Cinema, Nation, and Empire in Uzbekistan, 1919-1937
Favs/dislikes: 1:0. Between the founding of Soviet Uzbekistan in 1924 and the Stalinist Terror of the late 1930s, a nationalist cinema emerged in Uzbekistan giving rise to the first wave of national film production and an Uzbek cinematographic elite. In Cinema, Nation, and Empire in Uzbekistan Cloé Drieu uses Uzbek films as a lens to explore the creation of the Soviet State in Central Asia, starting from the collapse of the Russian Empire up through the eve of WWII. Drieu argues that cinema provides a perfect angle for viewing the complex history of domination, nationalism, and empire (here used to denote the centralization of power) within the Soviet sphere. - List of features included in bibiliography -
A Cuban Cinema Companion
Favs/dislikes: 1:0. With the recent shift in Cuba-US relations stemming from the relaxing of travel restrictions and an influx of American visitors, interest in Cuba and its culture has increased substantially. A new emphasis has been placed on the island country’s many cultural and artistic achievements, specifically in film. Cuban cinema is recognized around the world as having produced some of the most celebrated works originating from Latin America—such as Fresa y Chocolate and La Muerte de un Burócrata—as well as many prominent artists—including directors Tomás Gutiérrez Alea and Humberto Solás. In A Cuban Cinema Companion, editors Salvador Jimenez Murguía, Sean O’Reilly, and Amanda McMenamin have assembled a collection of essays about more than 100 films across six decades, including feature films, documentaries, and animation. These entries also provide information on directors, actresses, and actors of Cuban cinema. Entries range from films like Retrato de Teresa to Buena Vista Social Club and include descriptions of each film’s plot, themes, and critical commentary, as well as comprehensive production details and brief suggestions for further reading. Beginning with the victory of the Cuban revolution—from the first ten years of what is often referred to as Cuba’s “Golden Age” of film to the present—this volume offers readers valuable insights into Cuban history, politics, and culture. An indispensable guide to one of the great world cinemas, A Cuban Cinema Companion will be of interest to students, academics, and the general public alike.

Films and videos in the guide vary in genre from classic feature films to independent and community-produced documentaries, short fiction, and experimental video art.

Viewing African Cinema in the 21st Century
Favs/dislikes: 0:0. Title: Viewing African Cinema in the Twenty-First Century: Art Films and the Nollywood Video Revolution Author(s): Mahir Saul, Ralph A. Austen Publisher: Ohio University Press City: Year: 2010 ISBN: 0821419307, 9780821419304 African cinema in the 1960s originated mainly from Francophone countries. It resembled the art cinema of contemporary Europe and relied on support from the French film industry and the French state. Beginning in1969 the biennial Festival panafricain du cinéma et de la télévision de Ouagadougou (FESPACO), held in Burkina Faso, became the major showcase for these films. But since the early 1990s, a new phenomenon has come to dominate the African cinema world: mass-marketed films shot on less expensive video cameras. These “Nollywood” films, so named because many originate in southern Nigeria, are a thriving industry dominating the world of African cinema. Viewing African Cinema in the Twenty-first Century is the first book to bring together a set of essays offering a unique comparison of these two main African cinema modes.

Caribbean Film Database's Caribbean Classics
Favs/dislikes: 3:0. The Caribbean Film Database includes a section of classic films. These are films that live on from generation to generation because they are exceptionally well-made and reflect universal stories that transcend their period. There is a rich cinematic history in the Caribbean consisting of films from throughout the region that have not necessarily had wide-scale distribution or reached international audiences. Some films from our selection are more well known—The Harder They Come from Jamaica, for example—but other equally well-crafted films like Ava and Gabriel from Curaçao or One People from Suriname have had less recognition. In an effort to provide more exposure to the history of Caribbean filmmaking, we present the following selection of Caribbean Classics.

AMP's 10 Mongolian Films Worth Watching
Favs/dislikes: 1:0. As we have mentioned before in our review of films from the country, Mongolian cinema has been taking gradual steps towards a very interesting path, away from the exotification of the country, which usually revolves around stories taking place in green fields, and instead dealing with contemporary themes, which, most of the time, take place in the urban centre. This effort, which is mostly driven from two companies, Mongolfilms Distribution and The Filmbridge has resulted in a number of very intriguing productions, which also, finally, move also towards genre paths, apart from arthouse ones. In this article, we present ten of the most noteworthy, once more with a focus on diversity, in reverse chronological order.
