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

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

SUMMARY:Reading Group #9  Madeleine Thien\, Do Not Say We Have Nothing
DESCRIPTION:  \nCAMPLE LINE Reading Group\nWednesday 6 February\, 7-9pm\nJoin us for tea\, coffee (decaff!) and conversation about our ninth read – Madeleine Thien’s Do Not Say We have Nothing (2016\, Granta\, 480 pages) \nIn Canada in 1990\, ten-year-old Marie and her mother invite a guest into their home: a young woman who has fled China in the aftermath of the Tiananmen Square protests. Her name is Ai-ming. \nAs her relationship with Marie deepens. Ai-ming tells the story of her family in revolutionary China\, from the crowded teahouses in the first days of Chairman Mao’s ascent\, to the Shanghai Conservatory in the 1960s and the events leading to the Beijing demonstrations of 1989. It is a history of revolutionary idealism\, music and silence\, in which three musicians\, the shy and brilliant composer Sparrow\, the violin prodigy Zhuli\, and the enigmatic pianist Kai struggle during China’s relentless Cultural Revolution to remain loyal to one another and to the music they have devoted their lives to. Forced to re-imagine their artistic and private selves\, their fates reverberate through the years\, with deep and lasting consequences for Ai-ming – and for Marie. \nMadeleine Thien is the author of the story collection Simple Recipes (2001) and the novels Certainty (2006) and Dogs at the Perimeter (Granta\, 2012). Her books and stories have been translated into 23 languages. The daughter of Malaysian-Chinese immigrants to Canada\, she lives in Montreal.

SUMMARY:Screening  Tampopo (1985)
DESCRIPTION:  \nTampopo [15]\n(1985\, Japan\, Director Jûzô Itami\, 1hr 54mins\, English subtitles) \nCast: Tsutomu Yamazaki\, Nobuko Miyamoto\, Kōji Yakusho\, Ken Watanabe \nTickets: £3 | £2\nYou can book directly with us: info@campleline.org.uk | 01848 331 000 \nWe are really pleased to be screening the wonderful ‘Tampopo’ as part of the BFI’s Comedy Genius season\, with support from Driftwood Cinema. \nHow far would you go for the perfect ramen? ‘Tampopo’ is a brilliant underdog story of a roadside ramen shop vying to create the best ramen noodles around. Trucking stranger Goro drives into town and takes shelter in the failing\, out-of-the-way ramen bar. He takes pity on its owner Tampopo\, and with a diverse team of local noodle\, broth and topping experts\, he sets out to turn it into the finest noodle bar in Tokyo. Along the way\, ‘Tampopo’ riffs on Japanese corporate culture\, internationalism\, domestic relations\, cinema and sex. One of the best Japanese films of the 1980s\, it is often referred to as a ‘ramen western’ and has only recently been re-released. Director Juzo Itami has said: \n‘I made this movie entirely out of things I like. Ramen noodles\, Westerns\, some parts of Tokyo\, and these actors. A long time ago\, I had this idea of making a film concerning human behavior about food\, because a sensual movie could be made from such a theme. I began collecting episodes\, but thought there would be no way to string them all into a workable film. Then I considered doing something about a noodle shop\, and doing it as a Western. But I still wanted to fit those episodes in. So I thought of the Buñuel film The Phantom of Liberty\, the kind of film where the last thing of the scene before leads to the next event — that kind of quick-change thing.’ \nComedy Genius is a nationwide celebration of comedy on screen\, led by BFI\, the Independent Cinema Office and BFI Film Audience network\, supported by funds from the National Lottery.

SUMMARY:Reading Group #8  Aminatta Forna  The Memory of Love
DESCRIPTION:  \nIf you like the sound of Forna’s book\, then why not join us on 28 November for (decaff) coffee (or tea) and conversation – it’s our eighth read! \nFreetown\, Sierra Leone\, 1969. On a hot January evening that he will remember for decades\, Elias Cole first catches sight of Saffia Kamara\, the wife of a charismatic colleague. He is transfixed. Thirty years later\, lying in the capital’s hospital\, he recalls the desire that drove him to acts of betrayal he has tried to justify ever since. \nElsewhere in the hospital\, Kai\, a gifted young surgeon\, is desperately trying to forget the pain of a lost love that torments him as much as the mental scars he still bears from the civil war. It falls to a British psychologist\, Adrian Lockheart\, to help the two survivors\, but when he too falls in love\, past and present collide with devastating consequences. \nAminatta Forna was born in Scotland\, raised in Sierra Leone and Great Britain and spent periods of her childhood in Iran\, Thailand and Zambia. She is the award-winning author of the novels Happiness\, The Hired Man\, The Memory of Love and a memoir The Devil that Danced on the Water. She is currently Lannan Visiting Chair of Poetics at Georgetown University and Professor of Creative Writing at Bath Spa University. \nPlease bring your own copy of the book.

SUMMARY:Artist Film Group  Spell Reel\, 2017
DESCRIPTION:A collective film assembled by Portuguese artist Filipa César\nWith Anita Fernandez\, Flora Gomes\, Sana na N’Hada et al\n96mins\, with English subtitles\n£3 \n \n  \nPlease join us for this first screening in our Artist Film series. Throughout our programme to date\, we have showed a number of extraordinary long-form films by artists and experimental filmmakers\, some lasting over two hours. We invite you to join us for screenings and low-key discussion about unique films drawn from across the world. \nSpell Reel centres upon the story of an archive of film and audio material in Guinea-Bissau in West Africa\, which was originally commissioned in the 1960s as part of the decolonising vision of Amílcar Cabral\, the liberation leader who was assassinated in 1973. Following a military coup in 2012\, filmmakers Sana na N’Hada and Flora Gomes took the footage to Berlin for digitization. Two years later\, inspired by Chris Marker’s visit to Guinea-Bissau (and during which he screened his own films in villages)\, N’Hada and Gomes then returned to present the digitized films in the places where the footage was originally shot. \nWith great poignancy\, César’s film draws together excerpts of the original footage now digitised alongside her own footage of the screenings that took place first in Guinea-Bissau and then in Berlin\, and the discussions that followed them. As Ela Bittencourt has said: ‘…the images gain new urgency by being reinserted into a public discourse. Spell Reel is about the importance of sharing images.’  \nFilipa César was born in 1975 in Porto in Portugal. She lives and works in Berlin. Her films films are concerned with the relationship between history\, memory\, image and narrative. \nPart of our May You Live screening programme

DESCRIPTION:image: still from Singin’ in the Rain (US\, Gene Kelly and Stanley Donan\, 1952\, 103mins)\, courtesy of Warner Bros Distributors\nThe first of two technicolour films we are screening this autumn: Singin’ in the Rain (1952) is an extraordinary feat of story-telling and choreography combined with three-colour technology. Set during the rise of the ‘talkies’ in Hollywood in the 1920s\, Don Lockwood and Lina Lamont\, two stars of the silent-film era of Hollywood\, must adapt. However\, Lina has a shrill voice\, and young studio singer Kathy Selden is is initially recruited to voice her parts. \nFeaturing some dazzling choreography and dance performance\, including Moses Supposes\, Make’em Laugh\, Good Morning and Singin’ in the Rain\, it remains a singular achievement of musical cinema. \n  \n£3 (£2) | booking advised\nBook a seat via eventbrite or contact us directly\ninfo@campleline.org.uk | 01848 331 000

SUMMARY:Screening: The Epic of Everest  dir. J.B.L. Noel (1924)
DESCRIPTION:image: still from The Epic of Everest (UK\, JBL Noel\, 1924\, 87 mins)\, courtesy of the BFI\, London\nThe third attempt to climb Everest in June 1924 culminated in the deaths of two of the finest climbers of their generation\, George Mallory and Andrew Irvine\, and sparked an on-going debate over whether or not they reached the summit. Filming in brutally harsh conditions with a hand-cranked camera\, Captain John Noel captured images of breathtaking beauty and considerable historic significance. The film is very much a document that reflects the time it was made in. It is also among the earliest filmed records of life in Tibet and features sequences at Phari Dzong (Pagri)\, Shekar Dzong (Xegar) and Rongbuk monastery. \nRecently remastered by the British Film Institute\, the unique original colour toning of some of the sequences has been restored\, with a new score by Simon Fisher Turner. \n  \n*NB date change*\n£3 (£2) | booking advised\nBook a seat via eventbrite or contact us directly\ninfo@campleline.org.uk | 01848 331 000

He told me that he goes every summer to look for minerals and precious stones on the Palestinian side of the Jordan valley. And because of his knowledge about the shift in tectonic plates he can work out where the same minerals will be deposited on the other side of the valley and goes and collects them there…His knowledge of the landscape is a very particular one and its manifests in stone.’ \nWe are pleased to screen Jerusalem Pink in the context of our current exhibition\, Louise Hopkins’ Flying Fox\, and in proximity of the nearby Closeburn Limestone Formation. \n£2 (booking required)\nBook via Eventbrite\, be in touch directly to reserve a seat | info@campleline.org.uk | 01848 331 000

DESCRIPTION:Ben Russell\nGood Luck\, 2017\n(UK/FR\, 143mins\, English subtitles) \nBeginning with a 600m descent into the depths of the earth\, Good Luck shines a light on the human face of labour in an underground state-owned copper mine in Serbia.
