BAD WEATHER<br />

82 min. 2011, Germany/UK (<strong>film</strong>ed in Bangladesh)<br />

Banishanta Isl<strong>and</strong> is made up of a community of sex workers. Living on a tiny sliver of l<strong>and</strong> 100<br />

meters long <strong>and</strong> only ten meters wide in the Bay of Bengal, south Bangladesh, this community<br />

survives at the frontline of climate change. The rising river, soil erosion <strong>and</strong> frequent cyclones<br />

are slowly destroying what is left of the isl<strong>and</strong>. Razia, Khadija <strong>and</strong> Shefali, three of the last 65<br />

women left living there, are in a battle for their homes, the future of their families, <strong>and</strong> even<br />

their quest for true love. As they strive to hold onto their livelihood, time is running out. Soon<br />

the whole of Banishanta will be totally submerged under water, making it one of the first real<br />

casualties of the shifting global environment.<br />

HALB ILM<br />

Režissöör Giovanni Giommi (Saksa/Inglise, <strong>film</strong>itud Bangladeshis)<br />

Ühel maailma väikseimal saarel, mis on vaid 100 meetrit pikk ning 10 meetrit lai, elab<br />

seksitöötajate kogukond. Siin, Bengaali lahes, on 65 prostituudi elu juuksekarva otsas. Kliima<br />

soojenemisega sagenevad tormid, mis võib lõbumajade saare Banishanta sootumaks minema<br />

uhtuda. Seepärast võtavad mööduvate kaubalaevade mehed siit viimast. Naise müüvad oma<br />

keha, aga mitte armastust. Razija, Khadija ning Shefali hoiavad armastust oma meestele, kes<br />

töötavad siin sutenööridena. Veetaseme tõus ilmameres ennustab peatset lõppu sellele väikesele<br />

kogukonnale.<br />

SKYDANCER<br />

72 min. 2011, USA/Germany<br />

The Brooklyn Bridge, the Empire State Building, the World Trade Center: for more than 120<br />

years, Mohawk ironworkers have raised America’s modern cityscapes. They are called ‘sky walkers’<br />

because they walk fearlessly atop steel beams just a foot wide, high above the city. Who are these<br />

Mohawk sky walkers? What is their secret for overcoming fear? Has ‘sky walking’ replaced an<br />

ancient rite of passage? Or is it the pure need to adapt in order to survive? And what is their life<br />

really like, when every Friday at quitting time, they jump in their cars <strong>and</strong> make the eight-hour<br />

drive up north to their families on the reservation?<br />

SKYDANCER is a feature length <strong>documentary</strong> that takes a provocative look at Indian life<br />

in the 21st century: from the fragile hierarchy on top of the breath-taking steel structures in<br />

New York City to life ‘on the Rez’ where problems like unemployment <strong>and</strong> crime make it hard<br />

to see the pristine beauty of the surrounding l<strong>and</strong>s. The <strong>film</strong> allows exceptional access to the<br />

lives of these ironworkers <strong>and</strong> in the process offers an intriguingly different perspective on<br />

contemporary Native Americans.<br />

TAEVATANTSIJA<br />

Režissöör Katja Esson (USA/Saksamaa)<br />

Brooklyni sild, Empire State Building, Maailma Kaub<strong>and</strong>uskeskus ning paljud teised New<br />

Yorgi kuulsad kõrgehitised on kerkinud Mohawk´i indiaanlaste kätetööna. Neid on hüütud<br />

taevaskõndijateks, sest eriline tasakaalutunne ning kõrgusekartmatus lubab mohawkidel vabalt<br />

kõndida ülikõrgetel teraskonstruktsioonidel ilma julgestusvahenditega. Ahhetamapanevad<br />

võtted pilvelõhkujate ehitamiselt vahelduvad indiaanlaste koduse elu ja esivanemate folkloori<br />

ning uskumuste jätkamisega. Film sellest, kuidas põlisrahvas on suutnud kohaneda moodsa<br />

tsivilisatsiooniga ning samas hoida elus oma keelt ning kultuuri.<br />

TEA OR ELECTRICITY<br />

93min. 2012, Belgium (<strong>film</strong>ed in Morocco)<br />

The <strong>documentary</strong> tells an epic story of the implementation of electricity in a tiny isolated<br />

village amidst of the Moroccan High Atlas. Over more than three years, the <strong>film</strong> maker patiently<br />

followed the decision making process as well as discussions for <strong>and</strong> against the project which<br />

will end the isolated life of the traditional community of the Ifri people. Finally, electricity<br />

arrives <strong>and</strong> changes traditional lifestyle of the next community of indigenous people. Are the<br />

men happy, now?<br />

TEE VÕI ELEKTER<br />

Režissöör Jérôme le Maire (Belgia, <strong>film</strong>itud Marokos)<br />

Eepiline lugu elektriliini ehitamisest väikesesse Maroko külla kesk Atlase kõrgmägesid.<br />

Filmilooja jälgis ja jäädvustas keerulist otsustusprotsessi, sest mitte kõik külaelanikud polnud<br />

nõus aastatuh<strong>and</strong>eid kestnud elustiili muutma. Filmi lõpuks jõuab elekter kohale ning veel üks<br />

põlisrahvas, seekord ifrid, hakkab elama uut moodi. On nad nüüd õnnelikud?
