Abstract

Film X Autochthonous Struggles Today brings together for the first time filmmakers, activists, film curators, and scholars who share a common interest in filmmaking practices that emerge from and participate in the various situations of struggle that the Autochthonous/Indigenous/Native/Aboriginal/First Nations peoples and communities are involved in worldwide. Starting with the Edison Studio's 1894 short films Buffalo Dance and Sioux Ghost Dance, representations of Autochthonous peoples have been part of cinema right from its inception. The vast majority of these representations, however, have not been produced by nor for Autochthonous peoples. In the wake of political and cultural self-determination movements of the 1960s and 1970s, and with the gradual democratization and accessibility of the tools of moving-image making, Autochthonous communities have displaced and renewed cinema's forms and means of production, increasingly reclaiming their right for self-representation by way of film and video. Along with the vibrant forms of moving images arising from within the communities, close to their existential political concerns, filmmaking has also become a potent tool in Autochthonous struggles. This book answers the need to take a global look at the diverse ways of filmmaking that fight for land rights and against environmental injustice (Brazil, Morocco, Taiwan, USA), that resist neocolonial domination, economic and political exploitation (Japan, Philippines), that offer a counterpoint during low intensity or drawn-out armed conflicts (Colombia, Mexico), that invent strategies of counter information and representation (Australia, Canada, Russia, Samoa), and that strive for visibility.

Abstract

L'enquête ethnographique a toujours été accompagnée par l'enregistrement de matériaux visuels et sonores auxquels les anthropologues donnent plus ou moins forme. Toutefois, rares sont celles et ceux qui considèrent cette création formelle comme une source de connaissance fondamentale. Figure de premier plan de l'anthropologie et des sound studies de langue anglaise, Steven Feld a développé une conception de la recherche comme composition sans égal. Ses œuvres intermédia rendent sensibles différentes manières d'habiter le monde et de recomposer sa mémoire sonore à l'ère de l'anthropocène. Du ruissellement d'une cascade de la forêt équatoriale aux klaxons de la mégalopole d'Accra, en passant par le son des cigales ou la détonation de la bombe atomique, les deux essais inédits de cet ouvrage bouleversent les perspectives acoustiques établies et ouvrent le passionnant domaine de la recherche-composition
