SUMMARY:SCREENING  Jumana Manna  Wild Relatives (2018)
DESCRIPTION:  \nJumana Manna\, Wild Relatives (2018\, 70mins\, Arabic\, Norwegian\, English)\n£3 | £2 | booking advised |info@campleline.org.uk | Eventbrite | 01848 331 000 \nIn 2012 an international agricultural research centre was forced to relocate from Aleppo to Lebanon due to the Syrian civil war and then began a laborious process of planting and restoring its seed collection from back-ups recalled from the Global seedbank located in Svalbard. Following the path of those seeds between the Arctic and Lebanon\, Jumana Manna’s beautiful film unfolds a matrix of human and non-human lives across those two remote places\, following a large-scale international initiative and its local implementation in the Bekaa Valley of Lebanon\, carried out primarily by young migrant women. \nManna has said: ‘As someone raised in Jerusalem\, educated in Norway this geographic connection and the symbolic resonances of the story caught my attention. It inspired me to build a narrative…which takes these two tiny spots on the earth\, connected by a transaction of seeds\, as a starting point.’  \n  \n

SUMMARY:SCREENING  Peter Nester  Tod und Teufel (2009)
DESCRIPTION:  \nDeath and Devil\n(2009\, GR\, 54mins\, German\, Swedish\, English subtitles) \n£3 | £2\nBooking advised | info@campleline.org.uk | Eventbrite | 01848 331 000 \nEthnologist\, explorer\, hunter and adventurer – Count Eric von Rosen led a chequered life\, characterised by profound contradictions: genuine interest in the native population of Africa on the one hand and colonial racism on the other hand. Filmmaker Peter Nestler embarked on a historical journey in search of traces of his grandfather. Tod und Teufel is a video essay about the expeditions of Eric von Rosen ( a subject of Jacqueline Hoang Nguyen’s Black Atlas)\, and illustrated with photographs he took alongside texts from diaries\, publications and letters he wrote. \n‘Nestler has said that he was reluctant to make a film about his grandfather (‘his path along the abyss gave me an eerie feeling’)\, but the weight and power of the existing materials convinced him. Von Rosen not only wrote scientific books and anthropological studies\, but also documented all his trips with photographs and diary annotations. He made amateur movies\, collected objects and utensils\, and wrote political commentaries for the press’ – Cristina Álvarez López

SUMMARY:SCREENING  Allan Sekula and Noel Burch  The Forgotten Space (2010)
DESCRIPTION:  \n(2010\, NL | Austria\, 112mins\, some English subtitles) \n£3 | £2\nBooking advised | info@campleline.org.uk | Eventbrite | 01848 331 000 \nAt the heart of this film essay is the shipping container\, now one of the most important mechanisms for the global spread of capitalism. Crossing oceans and visiting numerous major ports\, the film follows the shipping container along the international supply chain\, mapping the complex networks that connect producers to consumers\, and increasingly\, producing nations to consuming ones. We meet the invisible labourers who staff the cargo ships\, steer the barges\, drive the trucks\, and migrate to the factories\, and those who this system’s efficiency has marginalised. \n‘Far from being the repository of romantic visions of yore\, of great voyages of discovery and adventure\, the sea – thanks to containerisation – is now the prime facilitator of globalised trade\, with all the exploitation\, upheavals and displacements that entails. This new reality is nailed by Burch and Sekula’s film with measured\, eloquent rage’ – Kieron Corless

DESCRIPTION:For age 4-9\nFREE \nJoin us for a fun reading of author and illustrator Jessie Hartland’s wonderful picture book How the Sphinx Got to the Museum: enjoy the story of how one particular Egyptian sculpture ended up in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.

SUMMARY:EXHIBITION OPENING Jacqueline Hoang Nguyen Maeve Brennan Laura Waddington
DESCRIPTION:  \nSAT 16 MARCH – SAT 25 MAY 2019\nEXHIBITION\nJacqueline Hoàng Nguyen | Maeve Brennan | Laura Waddington \nThursdays 12.30-7pm | Fridays 10am-4pm | Saturdays 11am-5pm | Or by appointment\nFree \nWe are delighted to present Black Atlas (2016)\, a five-part installation by Stockholm-based Canadian artist Jacqueline Hoàng Nguyen. Based on photographs that Nguyen found in the archives of the Museum of Ethnography in Stockholm\, Black Atlas reflects upon the nameless porters and workers who were used to transport an array of material from distant countries to the museum’s storage on behalf of some of its prominent benefactors. \nScreening daily alongside Black Atlas are two films that explore these threads in our contemporary world. Laura Waddington’s film CARGO (2001\, 29 mins) evokes the contradictions of a global freight network that services the movement of goods at the expense of the freedoms of its crew. Based on a six-week journey she made on a container ship with Rumanian and Filipino sailors\, Waddington has said of CARGO‘it falls between reality and fiction. It was a way of showing the limbo these men were living in.’ \nMaeve Brennan’s The Drift (2017\, 50mins) traces the shifting economies of objects in contemporary Lebanon through three individuals: Fakhry\, Mohammed and Hashem. It draws out their embodied knowledge of materials and things –  Fakhry guarding the Roman temple he rebuilt\, Mohammed replacing salvaged car parts as he talks\, Hashem silently repairing ceramic fragments –  in contrast to the exploitative practices we glimpse at the sharper edge of conflict. \n  \nMaeve Brennan\, The Drift (2017\, 50mins\, HD video)\, produced by Spike Island\, Bristol and Chisenhale\, London\, and commissioned by those venues along with The Whitworth\, Manchester\, and Lismore Castle Arts \n Laura Waddington CARGO (2001\, 29mins\, Digibeta)\, commissioned by International Film Festival Rotterdam
