Samhällsfrågor och representation i tjeckiska serier, gratis inträde!

Välkommen till en workshop med serieillustratören och litteraturvetaren Pavel Kořínek, fredag 12/10 kl 14 på Zita, salong 2. Kořínek är mycket kunnig inom sin profession och kommer att presentera tjeckiskt serieskapande – specifikt inriktat på hur samhällsfrågor skildras och hur minoritetsfrågor hanteras. Denna unika workshop erbjuder goda möjligheter att ta del av och jämföra olika uttryckssätt i serier beroende på samhälle och kultur. Det är också en inblick i hur serietecknare världen över arbetar med att få serieskapandet till nya nivåer där vardaglig uttrycksform och djupt meningsskapande smälter samman.

Pavel Kořínek är litteraturvetare och forskar bland annat om serier. Han arbetar sedan flera år tillbaka på The Institute of Czech Literature (CAS) och har gett ut flera böcker, bland annat ”The History of Czechoslovak Comics of the 20th century” och ”Signals from the Unknown.Czech Comics 1922–2012.”

A Man Is Dead (Un Homme est Mort)

By Olivier Cossu, France, (2018), 66 min, French, English subtitles

Brest, 1950. Post-war reconstruction efforts in France have led to poor working conditions. The workers are on strike calling in vain for higher wages. P’tit Zef, Édouard (Mazé), and Désiré take part in demonstrations organized by the CGT syndicate when the situation suddenly becomes violent. The police shoot into the crowd and a bullet hits Édouard. The labor union calls upon the filmmaker René Vautier to film the events. P’tit Zef and Désiré accompany Vautier through the devastated city. Having at his side a man whose only weapon is a camera, P’tit Zef is consumed with anger. He wants revenge for the death of his friend.

Buñuel in the Labyrinth of the Turtles

By Salvador Simó, Spain (2018), 88 min, Spanish with English subtitles

Paris, 1930. Salvador Dalí and Luis Buñuel are already the main figures of the Surrealist movement. Unexpectedly, Buñuel is left moneyless after the scandal surrounding his film The Golden Age. His next project, a documentary about one of the poorest Spanish regions, Las Hurdes, seems unmanageable. His good friend, sculptor Ramón Acín, buys a lottery ticket. Incredibly, luck is on their side. This is the story of the making of Land Without Bread (1933).

Scenes from the, at times, disturbing film are shown in this animated feature. A lot has been said about Buñuel’s methods in this filmmaking process. Buñuel in the Labyrinth of the Turtles portrays an era and depicts the practices of the time.

The Kite

By Martin Smatana 13:03 Slovakia, Czech Republic, Poland • 2019

Summer is coming to the end, the fruit is growing ripe on the trees. Grandpa gives his grandson a kite. As the boy is tossed around in the air, Grandpa catches him. Then the leaves fall and Grandpa has grown weak. A strong autumn wind carries him off into the cloudy sky. Winter comes, then springtime. A warm breeze brings them together again.
