pride for Italy, these “return immigrants” face considerable
challenges in a country still plagued by the difficulty of integrating
“outsiders”. Why is this the case? Why aren’t they recognized as Italians?
If it is not nationality, what is it exactly that creates a sense of belonging
within a society? Which are the criteria for belonging? Is it about ‘blood’
or about the project of living together in one territory? By comparing the
great Italian emigration of the 1800’s and the immigration which Europe is
experiencing today through the lives of these returning migrants, the film
aims at providing a certain number of paths to answer these questions.

PANEL FILM 3
Around Mostar, the Bridge and Bruce Lee
Italy, 2007

Directed by Sanja Puljar
(U of Rijeka, Croatia)
and Vanni D’Alessio
(U of Naples Federico II, Italy)
Sanja Puljar’s and Vanni D’alessio’s documentary investigates post-war

Mostar and its negotiations with the past and the future among three
national communities: Muslim (Bosniak), Croatian, and Serbian. Each of
them fought with each other in the war, and all of them are forced to
live together after the war (although the Serbian community has been
reduced to a few people). The film talks about a divided town in a new
form of multinational unstable state, in which there are mixed local, supra-
local and international trends towards integration, centralization and
separation. The symbol of the Ottoman imperial heritage (the Old Bridge),
which underwent a process of Muslim/Bosniak nationalization, is compared
to the Bruce Lee monument, which was placed as a global pop icon against
the national discourses, and his memory as a shared space opposed to the
intensive nationalization of the public monuments and memory.
Ana Devic < U of Glasgow, UK, Ana.Devic@lbss.gla.ac.uk > will lead the

discussion after the screening.

Dimitri Kitsikoudis < kitsikoudis@mailbox.gr >
hree anthropologists, a historian, an islamist and a lot of Pomaks guide

us to the mountain range of Rhodope in the Balkans so that we may get
familiar with the population of the Pomaks, their history, their culture, their
problems, their fears and their hopes. The Pomaks live in the mountains of
Rhodope, in Greece and Bulgaria, along the borders. Their language is south-
slavic and their religion is Muslim. Their origin has not been scientifically
documentated. They determine themselves as Greeks, Bulgarians, Turks and
European. Multiple or performative identity formation has been the only
way to escape conflict with neighbouring ethnic groups and govermental
as well as bilateral agreements between Greece and Turkey have led to their
social and economic marginalization. There is a typical proverb: “Beware
of the Turk’s shot, the Bulgarian’s beating the Greek’s pencil”, because
shooting and beating are forgotten, but the pencil does not forget.
Domna Michail (U of Western Macedonia, Greece, < dmihail@uowm.gr >)

will lead the discussion after the film, with the director Dimitri Kitsikoudis.
Ifigenia Vamvakidou (U of Western Macedonia, Greece

< ibambak@uowm.gr >) will present the paper “Critical Analysis of a

A Country Here, A Country There
Germany, 2005
(57 minutes)

Directed by
Monica Heintz and Alin Rus
Max Planck Institute for Social Anthropology
In Romanian/Moldovan with
English subtitles
Contact:
Monica Heintz < monica.heintz@u-paris10.fr >
Monica Heinz’s documentary film illustrates the intellectual and political

debates, and the everyday confusions linked to the Moldovan/Romanian
identity in the Republic of Moldova. The film exposes the elements that
determine the actual debate on national identity in Moldova (memories,
soviet legacies, the economic situation, migration, the situation of mass
media) and reveals new issues and concerns concerning new generations
and the future of the Moldovan state. Romanian-speaking Moldovans who
were publicly denying a Romanian identity through political actions are
shown to have, in private discussions, an unambiguous conscience of a
Romanian identity.

Slobodan Milosevic - Præsident Under Anklage/Milosevic On Trial
Denmark, 2007
(69 minutes)

A film by
Michael Christoffersen
In English and Serbian with

English subtitles
Nicknamed the Butcher of the Balkans, Slobodan Milosevic died of a heart

attack on 11 March 2006. With exclusive access the director follows the
key players in the specially-created UN tribunal. The key players are the
principal trial attorney, the English barrister Geoffrey Nice, on one side,
and on the other Milosevic’ advisers. The crew has been behind-the-scenes
from the beginning of the trial, in 2002. By following the players as the
trial unfolds and recording history as it happens, the film gives a unique
insight to the strategies and obstacles of the people involved, marking
their conflicts and victories.  The trial, of four years, against Slobodan
Milosevic was the longest war crimes trial before an international court,
and the most important since Nuremberg.
James Gow (King’s College (London, UK) < mlmajw@btinternet.com > will

lead the discussion after the screening.

(88 minutes)

Directed by

Contact:
Erin Owens, Thinkfilm,
< eowens@thinkfilmcompany.com >
A powerful, emotional and relevant reminder of the heartbreaking toll war

takes on the innocent; Nanking tells the story of the Japanese invasion of
Nanking, China, in the early days of World War II. After days of bombardment,
the city fell to Japanese forces, after which massive atrocities and rape were
committed by the occupying forces. The story is told through interviews
with Chinese survivors, archival footage and photos of the events, and
testimonies of former Japanese soldiers. At the heart of Nanking is a
filmed stage reading of the Westerners’ letters and diaries, featuring Woody
Harrelson, Mariel Hemingway and Jurgen Prochnow. Through its interweave
of archival images, testimonies of survivors, and readings of firsthand
accounts, the film puts the viewer on the streets of Nanking and brings the
forgotten past to life.

Areta Loyd’s documentary explores the impact of Ukraine’s 2004 Orange

revolution on democratic opposition groups in Belarus. This important
event raised hope for activists in the neighboring country who still battle
President Lukashenko’s authoritarian rule. The documentary analyses the
situation of the generally demoralized opposition and civil society prior
to the 2006 presidential elections and the cat and mouse game between
opposition activists and the police.

After A Lesson of Belarusian, shown at ASN 2007, Polish director Miroslav

Dembinsky returns with Music Partisans to a familiar theme, President
Aleksandr Lukashenko’s iron fisted reign in Belarus, this time seen from the
point of view of a number of Rock Bands. Dembinski interlaces their protest
songs with poignant archive images of, for example, the militia that hard-
handedly stopped protest marches. The film ends with the elections of
2006 that, as was expected, ended in a victory for Lukashenko.
