Posted In: .Other movies

46th Ann Arbor Film Festival Volume 1
The Ann Arbor Film Festival is one of the oldest in North America, and because for years it accepted only 16mm films it was an important outlet for experimental filmmakers, budding animators, and aspiring directors and cinematographers who used the format as a stepping stone to bigger and better things. Over the years, many famous or soon-to-be famous filmmakers submitted their work: Gus Van Sant, Agnes Varda, Kenneth Anger, George Lucas, Yoko Ono, Andy Warhol. Michigan-born Michael Moore and University of Michigan-educated Lawrence Kasdan sit on its board.

This is a very worthwhile collection of short films, a must for anyone seriously interested in animation, experimental and surrealist cinema. Thanks to the folks at the Ann Arbor Film Festival, these films have a new venue that facilitates a wider audience than they'd otherwise have and audiences who can't make it to the festival now have a means of seeing some of the best entries.

Ten award-winning and favorite short films from the 46th Ann Arbor Film Festival, covering all dimensions of the frame: avant garde film art, experimental animation comedy, alternative narrative, poetic and abstract explorations of nature, indie documentary. Time Pieces also includes rare bonus material with deleted scenes, director commentary, artist statements, video installations and audition outtakes.

The Adventures of Tintin
One of the most popular European classic comic strips of all time tells stories of the heroic escapades of youthful reporter Tintin and his loyal canine companion Snowy. From a comic that first appeared in 1929 by Belgian artist Herge, these delightful adventures were spun into books, magazines, TV series, radio programs and theater productions. The television series The Adventures Of Tintin (1991-1993) follows Tintin and Snowy in solving mysteries closely related to the much-loved original stories. A colorful cast of characters is along for the ride, including the salty Captain Haddock, handy Professor Calculus and clumsy Thomson & Thompson. Exploring the globe, solving mysteries and searching for truth and justice, Tintin and crew inspire the adventurer in all of us!

Each episode is faithful to the times, set during the 20th century despite some wondrous events, the world Tintin inhabits is quite realistic and covers some major historical moments including Cuba's overthrow, Japan's Manchurian invasion and many more...

Edition Filmmuseum 43: Wunder der Schopfung / Our Heavenly Bodies (1925), The Einstein Theory of Relativity (1923) DVD9

Wunder der Schopfung 1925
Hanns Walter Kornblum's "Wunder der Schopfung" ("Our Heavenly Bodies", 1925) is one of the first films to represent knowledge about the universe on screen.

Essentially an illustrated astronomy lecture in the form of a special effects-filled German silent film, "Wunder der Schopfung" is a feast for the eyes. It covers a wide range of topics over the course of its 92 minutes, from the history of astronomy to an imaginary exploration of the solar system and beyond by spaceship, from faster-than-light travel to Einstein's Theory of Relativity. Though science has made innumerable new discoveries and disproved faulty theories the film is, even now, surprisingly relevant, entertaining, and informative. Using all manner of special effects, especially myriad forms of animation, Wunder der Schopfung is an amazing cinematic accomplishment, comparing favorably to contemporary fiction films like Fritz Lang's "Metropolis" and Harry Hoyt/Willis O'Brien's "The Lost World".

"The Einstein Theory of Relativity" (1923), utilizing an American print from the George Eastman House with English inter-titles (with optional German narration), runs 29 minutes and has much the same appeal. It takes highly complex concepts and through visual examples makes them understandable. It's a fascinating little film.

Animated Soviet Propaganda: From the October Revolution to Perestroika (1924 – 1979) 4 x DVD

Animated Soviet Propaganda: From the October Revolution to Perestroika
There hardly is a time in world history more politically polarized than the 20th century, which divided the globe in two camps — capitalism and communism — divided at the height of the divergence by the infamous Iron Curtain. The Cold War was very much a war of ideologies and each side relied heavily on the ideological unity of its people, often employing the power of the visual arts — graphic design, animation, illustration — to drive its message home. From 1924 to perestroika the USSR produced 41 animated propaganda films. Their target was the new nation and their goal was to win over the hearts and minds of the Soviet people. Anti-American, Anti-British, Anti-German, Anti-Capitalist, Anti-Fascist, some of these films are as artistically beautiful as the great political posters made after the 1917 revolution which inspired Soviet animation. Unearthed from Moscow's legendary Soyuzmultfilm Studios, the 41 films in Animated Soviet Propaganda span sixty years of Soviet history.

Arnolds Burovs – Animacijas filmu klasika / Animation classics (1966 – 1978) DVD5

Posted In: .Russian movies, Family

Arnolds Burovs Animation classics
The Latvian animation tradition that began in the 1960s is one of the strongest areas in Latvian cinema – diverse in genre and technology, full of creative revelations. Now, in the 21st century, Latvian animation is proud of their success at international festivals and of the strength of their creative core, their thriving studios and outstanding authors.

Arnolds Burovs, who made more than 40 films, began puppet animation at the Riga Film Studio. Burovs’ vision was carried forward by director Janis Cimermanis and artist Maris Putnins, who later became the producer of many films. They founded the studio Animacijas Brigade in 1992, and cultivated the studio’s recognizable visual signature and tone – comical, sincere, adventure-filled. Animacijas Brigade (Studio AB) is one of the most tradition-rich Latvian animation studios, and their films are regularly included in international film festival programmes. They’re frequent guests at the Berlinale – Cimermanis’ film “Corrida” was in the 2012 line up, and Dace Riduzes’ films have visited the festival on three occasions: “Firefly” in 2003, and “Acorn Boy” and “Little Rudy” in 2013. In 1994, Nils Skapans’ film “Let’s Fly” received the Berlinale Crystal Bear award.
