1
00:00:21,226 --> 00:00:24,089
Most films were
run by men.

2
00:00:24,190 --> 00:00:28,690
Most classic sayings
were run by men.

3
00:00:29,675 --> 00:00:34,165
But 13 decades ago, in all six
continents where films are made,

4
00:00:34,266 --> 00:00:37,304
thousands of women too
have directed films.

5
00:00:39,560 --> 00:00:41,550
Some of the best.

6
00:00:43,404 --> 00:00:45,150
What films did they make?

7
00:00:45,390 --> 00:00:47,729
What techniques did they use?

8
00:00:49,121 --> 00:00:52,110
What can we learn
about cinema with them?

9
00:00:52,506 --> 00:00:57,415
Let's revisit the films through
from the eyes of the directors.

10
00:00:58,960 --> 00:01:02,529
Let's make a new one
road movie through the cinema.

11
00:01:06,060 --> 00:01:08,489
WOMEN MAKE CINEMA

12
00:01:08,590 --> 00:01:12,960
A NEW ROAD MOVIE
THROUGH THE CINEMA.

13
00:01:17,706 --> 00:01:20,420
Suspense is one of the pillars
of cinema and TV.

14
00:01:22,833 --> 00:01:26,020
Every police series has it.

15
00:01:29,273 --> 00:01:30,980
But how to build it well?

16
00:01:31,786 --> 00:01:37,120
SUSPENSE

17
00:01:38,106 --> 00:01:40,766
Do you like each other?

18
00:01:41,273 --> 00:01:42,832
I hate her, she's a slut.

19
00:01:42,933 --> 00:01:46,626
She loves black people.
Her hand is black!

20
00:01:47,853 --> 00:01:50,172
Let's start
in an unusual place.

21
00:01:50,273 --> 00:01:53,880
Not in the thriller genre,
but in the documentary.

22
00:01:54,226 --> 00:01:55,719
Suspense in the real world.

23
00:01:55,820 --> 00:01:57,133
Shut up, please!

24
00:01:58,906 --> 00:02:00,820
Here you come, here you come.

25
00:02:04,566 --> 00:02:07,760
Raw images, out of the scene...

26
00:02:08,393 --> 00:02:12,566
A scene from the making of a film
amateur horror film, Demon Lover?.

27
00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:18,419
The director of the documentary,
Joel DeMott, captured the naivety

28
00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:20,319
and the arrogance of the filmmakers.

29
00:02:20,420 --> 00:02:22,279
But this happens.

30
00:02:22,380 --> 00:02:24,953
What the hell! I missed it.

31
00:02:25,326 --> 00:02:27,540
Terry told the three girls
to improvise,

32
00:02:27,706 --> 00:02:30,253
and they spread whipped cream
all over the room.

33
00:02:32,766 --> 00:02:34,866
Those stupid hippies.

34
00:02:37,566 --> 00:02:39,092
Calm down, Jeff.

35
00:02:39,193 --> 00:02:41,772
Look, Jerry,
This equipment is mine.

36
00:02:41,873 --> 00:02:44,073
And I don't want them to fill
my cream things.

37
00:02:44,260 --> 00:02:45,859
The cameraman was furious

38
00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:48,120
because the actors damaged
your equipment.

39
00:02:48,826 --> 00:02:51,466
Traveling camera. Absurd.

40
00:02:52,733 --> 00:02:55,360
And people represent
subtly into the camera.

41
00:02:55,893 --> 00:02:58,019
But we understand the tension
unmistakable image of a film

42
00:02:58,120 --> 00:02:59,713
when things go wrong.

43
00:03:00,860 --> 00:03:04,240
Damn, I'll have
What a change of bag!

44
00:03:05,626 --> 00:03:07,425
The camera bag
it was ruined.

45
00:03:07,526 --> 00:03:09,199
Okay, I want two hundred dollars
cash tonight

46
00:03:09,300 --> 00:03:11,406
to cover my loss.

47
00:03:11,933 --> 00:03:13,186
I'm serious.

48
00:03:13,373 --> 00:03:16,740
Okay, get your money, Jeff.
But stay calm!

49
00:03:16,946 --> 00:03:19,585
Dude, you... you know
which she didn't do on purpose.

50
00:03:19,686 --> 00:03:21,626
You shouldn't have done that.

51
00:03:21,940 --> 00:03:23,025
Shouldn't I have done this?

52
00:03:23,126 --> 00:03:24,860
Yes, it shouldn't
have thrown an attack.

53
00:03:25,780 --> 00:03:26,989
You can forget it.

54
00:03:27,090 --> 00:03:28,039
I want you in the movie, man.

55
00:03:28,140 --> 00:03:31,759
Look Don, this movie is
disorganized as hell.

56
00:03:31,860 --> 00:03:33,112
So do something for me.

57
00:03:33,213 --> 00:03:34,973
-What?
-Show me how to film it.

58
00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:37,732
I want... I don't know how to film this.
I don't make horror movies, Don.

59
00:03:37,833 --> 00:03:40,359
-Explain it to me?
-I already explained.

60
00:03:40,460 --> 00:03:41,812
-What about F numbers?
-Yes.

61
00:03:41,913 --> 00:03:43,045
Let me film it.

62
00:03:43,146 --> 00:03:45,005
Look, Don, I'm not going to stand by
crossed for a week and a half...

63
00:03:45,106 --> 00:03:47,293
Stay with me on filming
and I will pay double.

64
00:03:47,845 --> 00:03:48,845
When?

65
00:03:48,946 --> 00:03:52,779
I pay now.
I'll give you a thousand dollars.

66
00:03:52,880 --> 00:03:54,859
No, you don't.
I mean, that's not fair.

67
00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:56,393
Jerry, give me your money.

68
00:03:56,926 --> 00:03:58,005
Don, you don't.

69
00:03:58,106 --> 00:03:59,639
Okay, let's go to his house
to get the money.

70
00:03:59,740 --> 00:04:00,712
Don, no.

71
00:04:00,813 --> 00:04:02,719
I'll give you a thousand dollars
in cash now.

72
00:04:02,820 --> 00:04:05,013
Let me film or never
I'm going to finish the damn movie.

73
00:04:05,180 --> 00:04:07,152
Let me film it, friend.
I know what I want!

74
00:04:07,253 --> 00:04:11,400
Help me, Jeff.
Come on, help me!

75
00:04:13,393 --> 00:04:15,859
And here's another guy
of unexpected suspense.

76
00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:17,039
Trying to be a little more...

77
00:04:17,140 --> 00:04:19,799
Carol Morley's film
about Joyce Vincent,

78
00:04:19,900 --> 00:04:21,892
who died in his apartment
in London

79
00:04:21,993 --> 00:04:24,946
and whose body was not
discovered for years.

80
00:04:25,880 --> 00:04:28,073
Morley did Joyce's voice.

81
00:04:28,313 --> 00:04:31,266
Hello, my name is Joyce.
And that's cool!

82
00:04:32,306 --> 00:04:34,913
Hi, I'm Joyce.
And that's cool.

83
00:04:37,906 --> 00:04:40,172
It's strange,
doesn't sound like Joyce.

84
00:04:40,273 --> 00:04:42,799
See, that's it, isn't it?
Bring the person? life.

85
00:04:42,900 --> 00:04:47,399
You know, she's not talking
about pathologists,

86
00:04:47,500 --> 00:04:48,765
bodily fluids...

87
00:04:48,866 --> 00:04:52,646
People arguing
if she seemed like herself.

88
00:04:53,386 --> 00:04:56,166
Neutral background in warm tones.

89
00:04:56,506 --> 00:05:00,386
So we just focus
on the faces of the interviewees.

90
00:05:06,640 --> 00:05:10,419
When we met,
She wanted to be a singer.

91
00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:16,220
I had a recording studio
and I booked a session for her.

92
00:05:16,433 --> 00:05:20,400
As much as I loved Joyce,
She wasn't a singer.

93
00:05:23,326 --> 00:05:25,633
I said she could
mime in the background.

94
00:05:26,010 --> 00:05:29,425
No effort No effort.

95
00:05:29,526 --> 00:05:32,120
There is no reward No.

96
00:05:32,530 --> 00:05:34,840
Recreate a moment of hers.

97
00:05:36,033 --> 00:05:38,446
Joyce had a lovely voice.

98
00:05:38,660 --> 00:05:40,659
When I was a child,

99
00:05:40,760 --> 00:05:44,905
Did you already sing On a Summer?
by Shirley Bassey.

100
00:05:45,006 --> 00:05:47,189
Nobody is lying
in these moments,

101
00:05:47,290 --> 00:05:49,820
and not even the filmmaker is
playing tricks.

102
00:05:50,026 --> 00:05:53,773
They tell documentary filmmakers
that tell the story.

103
00:05:55,166 --> 00:05:57,366
But what if the story
not accepted?

104
00:05:58,206 --> 00:06:00,426
What if there is tension in truth?

105
00:06:01,253 --> 00:06:03,973
And if the memories test
its traction force?

106
00:06:05,490 --> 00:06:07,059
Effortlessly.

107
00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:08,119
There were many people.

108
00:06:08,220 --> 00:06:10,559
Girls, boys, adults...

109
00:06:10,660 --> 00:06:13,099
Anyone could be
at the playground.

110
00:06:13,200 --> 00:06:14,312
It was something automatic.

111
00:06:14,413 --> 00:06:15,772
There was a crowd
around Joyce

112
00:06:15,873 --> 00:06:17,932
who just appreciated
and she was a people pleaser.

113
00:06:18,033 --> 00:06:20,179
But he didn't show off.

114
00:06:20,280 --> 00:06:23,446
It was something he liked to do,
loved it and was good at it.

115
00:06:27,373 --> 00:06:29,305
Speaking of resistance and traction.

116
00:06:29,406 --> 00:06:32,453
How about a family
middle class going to dinner?

117
00:06:33,673 --> 00:06:37,305
They should be having fun,
enjoying the moment.

118
00:06:37,406 --> 00:06:39,213
We see the soft colors again.

119
00:06:39,893 --> 00:06:41,560
As if they were
in a fog.

120
00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:44,399
And the plan becomes broad
for a long time.

121
00:06:44,500 --> 00:06:47,540
No intimacy, no vivacity.

122
00:06:49,613 --> 00:06:52,080
-Pepper?
-Not yet, thank you.

123
00:06:53,020 --> 00:06:56,086
-Pepper, hand?
-Thank you my dear.

124
00:06:56,360 --> 00:06:57,673
Politeness.

125
00:06:58,206 --> 00:06:59,420
But then...

126
00:06:59,986 --> 00:07:01,600
This was not well prepared.

127
00:07:05,786 --> 00:07:08,153
-It's still pink in the middle.
-Same?

128
00:07:10,606 --> 00:07:14,386
Yes, it shouldn't be like that.
No, not really.

129
00:07:17,060 --> 00:07:18,639
Wait 25 minutes and then...

130
00:07:18,740 --> 00:07:19,732
Look!

131
00:07:19,833 --> 00:07:22,125
Angry about
the right way to cook something

132
00:07:22,226 --> 00:07:24,733
and the right way to complain.

133
00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:27,059
No need to say it's good
if not.

134
00:07:27,160 --> 00:07:28,585
We are paying,
then we can send it back.

135
00:07:28,686 --> 00:07:31,205
-It's good.
-Well, mine isn't good at all.

136
00:07:31,306 --> 00:07:32,853
A day of leisure together.

137
00:07:33,806 --> 00:07:39,579
A small evaluation arena,
expectations, discord, irritations.

138
00:07:39,680 --> 00:07:41,119
Well, if you're not satisfied
with that, then...

139
00:07:41,220 --> 00:07:43,059
Well it doesn't make sense
don't complain

140
00:07:43,160 --> 00:07:44,452
when are we going
to a restaurant together.

141
00:07:44,553 --> 00:07:45,766
Please!

142
00:07:46,120 --> 00:07:48,119
And when we look closely,

143
00:07:48,220 --> 00:07:50,766
we notice hard looks
through dissatisfaction.

144
00:07:51,279 --> 00:07:52,279
Are you all right?

145
00:07:52,380 --> 00:07:55,639
Hello, the meat is not
well cooked in the middle.

146
00:07:55,740 --> 00:07:57,440
-Right.
-Yes.

147
00:07:58,353 --> 00:07:59,589
I am really sorry.

148
00:07:59,690 --> 00:08:02,259
Do you want me to bring you a new one
or you?

149
00:08:02,360 --> 00:08:04,552
I think I'll choose
something else.

150
00:08:04,653 --> 00:08:05,953
Maybe have some soup.

151
00:08:06,486 --> 00:08:08,920
Because this is very dangerous.

152
00:08:09,500 --> 00:08:11,259
Mom, mom, don't want to send
your plate back?

153
00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:12,590
Mine is fine.

154
00:08:14,226 --> 00:08:16,189
No need to say it's good.
I'm sending mine back.

155
00:08:16,290 --> 00:08:17,385
I've already eaten some.
It's okay.

156
00:08:17,486 --> 00:08:18,693
Then it's okay.

157
00:08:19,780 --> 00:08:20,945
Here it is, thank you very much.

158
00:08:21,046 --> 00:08:23,289
-Okay, would you like to...
-Yes, a soup, great.

159
00:08:23,390 --> 00:08:25,359
-I am really sorry.
-Can I speak to the chef?

160
00:08:25,460 --> 00:08:27,389
Because it's really dangerous.
Thanks.

161
00:08:27,490 --> 00:08:29,613
-No problem. I'll call him.
-Thanks!

162
00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:34,645
You don't need
sit in silence.

163
00:08:34,746 --> 00:08:35,805
And you don't need to look at me

164
00:08:35,906 --> 00:08:37,259
as if I were
making a scandal,

165
00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:38,325
as if I embarrassed them.

166
00:08:38,426 --> 00:08:41,600
The cook...
It's not well cooked, it's dangerous.

167
00:08:43,553 --> 00:08:44,639
It would be nice to stay here

168
00:08:44,740 --> 00:08:46,926
no silent people
around me.

169
00:08:48,226 --> 00:08:49,433
It doesn't matter.

170
00:08:50,986 --> 00:08:53,020
With cutting looks
to Blue Steel?

171
00:08:53,220 --> 00:08:56,273
and the first sequence
of more generic voltage.

172
00:08:57,560 --> 00:09:00,773
The Cop by Jamie Lee Curtis
Look for a thief.

173
00:09:00,990 --> 00:09:03,833
There is a metal door leading
are service area.

174
00:09:05,790 --> 00:09:07,013
She checks...

175
00:09:19,886 --> 00:09:21,173
but he is not there.

176
00:09:29,946 --> 00:09:33,393
There is another door,
leading to the illuminated warehouse.

177
00:09:33,933 --> 00:09:35,180
Her point of view.

178
00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:42,586
Open the drawer, man!

179
00:09:45,160 --> 00:09:48,860
She peers through the shelves.
But he's not there.

180
00:09:49,660 --> 00:09:51,232
The music is underscore,

181
00:09:51,333 --> 00:09:53,319
but we realized
that the question here,

182
00:09:53,420 --> 00:09:56,086
one of the first
in tension and suspense,

183
00:09:56,720 --> 00:09:58,573
And where will this happen?

184
00:09:59,706 --> 00:10:03,020
The camera turns suddenly.
It's not here either.

185
00:10:03,680 --> 00:10:05,220
Our fifth space.

186
00:10:06,480 --> 00:10:08,992
What a slut! What does she know?

187
00:10:09,093 --> 00:10:11,652
And not here either,
our sixth space.

188
00:10:11,753 --> 00:10:12,986
But there is a body.

189
00:10:13,586 --> 00:10:15,046
We're getting closer.

190
00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:17,752
A high tone in the music,

191
00:10:17,853 --> 00:10:20,026
like the top rope
of a violin.

192
00:10:21,866 --> 00:10:24,080
The firmest and most tense rope.

193
00:10:28,393 --> 00:10:32,746
And finally, there he is,
in the seventh space.

194
00:10:34,180 --> 00:10:36,245
I'm not asking
Chinese food, man.

195
00:10:36,346 --> 00:10:37,573
Give me the money!

196
00:10:38,360 --> 00:10:39,445
That's it.

197
00:10:39,546 --> 00:10:42,133
And the change there.
Put the coins there!

198
00:10:45,066 --> 00:10:47,340
Don't even dare to breathe.

199
00:10:50,933 --> 00:10:52,473
All good.

200
00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:54,259
The idiot who acts brave
you're going to get screwed.

201
00:10:54,360 --> 00:10:56,040
Give me the bag, give me the bag.

202
00:10:59,540 --> 00:11:01,093
Are you kidding?

203
00:11:01,990 --> 00:11:04,340
You want to be funny,
you idiot?

204
00:11:05,090 --> 00:11:07,172
The heartbeat
of the baby are weak.

205
00:11:07,273 --> 00:11:08,999
What do you mean
with "weak"?

206
00:11:09,100 --> 00:11:14,539
-I'm going to check your dilation.
-There won't be a cesarean section?

207
00:11:14,640 --> 00:11:15,866
No.

208
00:11:16,480 --> 00:11:19,073
Put on the mask.
You need oxygen.

209
00:11:20,833 --> 00:11:22,692
You are fully dilated.
We have to deliver the baby now.

210
00:11:22,793 --> 00:11:26,179
The baby's head is
being pressed down.

211
00:11:26,280 --> 00:11:28,812
When the voltage is not on the spot
where will it happen,

212
00:11:28,913 --> 00:11:31,106
and, often, about the moment
in what will happen.

213
00:11:32,053 --> 00:11:34,840
In the Swedish film Hotel?,
by Lisa Langseth,

214
00:11:35,093 --> 00:11:37,306
Alicia Vikander does
the role of Erika.

215
00:11:38,153 --> 00:11:40,713
She's in labor,
but things are going wrong.

216
00:11:41,420 --> 00:11:43,239
We didn't leave the room,

217
00:11:43,340 --> 00:11:45,260
then we know
where it will happen.

218
00:11:45,813 --> 00:11:48,013
The tension comes from the moment
in what will happen.

219
00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:51,246
We can say
that will be traumatic.

220
00:11:55,120 --> 00:11:58,780
So we want it to end soon,
as she also wants.

221
00:12:02,406 --> 00:12:06,000
But cinema energizes
the moment, the time.

222
00:12:06,446 --> 00:12:09,393
The heartbeat beep is
the underscore soundtrack.

223
00:12:12,366 --> 00:12:15,340
The plans become increasingly
shorter and closer.

224
00:12:15,853 --> 00:12:17,820
There are more moments out of focus.

225
00:12:17,960 --> 00:12:19,532
There is more visual chaos,

226
00:12:19,633 --> 00:12:21,426
when people
they are stressed.

227
00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:30,793
The eyes move quickly,
the panic increases.

228
00:12:31,120 --> 00:12:32,953
They lose control.

229
00:12:48,466 --> 00:12:50,946
I'm going to count to ten
and everything will end.

230
00:12:54,480 --> 00:12:55,700
One...

231
00:12:59,766 --> 00:13:03,066
The tension of the moment can also
be done in the opposite way.

232
00:13:04,346 --> 00:13:06,020
Another hospital scene.

233
00:13:06,446 --> 00:13:08,753
It happens again
in the operating room.

234
00:13:10,880 --> 00:13:13,986
But the camera stays still,
and need.

235
00:13:14,160 --> 00:13:15,766
Almost mathematics.

236
00:13:17,593 --> 00:13:21,340
There is no attempt to express fear
or anxiety in your movements.

237
00:13:21,986 --> 00:13:25,553
But the woman counting hurts
anxiety, dread.

238
00:13:25,946 --> 00:13:28,346
And their calm is unsettling.

239
00:13:29,153 --> 00:13:30,386
Five...

240
00:13:32,613 --> 00:13:34,026
Just one detail,

241
00:13:34,390 --> 00:13:37,779
boy's feet in motion
express their anxiety and fear.

242
00:13:37,880 --> 00:13:39,093
Seven...

243
00:13:40,190 --> 00:13:41,753
A needle in the flesh.

244
00:13:42,633 --> 00:13:46,260
Our nervous system reacts
the threat of pain or injury.

245
00:13:48,333 --> 00:13:49,640
Eight...

246
00:13:53,060 --> 00:13:55,440
The whisper when saying ten...

247
00:13:56,353 --> 00:13:57,560
Ten...

248
00:14:00,066 --> 00:14:01,765
Someone completely under control.

249
00:14:01,866 --> 00:14:05,053
It's so scary
as someone out of control.

250
00:14:11,006 --> 00:14:12,653
Metal on the skin again.

251
00:14:13,226 --> 00:14:15,713
In The Wayward Girl?
by Edith Carlmar,

252
00:14:15,820 --> 00:14:17,666
the couple wants to kill a sheep.

253
00:14:18,913 --> 00:14:22,232
Liv Ullman's title character
has a knife and an axe.

254
00:14:22,333 --> 00:14:23,700
Double cut.

255
00:14:23,860 --> 00:14:25,953
And in the background, the darkest sounds
of string instruments.

256
00:14:26,066 --> 00:14:27,966
Violins raise their tone.

257
00:14:31,213 --> 00:14:33,760
Seven short plans
fragment the scene.

258
00:14:34,980 --> 00:14:36,313
He pauses.

259
00:14:36,560 --> 00:14:39,886
The softness of the sheep,
the solidity of the axe.

260
00:14:40,260 --> 00:14:43,380
The tension of the moment lengthens time
like melted mozzarella.

261
00:14:44,566 --> 00:14:46,000
A second pause.

262
00:14:46,226 --> 00:14:48,753
Postponed pain is doubled pain.

263
00:14:56,780 --> 00:14:58,853
A dagger I see now?

264
00:14:59,340 --> 00:15:01,300
And the knife is out of focus.

265
00:15:09,013 --> 00:15:10,920
All good! It's okay!

266
00:15:11,666 --> 00:15:13,033
You can't go through there.

267
00:15:13,593 --> 00:15:15,119
Turn around, keep walking,
thank you!

268
00:15:15,220 --> 00:15:17,579
Left please
go around the barrier.

269
00:15:17,680 --> 00:15:19,025
I think he's between
the first and second...

270
00:15:19,126 --> 00:15:20,486
Another concentrated scene
at the moment.

271
00:15:20,590 --> 00:15:22,313
Time stretches
like melted mozzarella.

272
00:15:22,873 --> 00:15:24,599
The debut film,
by Mimi Leder,

273
00:15:24,700 --> 00:15:28,293
one of the main directors
from the TV drama Plantão Mdico.

274
00:15:30,006 --> 00:15:31,346
Come on, come with daddy.

275
00:15:31,880 --> 00:15:35,340
A vengeful Yugoslav has a
nuclear device in backpack.

276
00:15:38,346 --> 00:15:39,906
A police sniper.

277
00:15:40,366 --> 00:15:43,359
George Clooney sends the policeman
special ops shoot.

278
00:15:43,460 --> 00:15:44,759
The area is not clean,
there are many innocents.

279
00:15:44,860 --> 00:15:46,266
Number four,
here is the leader, shoot.

280
00:15:46,440 --> 00:15:48,040
There is a child, a family.

281
00:15:48,980 --> 00:15:50,673
Got it, shoot him.

282
00:15:50,873 --> 00:15:54,005
But only the shooter can see
that he doesn't have a clear aim.

283
00:15:54,106 --> 00:15:57,889
He can kill a child.
The pressure is weighing on him.

284
00:15:57,990 --> 00:16:00,060
I repeat, shoot the target.
Shoot him!

285
00:16:02,780 --> 00:16:04,846
There is an internal debate.

286
00:16:07,753 --> 00:16:09,053
My God!

287
00:16:09,180 --> 00:16:11,093
Damn, someone has
than shoot him!

288
00:16:11,486 --> 00:16:14,560
And as director Leder leaves us
see what he sees,

289
00:16:14,690 --> 00:16:17,639
our mirror neurons make us
feel some of his anxiety,

290
00:16:17,740 --> 00:16:20,000
your indecision
and the pressure suffered.

291
00:16:25,613 --> 00:16:27,552
Four people at one time.

292
00:16:27,653 --> 00:16:29,933
Five if you count
the viewer.

293
00:16:32,406 --> 00:16:33,739
We need to get through here.

294
00:16:33,840 --> 00:16:36,886
Yes, you and the rest of NY. Stay
calm down, okay? But get out of here.

295
00:16:37,973 --> 00:16:43,459
In essential sectors
for future development.

296
00:16:43,560 --> 00:16:46,446
-It could be brief, Miss. Brower?
-For sure.

297
00:16:47,190 --> 00:16:48,919
The director's debut
Dutch Oscar winner,

298
00:16:49,020 --> 00:16:54,253
Marleen Gorris, it was one of the films
most tense and choleric at the time.

299
00:16:55,466 --> 00:16:58,825
Three women who are
condescending, silent,

300
00:16:58,926 --> 00:17:02,373
mistreated or humiliated
are pushed to the limit.

301
00:17:03,086 --> 00:17:05,066
A scene at the beginning
in the boardroom.

302
00:17:10,426 --> 00:17:13,406
The cut on your expressionless face
when she stirs the coffee.

303
00:17:19,966 --> 00:17:21,186
And this happens.

304
00:17:26,820 --> 00:17:28,920
And her head moves
like a robot.

305
00:17:29,566 --> 00:17:31,645
As if I were dead
in a place like that.

306
00:17:31,746 --> 00:17:33,686
Radioactive isotopes.

307
00:17:35,773 --> 00:17:38,200
Is there something we can
do about it?

308
00:17:39,240 --> 00:17:43,089
I would like to propose not to expand
of activities in West Africa

309
00:17:43,190 --> 00:17:46,333
because the prospects are
highly dubious.

310
00:17:48,033 --> 00:17:49,580
The camera approaches.

311
00:17:49,993 --> 00:17:51,986
And the synthesizer music
of the 80s begins.

312
00:17:52,213 --> 00:17:56,780
Pulsating, lively, a touch
Halloween, by John Carpenter.

313
00:18:00,226 --> 00:18:03,746
Let's go to your inner world.
She decided to act.

314
00:18:07,273 --> 00:18:08,853
Later,
She is in a store.

315
00:18:09,553 --> 00:18:13,020
Another woman,
owned by the store owner.

316
00:18:17,833 --> 00:18:19,532
Our first woman advances.

317
00:18:19,633 --> 00:18:20,846
There are no lines.

318
00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:22,793
A synthesizer
like heartbeat.

319
00:18:23,673 --> 00:18:26,246
The second woman steals
openly an outfit.

320
00:18:33,060 --> 00:18:35,820
The third woman appears.
She turns her head.

321
00:18:36,540 --> 00:18:39,260
As if they were being called
by an invisible force,

322
00:18:39,946 --> 00:18:42,260
as Close Encounters
of the Third Type.

323
00:18:58,886 --> 00:19:01,013
Then our first woman
steal something.

324
00:19:13,980 --> 00:19:16,179
The invisible force is
getting stronger.

325
00:19:16,280 --> 00:19:19,320
The strength of anger against men
and for being humiliated.

326
00:19:20,246 --> 00:19:21,980
These women improvise,

327
00:19:22,090 --> 00:19:25,493
inventing your story,
their protest as they continue.

328
00:19:37,246 --> 00:19:38,279
Moments later...

329
00:19:38,380 --> 00:19:39,760
They push the man.

330
00:19:39,953 --> 00:19:41,186
Slap...

331
00:19:44,380 --> 00:19:47,033
kick, cold violence.

332
00:19:47,400 --> 00:19:49,380
There are none
volcanic eruption here.

333
00:19:54,806 --> 00:19:57,365
The music is outdated
or expressive in a way

334
00:19:57,466 --> 00:19:58,733
that women are not.

335
00:20:06,473 --> 00:20:08,300
A clothing store
full of weapons.

336
00:20:31,346 --> 00:20:35,580
As disturbing as a movie
by Brian De Palma or Martin Scorsese.

337
00:20:47,573 --> 00:20:50,900
Where to go after Opposite Wives
in Conflict, by Gorris from the 80s?

338
00:20:52,520 --> 00:20:54,046
For Selma, perhaps,

339
00:20:54,600 --> 00:20:56,492
and a group of people
equally enraged.

340
00:20:56,593 --> 00:21:00,840
This summer we can focus
our actions in a building.

341
00:21:01,553 --> 00:21:04,646
A citadel,
defended by fanatics.

342
00:21:04,920 --> 00:21:06,460
The Selma Court.

343
00:21:07,660 --> 00:21:08,940
The perfect stage.

344
00:21:15,933 --> 00:21:18,353
Tension and fury form
a good team.

345
00:21:20,033 --> 00:21:23,546
But these people kneel
and place their hands behind their heads.

346
00:21:24,286 --> 00:21:26,913
Their tactic is the opposite
of the women in Beanies.

347
00:21:27,833 --> 00:21:30,359
These people are determined
to resist? violence,

348
00:21:30,460 --> 00:21:32,040
no matter how much they are provoked.

349
00:21:32,173 --> 00:21:36,725
Sheriff Clark, we tried to gain access
to the civil registry office,

350
00:21:36,826 --> 00:21:38,305
It's our right.

351
00:21:38,406 --> 00:21:40,979
There are many people,
you know very well.

352
00:21:41,080 --> 00:21:42,846
And the camera coming back
forward,

353
00:21:43,186 --> 00:21:47,946
as if to emphasize
control, rigor, discipline.

354
00:21:48,520 --> 00:21:51,660
Racial segregation is now illegal
in this country, sir.

355
00:21:54,833 --> 00:21:56,453
So we have the camera in our hand.

356
00:21:56,960 --> 00:21:59,366
And a lonely tone
on the soundtrack.

357
00:22:00,380 --> 00:22:01,739
Come on, clear the sidewalk.

358
00:22:01,840 --> 00:22:02,799
Clear the way!

359
00:22:02,900 --> 00:22:04,359
Get out of the way,
get out of the way!

360
00:22:04,460 --> 00:22:05,845
An elephant on a
china shop.

361
00:22:05,946 --> 00:22:08,412
Get out of the way.
Clear the sidewalk.

362
00:22:08,513 --> 00:22:10,145
I said to clear the sidewalk!

363
00:22:10,246 --> 00:22:11,739
-Okay, he's going to sit down.
-He can't sit down?

364
00:22:11,840 --> 00:22:12,832
Well, you have to learn.

365
00:22:12,933 --> 00:22:14,872
-He's going to sit down.
-Crap! So sit down!

366
00:22:14,973 --> 00:22:16,690
Father!

367
00:22:17,880 --> 00:22:20,540
The tension here is whether the volcano
can be contained.

368
00:22:20,645 --> 00:22:21,645
I told you that he
I couldn't sit down.

369
00:22:21,746 --> 00:22:23,819
-Well, what do we have here?
-Wait one moment.

370
00:22:23,920 --> 00:22:25,239
What's going on here,
boy?

371
00:22:25,340 --> 00:22:26,325
Jimmy, sit down!

372
00:22:26,426 --> 00:22:28,199
No, hand, I'll stay here.

373
00:22:28,300 --> 00:22:29,312
Jimmy!

374
00:22:29,413 --> 00:22:31,300
Tense like pressure.

375
00:22:31,560 --> 00:22:33,726
Like a stick
about to break,

376
00:22:33,920 --> 00:22:36,093
like a balloon
about to burst.

377
00:22:47,033 --> 00:22:48,853
Get that black girl!

378
00:22:50,326 --> 00:22:51,826
Get your hands off me!

379
00:22:54,806 --> 00:22:57,099
Wait, wait a second!

380
00:22:57,200 --> 00:22:59,346
Stop it!

381
00:23:08,313 --> 00:23:10,759
What a bad aunt!

382
00:23:10,860 --> 00:23:14,605
She deceives little children.

383
00:23:14,706 --> 00:23:16,579
Our final scene
in this chapter is

384
00:23:16,680 --> 00:23:20,753
from one of the great filmmakers
of tension, Kira Muratova.

385
00:23:21,186 --> 00:23:23,113
The tension of the real world,

386
00:23:23,506 --> 00:23:25,260
the hardest kind to watch.

387
00:23:27,800 --> 00:23:30,806
Young girls torment a man
with learning difficulties.

388
00:23:31,106 --> 00:23:33,646
They surround him, confuse him.

389
00:23:34,593 --> 00:23:37,980
One of Muratova's themes is
the cruelty of everyday life.

390
00:23:39,020 --> 00:23:41,719
Your anxiety increases
and ours too,

391
00:23:41,820 --> 00:23:43,780
as we witness their anguish.

392
00:23:50,420 --> 00:23:54,153
A young man intervenes,
Maybe he's a good Samaritan.

393
00:23:55,246 --> 00:23:57,659
Leave him alone.

394
00:23:57,760 --> 00:24:01,479
-Stop, he's sick.
-You are...

395
00:24:01,580 --> 00:24:02,913
But it's too violent.

396
00:24:03,706 --> 00:24:07,000
The screams make the scene
almost inaudible.

397
00:24:07,993 --> 00:24:09,172
Stop!

398
00:24:09,273 --> 00:24:11,360
Stop it!

399
00:24:16,600 --> 00:24:17,759
Help!

400
00:24:17,860 --> 00:24:19,253
Mean girls.

401
00:24:23,566 --> 00:24:24,813
And the chase...

402
00:24:28,606 --> 00:24:30,066
Help!

403
00:24:33,660 --> 00:24:34,953
I'll kill her!

404
00:24:35,900 --> 00:24:38,392
You disgusting!

405
00:24:38,493 --> 00:24:40,560
A man climbs out of a window.

406
00:24:40,690 --> 00:24:43,706
The screams increase
and we have chaos.

407
00:24:44,146 --> 00:24:46,320
Another act of violence.

408
00:24:49,346 --> 00:24:51,733
And another spectator glimpses
a tiny world...

409
00:24:52,606 --> 00:24:56,000
domestic, poor, cluttered.

410
00:24:56,660 --> 00:24:59,006
An entire society
about to explode.

411
00:25:23,933 --> 00:25:26,206
What happens
when the tension passes,

412
00:25:26,600 --> 00:25:30,306
when the violence passes,
when the threat ends.

413
00:25:31,320 --> 00:25:33,713
The adrenaline
and anxiety decrease.

414
00:25:34,253 --> 00:25:36,133
How does cinema show this?

415
00:25:36,560 --> 00:25:39,133
Inertia, stillness and calm.

416
00:25:40,133 --> 00:25:42,889
Films are often seen
as action entertainment,

417
00:25:42,990 --> 00:25:44,266
like thrillers.

418
00:25:45,053 --> 00:25:47,545
But what do they do when you
want to lower your pulse

419
00:25:47,646 --> 00:25:49,200
instead of speeding it up?

420
00:25:52,866 --> 00:26:00,020
IN�RCIA

421
00:26:03,306 --> 00:26:06,099
In chapter six,
we saw part

422
00:26:06,200 --> 00:26:09,220
from Places in Cities?,
by Angela Schanelec.

423
00:26:10,273 --> 00:26:11,880
Now the screen is black.

424
00:26:14,886 --> 00:26:18,720
A driving school instructor took
a young woman to his apartment.

425
00:26:22,393 --> 00:26:24,453
We assume that
They are having sex,

426
00:26:24,986 --> 00:26:27,293
but we don't see them,
we don't even hear them.

427
00:26:28,513 --> 00:26:31,813
Radically, Schanalec does not
shows none of the action.

428
00:26:32,833 --> 00:26:36,233
The hard black screen
about two minutes!

429
00:26:46,193 --> 00:26:47,673
Suddenly... Cut!

430
00:26:48,720 --> 00:26:52,313
It stays there, static.
The result.

431
00:26:53,293 --> 00:26:56,646
Inertia is what remains
when the action is stopped.

432
00:26:58,953 --> 00:27:03,946
And then we see him, also static,
also exhausted.

433
00:27:06,486 --> 00:27:10,253
Schanelec's film is similar
to that of Nanouk Leopold.

434
00:27:12,446 --> 00:27:14,473
A woman also ended up
to have sex.

435
00:27:15,026 --> 00:27:16,400
We are in India.

436
00:27:16,973 --> 00:27:20,252
Beginning of the day, when the sun
It's not too hot,

437
00:27:20,353 --> 00:27:22,125
when the traffic
It's not roaring,

438
00:27:22,226 --> 00:27:25,186
when the pulse of the city
It's not beating very fast.

439
00:27:28,240 --> 00:27:29,960
Wide static shot.

440
00:27:30,506 --> 00:27:34,172
We saw the actress' character
Sandra Huller alternating men

441
00:27:34,273 --> 00:27:36,166
and sexual encounters.

442
00:27:36,290 --> 00:27:38,266
But what is she
really looking?

443
00:27:44,066 --> 00:27:45,300
Maybe that's it.

444
00:28:02,760 --> 00:28:04,186
Maybe loneliness.

445
00:28:04,920 --> 00:28:07,700
Time to think,
time to feel.

446
00:28:08,333 --> 00:28:12,253
The calm after the storm
and before another storm.

447
00:29:05,633 --> 00:29:08,686
The film Astnicah Syndrome,
by Kira Muratova again.

448
00:29:09,300 --> 00:29:11,286
The whole film is a storm.

449
00:29:12,200 --> 00:29:13,359
About a society

450
00:29:13,460 --> 00:29:17,060
who has a disease,
a syndrome and anxiety.

451
00:29:20,633 --> 00:29:22,232
However,
watch these moments,

452
00:29:22,333 --> 00:29:23,986
which are rare in film.

453
00:29:24,740 --> 00:29:26,326
Still life.

454
00:29:26,753 --> 00:29:28,640
They are close-ups of an apartment.

455
00:29:29,346 --> 00:29:33,266
The camera doesn't move,
objects don't move.

456
00:29:36,593 --> 00:29:38,400
Like a photo album.

457
00:29:53,220 --> 00:29:56,620
And then this plan shows
that there is a point of view here.

458
00:29:57,773 --> 00:29:59,406
Man am I exhausted?

459
00:30:00,480 --> 00:30:02,693
He's had enough
from the busy city?

460
00:30:09,013 --> 00:30:11,099
He is fascinated by the banal,

461
00:30:11,200 --> 00:30:13,440
for everyday trinkets
What have you seen?

462
00:30:14,873 --> 00:30:17,053
Maybe "looking" is
the keyword here.

463
00:30:17,940 --> 00:30:20,079
The woman in India was
with eyes closed,

464
00:30:20,180 --> 00:30:25,546
but here, for him, inertia is
it's a simple matter of looking at the world.

465
00:30:25,990 --> 00:30:29,546
Not the great things,
but the common things.

466
00:30:57,933 --> 00:31:02,365
The Scottish director's short
Margaret Tait shows that inertia.

467
00:31:02,466 --> 00:31:04,353
It's not just a visual thing.

468
00:31:05,220 --> 00:31:09,953
The sound of bees captures us so much
as the images of poppies.

469
00:31:19,120 --> 00:31:22,233
As if the man on the couch
had gone to the garden.

470
00:31:22,953 --> 00:31:26,600
Bees are hardworking,
but he is the opposite of them.

471
00:31:26,960 --> 00:31:29,680
We are the opposite,
we are static.

472
00:31:30,073 --> 00:31:31,800
Our thoughts
were disconnected.

473
00:31:32,380 --> 00:31:33,859
Our senses do
the work...

474
00:31:33,960 --> 00:31:37,320
No instruments,
no equipment is required.

475
00:31:37,566 --> 00:31:39,866
Look, the light is there.

476
00:31:41,206 --> 00:31:44,965
Look at everything
that is illuminated by light

477
00:31:45,066 --> 00:31:51,733
and see the notes, songs,
the words, the colors and sleep.

478
00:31:52,746 --> 00:31:57,366
All colors and all dreams
are there in the beam of light.

479
00:32:01,500 --> 00:32:04,860
Of course, there are hundreds
of calm moments in films,

480
00:32:05,426 --> 00:32:09,006
but what happens if you join
inertia to other things?

481
00:32:09,566 --> 00:32:12,386
And if you put it
in unexpected places?

482
00:32:13,273 --> 00:32:16,373
This is what the Belgian director
Fien Troch does it here.

483
00:32:17,190 --> 00:32:20,480
A mother discovered
that your son ate sweets.

484
00:32:20,860 --> 00:32:23,593
She fights with him,
She gives him a punishment.

485
00:32:23,900 --> 00:32:26,166
But how does Troch film the scene?

486
00:32:27,713 --> 00:32:28,966
So...

487
00:32:33,626 --> 00:32:36,186
And the boy's brother covers his mouth.

488
00:32:37,080 --> 00:32:38,593
Frozen moments.

489
00:32:39,593 --> 00:32:41,393
Frozen by fear of mother?

490
00:32:45,086 --> 00:32:46,960
So the camera is on the run.

491
00:32:57,580 --> 00:33:00,213
Run away from your mother? Are you with the boy?

492
00:33:00,813 --> 00:33:03,333
A real escape or would you imagine it?

493
00:33:09,120 --> 00:33:13,593
And we see the boy alone,
stopped, static.

494
00:33:14,060 --> 00:33:17,026
A very innovative way
to show a scolding.

495
00:33:17,766 --> 00:33:20,526
An echo of the Scottish director
Bill Douglas.

496
00:33:51,620 --> 00:33:53,405
If Troch found
a creative way

497
00:33:53,506 --> 00:33:55,119
of filming a static encounter,

498
00:33:55,220 --> 00:33:57,726
the Dutch director
Marleen Gorris did the same.

499
00:34:00,400 --> 00:34:02,560
As we have already heard
in previous chapters,

500
00:34:02,860 --> 00:34:06,180
the murdered left woman
brutally a man I didn't know.

501
00:34:06,833 --> 00:34:09,260
The woman on the right
It's your psychiatrist,

502
00:34:09,420 --> 00:34:11,853
whose job is to do
a diagnosis of the killer.

503
00:34:16,773 --> 00:34:20,066
Their meeting is static,
has no words,

504
00:34:20,706 --> 00:34:22,933
like others in this chapter.

505
00:34:28,920 --> 00:34:31,353
But the patient begins
to do this.

506
00:34:51,766 --> 00:34:55,800
As if scanning
the psychiatrist, taking an X-ray.

507
00:34:57,166 --> 00:34:59,032
This moment can be static,

508
00:34:59,133 --> 00:35:03,500
But there's no relaxing here
or feel the moment.

509
00:35:04,513 --> 00:35:06,652
There's not much physical action here,

510
00:35:06,753 --> 00:35:10,473
but women analyze themselves
with great intensity.

511
00:35:48,713 --> 00:35:50,240
My wife left me...

512
00:35:53,620 --> 00:35:56,259
Chantal Akerman uses
inertia in cinema

513
00:35:56,360 --> 00:35:58,166
in an even more complex way.

514
00:36:00,213 --> 00:36:01,786
A static camera.

515
00:36:02,260 --> 00:36:05,046
A man is talking to a
woman who is off-screen.

516
00:36:05,526 --> 00:36:07,026
They were lovers.

517
00:36:07,793 --> 00:36:09,746
Now he's in front
from your own home.

518
00:36:10,046 --> 00:36:12,186
Almost no movement.

519
00:36:13,920 --> 00:36:16,113
He is talking
about his ex-wife,

520
00:36:16,546 --> 00:36:19,060
about your calm and static life.

521
00:36:20,453 --> 00:36:22,126
Everything seemed peaceful.

522
00:36:22,246 --> 00:36:25,526
It looked like we will pass
our lives together.

523
00:36:28,433 --> 00:36:33,713
True we spent weeks
lying side by side

524
00:36:33,926 --> 00:36:37,420
without feeling any desire,
but that didn't matter.

525
00:36:38,233 --> 00:36:39,660
And often...

526
00:36:41,726 --> 00:36:45,300
when I turned over to sleep,

527
00:36:46,086 --> 00:36:47,866
she cuddled against me.

528
00:36:48,326 --> 00:36:52,820
It was comforting
dissolve into it.

529
00:36:53,026 --> 00:36:56,073
Your smell, your flesh...

530
00:36:57,320 --> 00:37:02,880
What if she fell asleep first
and turn your back on me,

531
00:37:03,526 --> 00:37:06,352
I cuddled up against her

532
00:37:06,453 --> 00:37:09,733
and felt her round buttocks
in the cavity of my stomach.

533
00:37:13,130 --> 00:37:16,699
Maybe another director would have
moved the camera slowly,

534
00:37:16,800 --> 00:37:19,346
but Akerman stays
totally immobile.

535
00:37:21,853 --> 00:37:23,259
And so we have a story

536
00:37:23,360 --> 00:37:26,420
about static lives contained
in a static frame.

537
00:37:30,290 --> 00:37:32,680
And they ran away together.

538
00:38:02,766 --> 00:38:05,906
And if there isn't a story
Is it obvious within the frame?

539
00:38:07,120 --> 00:38:10,473
The American artist's film
Sharon Lockhart, Double Tide?.

540
00:38:11,226 --> 00:38:13,600
A woman looking for shellfish.

541
00:38:14,213 --> 00:38:15,692
She is involved
in your work,

542
00:38:15,793 --> 00:38:18,600
and doesn't notice the clouds
in motion.

543
00:38:19,366 --> 00:38:22,206
She's not resting either
and enjoying that moment,

544
00:38:22,460 --> 00:38:25,280
like a woman who lies down
on the balcony in India.

545
00:38:26,313 --> 00:38:28,146
But the image
You're resting, aren't you?

546
00:38:29,066 --> 00:38:31,380
And so, we also rest.

547
00:38:32,373 --> 00:38:34,660
The film lasts 99 minutes.

548
00:38:35,320 --> 00:38:39,993
People watch
an observation, a meditation.

549
00:39:24,426 --> 00:39:26,733
Will it rain or not?

550
00:39:33,520 --> 00:39:35,126
The birds are
flying around here.

551
00:39:36,400 --> 00:39:37,966
That means rain.

552
00:39:39,173 --> 00:39:40,966
It's going to rain soon.

553
00:39:42,033 --> 00:39:45,545
Another meditation.
We are in Paraguay.

554
00:39:45,646 --> 00:39:47,193
The sun is rising.

555
00:39:48,073 --> 00:39:49,946
The couple is just watching.

556
00:39:50,566 --> 00:39:53,686
No camera movement.
The moment.

557
00:39:54,260 --> 00:39:55,673
Almost Buddhist.

558
00:40:08,146 --> 00:40:09,893
Already autumn,

559
00:40:11,486 --> 00:40:12,766
but it's still hot.

560
00:40:15,440 --> 00:40:17,166
It's not that hot.

561
00:40:22,726 --> 00:40:25,833
Our child must
be dying of thirst.

562
00:40:28,873 --> 00:40:30,699
I wonder
if he is cold.

563
00:40:30,800 --> 00:40:32,473
Cold?

564
00:40:33,266 --> 00:40:34,773
But it's hot!

565
00:40:35,173 --> 00:40:37,726
Well, he took the poncho.

566
00:40:38,893 --> 00:40:40,340
I don't think you'll get cold.

567
00:40:44,853 --> 00:40:46,480
I miss him.

568
00:40:49,373 --> 00:40:50,786
I want him to come back.

569
00:40:52,586 --> 00:40:54,800
But another place
invades their moment.

570
00:40:55,493 --> 00:40:56,893
They think about their son...

571
00:41:06,986 --> 00:41:08,260
and then, in war.

572
00:41:08,780 --> 00:41:10,580
That disgusting war...

573
00:41:12,020 --> 00:41:13,440
It doesn't make sense.

574
00:41:18,266 --> 00:41:20,720
That dog never
will shut up!

575
00:41:21,380 --> 00:41:25,626
Inertia, a place
to stay and think.

576
00:41:25,900 --> 00:41:30,346
So swing the net
if it bothers you so much!

577
00:41:32,860 --> 00:41:34,666
The heat bothers me more.

578
00:41:35,393 --> 00:41:39,593
But you just said
which is not so hot.

579
00:41:49,160 --> 00:41:53,073
And, of course,
the greatest inertia of all...

580
00:41:53,846 --> 00:41:55,053
death.

581
00:42:00,473 --> 00:42:03,439
The director's first feature
Pakistani Sabiha Sumar,

582
00:42:03,540 --> 00:42:06,189
Silent Waters?, won
the best film award

583
00:42:06,290 --> 00:42:08,726
and best director
at the Locarno film festival.

584
00:42:13,946 --> 00:42:16,966
Sumar studied history
and political thought,

585
00:42:17,150 --> 00:42:20,520
so many of his films are
analyzes of social issues.

586
00:42:21,300 --> 00:42:24,820
We saw a scene from this movie
in chapter 11 about discovery.

587
00:42:25,786 --> 00:42:29,466
Now the character of Sumar
Gently roll up the scarf.

588
00:42:38,466 --> 00:42:40,173
The light of dawn
appears again.

589
00:42:40,800 --> 00:42:42,946
It looks like it was made
for inertia.

590
00:42:43,580 --> 00:42:45,246
A still life scene.

591
00:42:49,390 --> 00:42:51,793
Then we look
for the people of solitude.

592
00:42:56,360 --> 00:42:57,805
Then we are far away.

593
00:42:57,906 --> 00:43:00,460
We have another image
like a painting. So...

594
00:43:07,306 --> 00:43:08,540
The dark.

595
00:43:09,066 --> 00:43:11,126
The void. Her death.

596
00:43:15,750 --> 00:43:18,085
But death doesn't have to be
something so serious,

597
00:43:18,186 --> 00:43:19,640
as this scene shows.

598
00:43:30,513 --> 00:43:33,686
Wide frontal plane,
like a theater scene.

599
00:43:34,433 --> 00:43:36,546
Behind her
there is a mummified body.

600
00:43:37,266 --> 00:43:38,760
We are in Indonesia.

601
00:43:42,186 --> 00:43:43,746
We see a side shot.

602
00:43:43,926 --> 00:43:45,380
Theatrical again.

603
00:43:45,560 --> 00:43:47,073
At precise angles.

604
00:43:47,593 --> 00:43:50,353
Inertia directors love
rigorous geometry.

605
00:43:50,880 --> 00:43:53,340
No music, no dialogue.

606
00:43:53,620 --> 00:43:55,120
Almost no sound.

607
00:43:56,026 --> 00:43:58,226
Maybe a touch of Tarantino...

608
00:43:58,490 --> 00:44:02,486
But Mouly Surya's film has
a tone of black humor.

609
00:44:04,986 --> 00:44:06,500
How it shows!

610
00:44:25,766 --> 00:44:27,866
We now see a body without a head!

611
00:44:28,026 --> 00:44:30,013
A man who tried
rape a woman.

612
00:44:37,780 --> 00:44:41,806
The calm of this close-up.
Should we laugh now?

613
00:45:16,160 --> 00:45:17,466
Now the four of them are together.

614
00:45:17,713 --> 00:45:21,346
A broad picture,
macabre, aesthetic...

615
00:45:34,713 --> 00:45:36,906
Leaving the tranquility
for something similar.

616
00:45:37,606 --> 00:45:39,706
"Less is more", they say.

617
00:45:40,186 --> 00:45:42,033
How does this work in the movies?

618
00:45:42,793 --> 00:45:46,519
What happens when filmmakers
exclude things from scenes

619
00:45:46,620 --> 00:45:47,913
or the story on purpose?

620
00:45:51,266 --> 00:45:58,380
EXCLUSIVE

621
00:45:58,600 --> 00:46:01,165
When you run out of money,

622
00:46:01,266 --> 00:46:04,059
when you don't have
another penny.

623
00:46:04,160 --> 00:46:08,219
So sell everything,
settle the cattle and put an end to everything.

624
00:46:08,320 --> 00:46:11,646
Kira Muratova's brilliant film,
Chekov?s Motifs?.

625
00:46:12,033 --> 00:46:16,446
We heard a family fight.
It's been going on forever.

626
00:46:17,033 --> 00:46:20,006
But we just focus
in the baby of the family.

627
00:46:20,900 --> 00:46:22,846
Muratova leaves others
from outside in this scene.

628
00:46:23,340 --> 00:46:24,966
The storm around the child,

629
00:46:25,180 --> 00:46:26,759
the storm
which does not appear on the screen.

630
00:46:26,860 --> 00:46:28,766
A magnetic storm.

631
00:46:28,993 --> 00:46:32,619
Can't you see that I'm not there anymore
used to these things?

632
00:46:32,720 --> 00:46:38,046
I could handle it before,
but now I can't anymore.

633
00:46:38,200 --> 00:46:41,532
The child, who is falling asleep,
you hardly see or hear

634
00:46:41,633 --> 00:46:43,553
what is happening.

635
00:46:50,420 --> 00:46:52,520
See, that's what matters.

636
00:46:57,380 --> 00:46:58,613
Move your hand.

637
00:47:00,680 --> 00:47:03,846
Now we see a man,
in black and white again.

638
00:47:04,120 --> 00:47:06,485
It was filmed
from the same angle as the baby.

639
00:47:06,586 --> 00:47:09,253
But something very different
is happening here.

640
00:47:10,286 --> 00:47:12,026
He is a truck driver.

641
00:47:12,273 --> 00:47:14,533
A woman opens
the zipper of your pants.

642
00:47:14,920 --> 00:47:16,780
She starts to masturbate him.

643
00:47:17,086 --> 00:47:20,032
But director Chantal Akerman
does not show us the woman,

644
00:47:20,133 --> 00:47:22,233
neither the groin nor the action.

645
00:47:23,006 --> 00:47:24,960
Almost everything is excluded,

646
00:47:27,766 --> 00:47:30,260
including the feeling
of your racing pulse.

647
00:47:33,846 --> 00:47:35,680
It's getting hot.

648
00:47:39,160 --> 00:47:40,380
It's getting harder.

649
00:47:49,926 --> 00:47:52,620
As we saw in chapter 19
about sex,

650
00:47:53,190 --> 00:47:55,860
Akerman is certainly not afraid
to show sex scenes.

651
00:47:56,160 --> 00:47:58,779
But here she leaves out
the most obvious images.

652
00:47:58,880 --> 00:48:00,866
Therefore, we focus
on his face,

653
00:48:01,300 --> 00:48:06,013
in something rigorous, in a void,
like Andy Warhol.

654
00:48:13,390 --> 00:48:15,986
It will be very big
and break through the skin.

655
00:48:27,153 --> 00:48:28,860
Another black and white film.

656
00:48:29,646 --> 00:48:31,986
But we go back almost 50 years.

657
00:48:42,000 --> 00:48:44,993
Close-ups of the father-in-law and daughter-in-law.

658
00:48:47,413 --> 00:48:48,873
She retreats.

659
00:48:49,393 --> 00:48:51,566
Melodramatic performance of the time.

660
00:48:52,246 --> 00:48:53,693
He's going to rape her.

661
00:48:57,586 --> 00:48:59,073
But something happens.

662
00:49:00,213 --> 00:49:01,633
A bucket falls.

663
00:49:02,073 --> 00:49:05,826
And we cut to his wife,
who heard the commotion.

664
00:49:09,246 --> 00:49:12,020
We hope to return
? shocking part,

665
00:49:12,386 --> 00:49:14,639
but the director
Olga Preobrazhenskaya

666
00:49:14,740 --> 00:49:17,880
leaves us with his wife while
she slowly surveys the place.

667
00:49:29,566 --> 00:49:30,960
Are you in the rain?

668
00:49:40,113 --> 00:49:42,540
The horse shivering from the cold
made the noise?

669
00:49:49,993 --> 00:49:52,186
The textures of these images.

670
00:49:52,613 --> 00:49:56,866
Off screen, deleted,
the rape continues,

671
00:49:57,160 --> 00:49:59,000
while the search
of the wife follows.

672
00:50:08,533 --> 00:50:09,920
She goes to the door now.

673
00:50:10,240 --> 00:50:11,566
The crime scene.

674
00:50:25,120 --> 00:50:28,626
Her accusing look.
Their eyes meet.

675
00:50:38,846 --> 00:50:40,866
The assaulted woman
is in shock.

676
00:50:41,486 --> 00:50:42,973
And the image is blurred.

677
00:50:45,933 --> 00:50:49,153
Probably the rape was not
shown because of censorship,

678
00:50:49,613 --> 00:50:51,600
but also for a question
of teaching.

679
00:50:53,280 --> 00:50:57,126
Maybe the scene is richer
for his absence.

680
00:51:01,326 --> 00:51:03,546
Wadjda?, by Haifaa Al-Mansour.

681
00:51:06,326 --> 00:51:07,700
Girls at school.

682
00:51:08,300 --> 00:51:11,306
A world painted yellow
which looks like a prison.

683
00:51:14,253 --> 00:51:16,960
Let's change places,
men can see us here.

684
00:51:17,780 --> 00:51:20,259
Why? Are they supermen?

685
00:51:20,360 --> 00:51:23,993
If you can see them,
they can see it too.

686
00:51:24,273 --> 00:51:26,919
decent girls
flight in.

687
00:51:27,020 --> 00:51:29,700
The rest will stay here
where men can see them.

688
00:51:34,653 --> 00:51:37,466
Women must
become invisible in this world.

689
00:51:38,113 --> 00:51:40,580
And most girls
become invisible.

690
00:51:41,533 --> 00:51:43,313
Wadja, 10 years old, is not like that.

691
00:51:43,880 --> 00:51:45,480
She is visible.

692
00:51:45,820 --> 00:51:47,640
She doesn't want to conspire.

693
00:51:51,480 --> 00:51:53,912
As in the previous scene
from Russian film,

694
00:51:54,013 --> 00:51:56,846
what is not seen here
It has a feminist dimension.

695
00:52:11,480 --> 00:52:13,540
Where does a moment like this come from?

696
00:52:14,473 --> 00:52:15,700
Maybe from here?

697
00:52:17,280 --> 00:52:20,246
The Iranian film
The Sealed Soil? again.

698
00:52:20,886 --> 00:52:23,360
In chapter 18, about bodies,

699
00:52:23,513 --> 00:52:25,959
we saw the main character
take off your blouse

700
00:52:26,060 --> 00:52:28,746
and enjoy the feeling
of the rain on your skin.

701
00:52:29,640 --> 00:52:31,560
This scene happens before that.

702
00:52:32,393 --> 00:52:33,993
For more than half an hour,

703
00:52:34,413 --> 00:52:37,059
director Marva Nabili
refuses to show us

704
00:52:37,160 --> 00:52:38,653
the face of his people.

705
00:52:39,706 --> 00:52:41,573
Her camera here is wide,

706
00:52:41,866 --> 00:52:43,799
then it would be difficult
see the faces,

707
00:52:43,900 --> 00:52:45,573
but that's not all.

708
00:52:46,340 --> 00:52:48,693
There is a shady area
the left

709
00:52:49,086 --> 00:52:52,400
and in the bible it makes up the majority
It happens in the shadows.

710
00:52:52,973 --> 00:52:55,113
Then the woman sitting
is not visible.

711
00:52:58,346 --> 00:53:00,513
The person in red stands up

712
00:53:00,980 --> 00:53:03,813
and before that,
she was hardly seen.

713
00:53:12,360 --> 00:53:14,266
Distance and shadow.

714
00:53:14,480 --> 00:53:16,460
It's on the screen,
but also outside of it.

715
00:53:16,640 --> 00:53:18,333
Hidden inside the frame.

716
00:53:34,333 --> 00:53:37,792
He told me this,
So I did what I was told.

717
00:53:37,893 --> 00:53:40,012
Even my children had
have to do the same thing.

718
00:53:40,113 --> 00:53:42,973
Maybe this moment is
even more feminist.

719
00:53:43,380 --> 00:53:45,332
A girl and her mother
are talking.

720
00:53:45,433 --> 00:53:48,539
But it is not good to have circumcision,
someone could die.

721
00:53:48,640 --> 00:53:52,546
No, no, our culture allows
let there be circumcision.

722
00:53:52,680 --> 00:53:56,472
The eldest forced her daughter to
suffer female genital mutilation.

723
00:53:56,573 --> 00:53:58,325
I felt pain at the time.

724
00:53:58,426 --> 00:54:01,199
When she was being circumcised,
I called her: Mother, mother!

725
00:54:01,300 --> 00:54:03,565
Why did you tell me
to be quiet?

726
00:54:03,666 --> 00:54:06,339
Told you to be quiet,
because in our culture,

727
00:54:06,440 --> 00:54:09,740
the person surrounded
You must not cry or scream.

728
00:54:10,560 --> 00:54:13,005
A filming
of classic documentary.

729
00:54:13,106 --> 00:54:16,486
No extra lights, camera in hand.

730
00:54:16,820 --> 00:54:21,340
The mother does not apologize,
but he wants his daughter's forgiveness.

731
00:54:21,633 --> 00:54:24,612
This is our culture,
you cannot eliminate it.

732
00:54:24,713 --> 00:54:27,119
But you shouldn't follow
religion?

733
00:54:27,220 --> 00:54:30,019
Religion allows
circumcision.

734
00:54:30,120 --> 00:54:34,719
But it's not mandatory.
You can be circumcised or not.

735
00:54:34,820 --> 00:54:37,799
Yes, but I follow
Somali culture.

736
00:54:37,900 --> 00:54:39,679
I'm Somalian,
I have to follow my culture.

737
00:54:39,780 --> 00:54:41,419
This is the daughter's response.

738
00:54:41,520 --> 00:54:45,600
If you want me to forgive you,
do not circumcise Fartu.

739
00:54:46,112 --> 00:54:47,112
Fartu?

740
00:54:47,213 --> 00:54:50,493
-Then I won't circumcise her.
-Okay, I forgive her.

741
00:54:50,893 --> 00:54:52,353
She forgave her.

742
00:54:53,166 --> 00:54:55,786
She uses her power
to remove something.

743
00:54:56,206 --> 00:54:58,466
Removes the threat from your sister.

744
00:54:59,520 --> 00:55:01,119
We see a contract being born.

745
00:55:01,220 --> 00:55:03,572
God doesn't allow it. I think
on the day of final judgment,

746
00:55:03,673 --> 00:55:07,225
they will ask me
if she forgave me in this world.

747
00:55:07,326 --> 00:55:10,619
But the day of judgment is at hand,
and God is the one who asks me.

748
00:55:10,720 --> 00:55:12,726
I don't know what I'm going to say.

749
00:55:13,473 --> 00:55:18,106
So far in this chapter,
we saw an item off screen.

750
00:55:18,486 --> 00:55:21,120
But what happens
if we have two?

751
00:55:26,360 --> 00:55:30,826
The film Baxter, Vera Baxter, from
author and filmmaker Marguerite Duras.

752
00:55:33,200 --> 00:55:34,840
Beginning of the film.

753
00:55:36,413 --> 00:55:38,312
We are in a bar.

754
00:55:38,413 --> 00:55:40,799
A waiter talks
with a woman off-screen.

755
00:55:40,900 --> 00:55:43,366
They managed to build,
but something happened.

756
00:55:44,773 --> 00:55:46,240
They never came back...

757
00:55:47,780 --> 00:55:51,920
Then we heard a voice on the right.
A man making a call.

758
00:55:52,906 --> 00:55:54,790
Allah?

759
00:55:58,320 --> 00:56:00,492
The real estate agent
also tried calling.

760
00:56:00,593 --> 00:56:02,625
The bartender's voice sounds like an echo,

761
00:56:02,726 --> 00:56:06,833
but the woman's voice is recorded
closer and more clearly.

762
00:56:07,180 --> 00:56:10,660
-What's her name?
-Baxter.

763
00:56:12,440 --> 00:56:14,020
Vera Baxter.

764
00:56:15,453 --> 00:56:19,366
Vera Baxter. I don't know her.

765
00:56:21,186 --> 00:56:22,672
Like he was at the bar

766
00:56:22,773 --> 00:56:24,465
and she was
in a recording booth

767
00:56:24,566 --> 00:56:26,446
or perhaps in the film itself.

768
00:56:29,106 --> 00:56:32,526
So we have a person on the screen
and two off-screen.

769
00:56:35,020 --> 00:56:37,453
The camera barely moves.

770
00:56:40,320 --> 00:56:42,140
I said you are a journalist.

771
00:56:43,340 --> 00:56:47,006
The guy on the phone moves,
from the outside to the inside of the screen.

772
00:56:53,366 --> 00:56:55,573
And he is the young man
Gerard Depardieu.

773
00:56:55,860 --> 00:56:57,086
True.

774
00:56:57,633 --> 00:56:59,746
She is not yet
answering the phone.

775
00:57:02,493 --> 00:57:03,706
Are you going there?

776
00:57:09,713 --> 00:57:10,920
I don't know.

777
00:57:17,786 --> 00:57:18,993
I don't know.

778
00:57:24,586 --> 00:57:29,166
This scene is even richer.
The blind photographer Martin.

779
00:57:34,273 --> 00:57:36,280
Your dog passes by Andy,

780
00:57:36,486 --> 00:57:38,766
which describes
the photographs for him.

781
00:57:39,380 --> 00:57:42,940
Then go to Celia,
Martin's maid,

782
00:57:43,326 --> 00:57:45,733
who is a little obsessed
by the photographer.

783
00:57:47,420 --> 00:57:48,640
Bill.

784
00:57:54,006 --> 00:57:55,240
Bill.

785
00:57:56,566 --> 00:57:57,800
Bill!

786
00:57:59,000 --> 00:58:01,706
Russell Crowe's Andy
is between the two.

787
00:58:02,166 --> 00:58:03,406
Another trio.

788
00:58:04,140 --> 00:58:07,766
Precise use of on-screen steering
by director Jocelyn Moorehouse.

789
00:58:14,586 --> 00:58:16,666
Martin is lost
without your dog.

790
00:58:17,233 --> 00:58:19,200
The world is off-screen.

791
00:58:24,066 --> 00:58:27,232
Then the reference comes out
that completes the scene,

792
00:58:27,333 --> 00:58:28,540
that completes the story.

793
00:58:33,000 --> 00:58:35,920
And the woman left.
It also left the screen.

794
00:58:50,473 --> 00:58:54,026
Finally, in this chapter,
are we here? Second World War.

795
00:58:54,566 --> 00:58:57,533
Our hero Ivan is fighting
against the Germans.

796
00:58:58,066 --> 00:59:01,493
A dark gray around
of the lens surrounds him.

797
00:59:03,033 --> 00:59:04,446
A little to the right...

798
00:59:08,853 --> 00:59:10,065
a little to the right.

799
00:59:10,166 --> 00:59:13,433
The frame has the same shape
of his crawling body.

800
00:59:14,940 --> 00:59:16,680
He looks at his watch.

801
00:59:17,933 --> 00:59:19,166
And it says...

802
00:59:19,713 --> 00:59:24,260
Happy New Year, citizens of the world!
Best wishes.

803
00:59:25,190 --> 00:59:29,006
When you look at us and greet us,

804
00:59:29,473 --> 00:59:33,806
It reminds us who is really
off-screen: The public.

805
00:59:34,326 --> 00:59:36,346
I'm not a warrior.

806
00:59:36,533 --> 00:59:39,779
Damn Hitler, Goering, Goebbels,
Ribbentrop and all fascism.

807
00:59:39,880 --> 00:59:41,689
They give you some vodka.
Is this good?

808
00:59:41,790 --> 00:59:43,549
I prefer vodka once
every three days.

809
00:59:43,650 --> 00:59:46,605
So I can taste it
and really feel it.

810
00:59:46,706 --> 00:59:50,166
And there's a snowstorm here.
Forgive me, God.

811
00:59:50,700 --> 00:59:53,746
Where are you, fascist scum?
