constitue une proposition esthétique de toute première importance. Écrire sur lui s’impose. Et tant pis si plus personne ne peut le voir.&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;   &lt;br /&gt;   &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;" class="texte"&gt;&lt;p class="spip"&gt;Décidément, le Portugal offre de nos jours les cinéastes les plus radicaux et stimulants qui soient. Après &lt;i class="spip"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.critikat.com/En-avant-jeunesse.html" class="spip_in"&gt;En avant, jeunesse&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/i&gt; de Pedro Costa – autre film portugais ayant mis deux ans à atterrir sur les écrans français et y ayant survécu quelques semaines seulement ! –, &lt;i class="spip"&gt;Body Rice&lt;/i&gt; vient se hisser sans peine au rang des films les plus impressionnants de l’année. S’il est difficile d’en parler, c’est qu’au-delà de son apparence de film sur pas grand-chose, de trip minéral et léthargique, il s’agit d’un objet cinématographique foisonnant.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="spip"&gt;&lt;i class="spip"&gt;Body Rice&lt;/i&gt; est une succession de plans longs d’une remarquable intelligence de cadrage. Sans s’interdire de décadrer, les plans se fixent souvent, laissant les corps investir le champ comme bon leur semble, favorisant l’attention au moindre mouvement (Julia pose sur soi les vêtements de l’occupant de la chambre d’hôtel qu’elle est censée nettoyer ; des enfants jouent avec une tortue dans un ruisseau). Parfois, de lents et puissants travellings détaillent ou accompagnent ces corps (Anja prend un bain d’argile puis va se doucher ; des danseurs traînent leur pas lourd sur la plage lors d’hypnotiques &lt;i class="spip"&gt;rave parties&lt;/i&gt;).&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="spip"&gt;Un carton nous apprend que le film – une fiction – a été tourné dans le cadre d’un programme expérimental de rééducation envoyant de jeunes allemands asociaux vivre en communauté dans l’Alentejo, région située au Sud du Portugal. Mais la narration, elliptique, est réduite au minimum. Si rien n’échappe à la compréhension, il apparaît bien vite que Vieira da Silva est moins intéressé par l’histoire que par le corps et par son rapport concret, immédiat, à son environnement et aux autres corps. Un plan génial parvient même à transformer un objet en corps : un robot pour enfant y prend vie devant Katrin hébétée.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="spip"&gt;C’est un film physique, rocailleux, lourd, où un soleil de plomb irradie une pellicule aux couleurs désaturées et écrase des corps traversant différents états : aphasie ou spasmophilie, sérénité ou transe. Le cinéaste se refuse évidemment à juger ses personnages sans énergie, sans volonté, sans projet. Cette atmosphère &lt;i class="spip"&gt;no future&lt;/i&gt;, qui plombe quelque peu, fait ausi toute la force et la beauté du film. D’autant que, l’horizon s’annonçant bouché, c’est à l’ici et maintenant qu’il convient de prêter attention. Or chacun des plans raconte quelque chose, bruisse de mouvements et de respiration, étonne et captive le regard. Scandé par des morceaux de musique industrielle, de &lt;i class="spip"&gt;cold wave&lt;/i&gt; ou de &lt;i class="spip"&gt;hard techno&lt;/i&gt; (une exception : l’utilisation un rien facile et pourtant si efficace d’un chant baroque, qui n’est pas sans rappeler la fin de &lt;i class="spip"&gt;Last Days&lt;/i&gt;), &lt;i class="spip"&gt;Body Rice&lt;/i&gt; est un film &lt;i class="spip"&gt;punk&lt;/i&gt; plein de vie, dont il faut guetter sans répit la prochaine projection.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="spip"&gt;Raphaël Lefèvre&lt;/p&gt;15.07.2008&lt;br /&gt;in&lt;br /&gt;http://www.critikat.com/Body-Rice.html&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/32882354-4437179606414553528?l=body-rice.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://body-rice.blogspot.com/feeds/4437179606414553528/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=32882354&amp;postID=4437179606414553528' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32882354/posts/default/4437179606414553528'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32882354/posts/default/4437179606414553528'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://body-rice.blogspot.com/2008/08/body-rice-in-paris-july-2008-press.html' title='Body Rice in Paris -July 2008- Press'/><author><name>lucifer</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04948248009626903710</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32882354.post-8275194121716123895</id><published>2008-06-26T04:48:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-06-26T05:07:10.397-07:00</updated><title type='text'>CINÉMATHÈQUE FRANÇAISE july 2008</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bp3.blogger.com/_S32BY_sA0nc/SGOGMwNzZfI/AAAAAAAAABs/c7dA0SDlPMM/s1600-h/600full-body-rice-poster.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://bp3.blogger.com/_S32BY_sA0nc/SGOGMwNzZfI/AAAAAAAAABs/c7dA0SDlPMM/s400/600full-body-rice-poster.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5216160347084514802" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;"BODY RICE" presented by Hugo Vieira da Silva&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;at the cinémathèque française&lt;br /&gt;PARIS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dimanche 6 Juillet 2008 - 19h00&lt;br /&gt;salle Georges Franju&lt;br /&gt;&lt;table class="liste__sessions" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td style="padding: 6px;" align="left" valign="top"&gt;&lt;nobr&gt;&lt;/nobr&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;br /&gt;cycle&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.cinematheque.fr/fr/nosactivites/projections/cycles-cinema/cycle/C170-siecle-europe-siecle-cinema.htm"&gt;UN SIECLE EN EUROPE, UN SIECLE DE CINEMA&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;(...)L'Europe, objet introuvable, est identifiable comme dimension de l'Histoire, espace réel ou mental ou encore ensemble de paysages dans un certain nombre de films.

&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;(...)&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Qui seraient aujourd'hui les jeunes illuminés de La Cica&amp;shy;trice intérieure, de Philippe Garrel ? Peut-être bien les zombies trash de Body Rice. En quarante ans, la situation s'est gâtée, le no future des punks est passé par là, suivi par d'autres lames de fond encore moins optimistes. Les adolescents du film sont des délinquants allemands qu'on a envoyés dans le sud du Portugal, où ils sont censés réapprendre la sociabilité. A partir de cette expérience vraie (pratiquée depuis 1980), le jeune réalisateur mixe un trip immobile, volontairement décousu. Une poignée de garçons et de filles autistes, prostrés, avachis, fument, picolent, parfois dansent sur de la techno devant un mur d'enceintes, au milieu de nulle part. Parmi eux se détache Katrin, punkette grande et maigre, qui zone, shoote dans un poisson mort pour le rejeter dans l'eau, marche sans but. Un curieux spécimen, entre le robot et l'animal.Lorsque, par miracle, des mots surgissent, cela fait tout bizarre - surtout d'entendre la langue de Goethe dans ce coin désertique de l'Alentejo. Certains parlent un peu le portugais, comme Dieter (André Hennicke, un comédien allemand qui monte), celui qui encadre (?) les bannis. Mais ce qui se dit n'éclaire pas vraiment la situation, ce sont des échanges minimaux, comme pour vérifier que l'autre n'est pas mort. La musique, voilà ce qui rapproche encore le plus, les bombardements de techno ou ce bon vieux son spartiate des années 80, de Einstürzende Neubauten à Joy Division, en passant par X-Mal Deustchland (...) Ses fragments donnent pourtant une image assez juste de cette « apocalypse au ralenti » conceptualisée par Baudrillard. Quelque chose de terrible mais qui apporte également, contre toute attente, une sorte de paix(...)&lt;br /&gt;Jacques Morice&lt;br /&gt;Télérama, Samedi 19 janvier 2008&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/32882354-6713234651411000643?l=body-rice.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://body-rice.blogspot.com/feeds/6713234651411000643/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=32882354&amp;postID=6713234651411000643' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32882354/posts/default/6713234651411000643'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32882354/posts/default/6713234651411000643'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://body-rice.blogspot.com/2008/01/body-rice-in-france.html' title='&quot;BODY RICE&quot;

cinématographique exceptionnelle. Body Rice n’est pas simplement un film à propos de la jeunesse, mais un voyage où le spectateur devra se remettre de ses émotions. Ceux qui croient tout connaître sur la jeunesse d’aujourd’hui n’auront qu’à bien se tenir.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;De jeunes délinquants allemands sont envoyés au Portugal pour un programme de rééducation sociale. Le coin où ces jeunes atterrissent n’a rien de socialement très accueillant. Un paysage environnant aride et un ennui quotidien leur font mener une vie apathique et solitaire, les coupant totalement du monde extérieur. L’unique forme de ‘communauté’ apparente sont les raves technos sur la plage, les rendant encore plus semblables à des robots. Au fur et à mesure du programme des amitiés se créent malgré tout, mais celles-ci sont avares de mots et d’affection.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(...)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Festival du film Bruxelles&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/32882354-150424318654990739?l=body-rice.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://body-rice.blogspot.com/feeds/150424318654990739/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=32882354&amp;postID=150424318654990739' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32882354/posts/default/150424318654990739'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32882354/posts/default/150424318654990739'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://body-rice.blogspot.com/2007/07/bruxelles-festival-du-film.html' title='Bruxelles- Festival du film'/><author><name>lucifer</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04948248009626903710</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32882354.post-8236126089058705975</id><published>2007-07-01T11:56:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-07-01T12:14:50.871-07:00</updated><title type='text'>PRIZES AND SELECTIONS 2007</title><content type='html'>BODY RICE-&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;updated prizes and festival selections ( 5 international prizes;

The films shown during the competition always arouse extreme emotions, admiration, or protests - they do not let themselves to be forgotten. They are the ones that are most talked about on our internet forum and the festival’s Hyde Park. The NEW HORIZONS film festival would simply not exist without them.&lt;br /&gt;Every year one of the films participating in the competition receives a GRAND PRIX – the festival’s main prize awarded by the public. As one can see, our public is just as unpredictable as the films themselves. So far sublime pictures of renown directors (Dolls by Takeshi Kitano in 2003), as well as brilliant and rebellious débuts (La sagrada familia by Sebastian Campos in the last edition) have been winning so far; as well as private dramas (Brodeuses by Eléonore Faucher in 2004), as well as independent extravagancies (Tarnation by Jonathan Caouette in 2005). Which film will the audience pick this time? We will find out in July.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;ERA NEW HORIZONS is a festival of films that go beyond the limits of conventional cinema.  Deciding about the formula of our festival, especially of its competition part, we asked ourselves a question: is there in the 21st century cinema (shaped by the mass audience and its tastes) a place for directors who go against the current, for individualists who use their own style, their own inimitable language.&lt;br /&gt;Such haughty artists still exist in different parts of the world, although they find it ever harder to realise their projects. And yet their art does have its lovers - it is for those lovers that the festival is organised.&lt;br /&gt;Guided by our own taste, from among hundreds of films that are screened yearly at festivals all over the world, we choose those that due to their unusual form and force of expression will not let the audience forget them. All over the world, they give rise to polemics and discussions, praise and protest. And yet it is such films that usually set the newest trends in world cinema art.&lt;br /&gt;ERA NOWE HORYZONTY is a festival of film visionaries, of uncompromising artists who have the courage to follow a path of their choice against the current trend and to tell about the most important things using their own unique language.&lt;br /&gt;Roman Gutek – Festival Director&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://7ff.eranowehoryzonty.pl/index.do"&gt;http://7ff.eranowehoryzonty.pl/index.do&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/32882354-7237290067568929462?l=body-rice.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://body-rice.blogspot.com/feeds/7237290067568929462/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=32882354&amp;postID=7237290067568929462' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32882354/posts/default/7237290067568929462'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32882354/posts/default/7237290067568929462'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://body-rice.blogspot.com/2007/07/body-rice-in-poland.html' title='BODY RICE in POLAND'/><author><name>lucifer</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04948248009626903710</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32882354.post-3504981172092834734</id><published>2007-07-01T11:42:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-07-01T11:46:47.774-07:00</updated><title type='text'>BODY RICE in DVD</title><content type='html'>It was recently released the portuguese edition of the film BODY RICE.&lt;br /&gt;(It has english has optional)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You can buy at sending an email to&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="mailto:video.atalanta@atalantafilmes.com"&gt;video.atalanta@atalantafilmes.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You should mention your name and adress.

En las imágenes de los cineastas que conforman la que podríamos denominar cuarta generación —la de Pedro Costa, Teresa Villaverde, un poco más joven, João Pedro Rodrigues— transpira una escritura de la desesperación.Este caso, único en el contexto europeo, se torna más particular si cabe tras sumar en el ínterin los nombres de Claudia Tomaz, Catarina Ruivo, Marco Martins, y Hugo Vieira da Silva, la última y más fulgurante incorporación, que forman el grueso de una nueva oleada de cineastas portugueses que prosiguen en las líneas básicas el hilo de sus mayores en cuanto abordan un cine del vagabundeo, de la deriva existencial en territorios hendidos; perfilan una escritura en la brecha entre el deseo y la distancia, la materia y el fantasma, el documento y la ficción y, escrutan, entre otros lugares, el de una ausencia constitutiva o el de una deriva ocasionada por un agujero negro, por la dificultad de conciliar el tiempo y las transmisiones paterno-filiales o, simplemente, por hacerse cargo de la propia vida. Este cine abiertamente crítico, de mirada detenida y a veces casi congelada, que trabaja sobre el fluir temporal, que habita la crisis del relato, que ausculta las más de las veces una violencia sorda, que muestra otros ángulos y otra Europa, ha sido posible y sigue siéndolo en gran parte por el propósito de Paulo Branco, figura tutelar que por sí misma se basta para abarcar todas las generaciones y lo más interesante de la producción portuguesa de los últimos treinta años.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Alemania&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hija espiritual del cine alemán de los setenta –el de Fassbinder, Herzog y compañía—, pues comparte con ellos la voluntad de romper con el cine imperante, y admiradora del cine francés que va más allá de la Nouvelle Vague –con Robert Bresson a la cabeza—, la Escuela de Berlín pausa sus tiempos y construye sus obras a base de silencios. Películas como Ferien, de Thomas Arslan, llevan al extremo lo cotidiano, mediante finales que no cierran de forma tajante la trama, sino que la mantienen en suspenso.La narración refleja así un sentimiento de pérdida, en medio de un deambular continuo por paisajes vastos que se recorren en coche. La luz que se deja ver en cada película es absolutamente neutra: todo para dibujar una imagen fría de una Alemania a medio hacer que encuentra su perfecta representación en espacios que parecen en construcción. Milchwald, de Christoph Hochhäusler (del que se pudo ver Falscher Bekenner en el MICEC’06) o Montag kommen die Fenster, de Ulrich Köhler, muestran edificios en obras, y Ping Pong, de Matthias Lutdhardt, o Sommer 04, de Stefan Krohmer, se desarrollan en la lejanía de una casa de verano. Son espacios todos que poco tienen que ver con una idea de hogar y que se corresponden con la imagen de familias desestructuradas y en crisis. Las conversaciones dan paso a la incomunicación y el sonido refleja, mediante el rumor de los árboles o una banda sonora abrasiva, la incomodidad. La familia se convierte así en el núcleo roto y resquebrajado de este nuevo cine alemán, y los adolescentes pasan a ser los protagonistas de muchas de sus películas. Son adolescentes que deambulan por un país grande y joven: falsarios, como el protagonista de Falscher Bekenner, o madres que aun no han terminado el instituto, como en Lucy, de Henner Winkler. Estos personajes pueblan un cine que muestra con aplomo el sentimiento de ir constantemente a la deriva. Contrariamente al desconcierto de sus personajes, los cineastas de la Escuela de Berlín se presentan con una gran conciencia de grupo y con el convencimiento de estar llevando a cabo una fiel disección de la nueva Alemania. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/32882354-8642781671868534451?l=body-rice.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://body-rice.blogspot.com/feeds/8642781671868534451/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=32882354&amp;postID=8642781671868534451' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32882354/posts/default/8642781671868534451'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32882354/posts/default/8642781671868534451'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://body-rice.blogspot.com/2007/06/body-rice-em-barcelona.html' title='BODY RICE em BARCELONA'/><author><name>lucifer</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04948248009626903710</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32882354.post-3902920294547462852</id><published>2007-05-22T02:05:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2007-05-22T02:22:57.434-07:00</updated><title type='text'>BODY RICE NO BRASIL</title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="justify"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;BODY RICE foi seleccionado para a competição do festival de cinema Ibero-Americano no Brasil a decorrer nos próximos dias 1-8 de Junho 2007 e estará brevemente em competição no festival New Horizons na Polónia&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Recorde-se que BODY RICE ganhou uma Menção Especial do Juri em Locarno 2006 na competição oficial, o Prémio para Melhor Realizador no festival internacional de cinema da cidade do México (FICCO) 2007,  o prémio também de melhor realizador, na competição oficial do mítico BAFICI- Buenos Aires independent Film festival 2007, assim como o prémio Revelação nos Caminhos do Cinema Português 2007.

So skizziert etwa der Portugiese Hugo Vieira da Silva in Body Rice den Alltag "schwer erziehbarer" deutscher Teenager, die sich an der portugiesischen Küste in der Obhut eines gestrandeten Landsmanns und seines "Projekts" wiederfinden. Body Rice ist dabei weniger sozialrealistische Milieustudie. Der Film erzählt von einer eigentümlichen räumlichen Verpflanzung, die hier mit einem Zustand doppelter sozialer Entrücktheit korrespondiert. Und er tut dies vor allem in Form von szenischen Miniaturen oder beiläufig choreographierten Bewegungen seiner immer halb abwesend wirkenden Figuren durch sorgsam komponierte Tableaus. Im Kontext des Festivals, welches insgesamt auch heuer wieder mit einer bemerkenswerten Zahl sehenswerter Arbeiten aufwarten konnte, lieferte Hugo Vieira da Silva damit einen der formal profiliertesten Beiträge. Ähnlich seine Kollegin Teresa Villaverde, die in Transe das Martyrium einer Russin behandelte, die Opfer von Frauenhändlern wird. Auch ihr gelingt über weite Strecken eine künstlerisch ambitionierte Auseinandersetzung mit einer konkreten Realität.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(Isabella Reicher / DER STANDARD, Printausgabe, 30.04.2007)&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/32882354-8526845390841729742?l=body-rice.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://body-rice.blogspot.com/feeds/8526845390841729742/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=32882354&amp;postID=8526845390841729742' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32882354/posts/default/8526845390841729742'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32882354/posts/default/8526845390841729742'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://body-rice.blogspot.com/2007/05/der-standard-austria.html' title='DER STANDARD (Austria)'/><author><name>lucifer</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04948248009626903710</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32882354.post-6293316560165165278</id><published>2007-05-16T12:15:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-05-16T12:34:59.377-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Ezquiel Schmoller</title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="center"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lo primero que vemos- o, más bien, leemos- en Body Rice es una placa informativa que dice lo seguinte: "Desde 1980 muchas instituciones alemanas envían a cientos de adolescentes alsur de Portugal a participar en una serie de projectos experimentales de reeducación social. Esta película esta baseada en los testímonos de algunos de estes jóvenes" Y después de la placa qué vemos ? Un centro de détencion juvenil con guardias abusivos e represores ? Una clinica con doctores y psicólogos intentando ayudar o maltratando a los adolescentes ? Terapias de grupo, de schock, castigos ? No, nada de esto. Vemos a adolescentes y a veinteaneros vagando abúlicamente por diferentes espácios, haciendo exactamente lo que se les da la gana. Jugando a los fichines, al fútbol, tirados en una cama, escuchando y bailando al ritmo de la música electrónica. Los espacios: una caravana, un hotel lujoso, la costa de un lago, una zona semidesértica, una casa un poco veniada  a menos. Todo lo que nos da la placa informativa (una pauta, una ayuda y una direccíon para acercarmos a lo que está por venir) se va resquebrando con las imágenes. La película dieluye paulatinamente a la infórmacion inicial. Asi reeducan a los jóvenes ? De la expressión " projectos experimetales de reeducación social" queda mui clara la parte "experimental" , pero lo de "reeducación social" es directamente desconcertante. En ningún momento vemos ni encargados, ni doctores, ni guardias, ni terapias, ni nada. Los adolescentes están solos. Ni siquiera hay un espacio único (un centro, una clínica) en el que interactúan.&lt;br /&gt;Body Rice es una película tan absorbente e hipnótica come LAST DAYS, de Gus Van Sant. En términos  estructurales, es como los adolescentes que filma: no tiene uma diréccion clara, no se propone llegar a ningúm lado. Igual que sus adolescentes, se limita ba estar e a dejarse estar. Es espisódica y desestructurada. Sin embargo, termina demonstrando algo: que los adolescentes que no pueden o no quieren adaptarse al mundo están justificados. &lt;strong&gt;Que tienen razón&lt;/strong&gt;.

In  the early 90's a group of young Germans arrives in Portugal to be part of a decade-old experimental social reinsertion program. Starting out as a documentary project, Body Rice morphed into a fiction based on experiences of the people in the program. Alentejo- A desertified area in Portugal's south- is the ideal setting for Hugo Vieira da Silva's contemplative gaze, which portrays a strange community that perpetuates pointless encounters and conversations, indolent wlaks and uncrowded raves of electric vitality. Between apathy and muffled surprise, between furious music and silence, the film to some extent lays the uncertaintly, stagnation and uprootedness of Wim Wenders The state of the things upon the Portuguese landscape. Countinously adrifft, rather than apathetic, zombie-like young people, the main caracthers of Body Rice are deprogrammed, dysfunctional robots (...)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;in Buenos Aires 9th Festival internacional de cine independiente (Bafici)&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/32882354-5913440963987411282?l=body-rice.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://body-rice.blogspot.com/feeds/5913440963987411282/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=32882354&amp;postID=5913440963987411282' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32882354/posts/default/5913440963987411282'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32882354/posts/default/5913440963987411282'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://body-rice.blogspot.com/2007/05/bafici.html' title='BAFICI'/><author><name>lucifer</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04948248009626903710</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32882354.post-417100740686238571</id><published>2007-04-16T18:45:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-04-16T18:53:21.915-07:00</updated><title type='text'>BUENOS AIRES INTERNATIONAL FILM FEST</title><content type='html'>ARGENTINA-&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;BODY RICE em competição oficial internacional ganhou este Sábado o prémio de Melhor realizador do festival.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;BODY RICE in oficial competition-new prize in Buenos Aires- Best Director&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;O júri do festival portenho foi constituído pelos realizadores Pablo Trapero (mondo grua, la bonaferense) e Marc Recha, por Frédéric Maire, director artístico do Festival de Locarno, Robert Koehler, Roman Gutek, distribuidor polaco e director do Festival Internacional Era New Horizons, Francesco Di Pace, crítico de cinema italiano, e Maxine Baker.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/32882354-417100740686238571?l=body-rice.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://body-rice.blogspot.com/feeds/417100740686238571/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=32882354&amp;postID=417100740686238571' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32882354/posts/default/417100740686238571'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32882354/posts/default/417100740686238571'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://body-rice.blogspot.com/2007/04/buenos-aires-international-film-fest.html' title='BUENOS AIRES INTERNATIONAL FILM FEST'/><author><name>lucifer</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04948248009626903710</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32882354.post-396119141332317832</id><published>2007-03-23T09:36:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-03-23T09:40:43.496-07:00</updated><title type='text'>VARIETY</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_S32BY_sA0nc/RgQC-FjC8PI/AAAAAAAAAAo/1rKAcW0imPY/s1600-h/vlf070323.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5045160748226113778" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://bp0.blogger.com/_S32BY_sA0nc/RgQC-FjC8PI/AAAAAAAAAAo/1rKAcW0imPY/s320/vlf070323.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;in VARIETY March, 21 2007&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Mexico City Film Festival&lt;br /&gt;Body Rice&lt;br /&gt;(Portugal)&lt;br /&gt;By &lt;a href="http://www.variety.com/index.asp?layout=bio&amp;peopleID=1207"&gt;ROBERT KOEHLER&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;An Atalanta Filmes release (in Portugal) of a Paolo Branco presentation of a Clap Filmes production. (International sales: Madragoa Filmes, Lisbon.) Produced by Paolo Branco. Directed, written by Hugo Vieira da Silva. With: Sylta Fee Wegmann, Alice Dwyer, Julika Jenkins, Andre Hennicke, Pedro Hestnes, Luis Guerra, Luis Soveral.(German, Portuguese dialogue) Portuguese filmmaker Hugo Vieira da Silva makes a bold transition from doc shorts to "Body Rice," a debut feature that skirts the edges of narrative and palpably conveys the drift and anomie of young Germans sent to an "alternative" community in southern Portugal. Local January opening spawned a public debate over the pic, and wide fest embrace (including prizes in Locarno and Mexico City) will lead to further notoriety and possible arthouse distrib buys.&lt;br /&gt;Vieira da Silva smoothly joins the esteemed company of other young Iberoamerican helmers like Lisandro Alonso ("Los Muertos"), Albert Serra ("Honor de Cavalleria") and Paz Encina ("Paraguayan Hammock"), interested more in image and sound than psychology and dramatics.&lt;br /&gt;Cast of pro German and Portuguese thesps is asked to work largely without words -- the nearly two-hour film contains less than 10 minutes of spoken dialogue, much of that in brief fragments -- and let their bodies do the talking. But the intensely observant manner in which the final results are put onscreen commands similarly intense involvement from viewers primed for a kind of "silent" cinema with sound.&lt;br /&gt;Pre-credits passage set during the first Gulf War in what may be a Lisbon hotel shows Julia (Alice Dwyer), looking every bit the "bad girl," observing the routines of housekeepers. Credits section is yet another isolated chunk of action, this time in grainy black-and-white, showing wild Berlin youth before the Wall fell. (Vieira da Silva culled footage from Christoph Doering's experimental 1979 feature, "3302.") By the time dissolute teen Katrin (Sylta Fee Wegmann) arrives in the lonely Alentejo area south of Lisbon, a pattern of youth in search of meaning -- or perhaps tired of the search -- has been established.&lt;br /&gt;Characters are never identified on camera, but focus on Katrin's every move places her in the foreground of Vieira da Silva's compositions and beautifully choreographed moving shots, with Julia -- already well ensconced in the strange German-run community -- as her pal.&lt;br /&gt;Initially devised as a doc, "Body Rice" is based on considerable research and firsthand observation of similar experimental camps designed to push wayward German youth toward more responsible behavior. But with Katrin as aud's eyes and ears, it's clear that this group living arrangement has become something closer to a long vacation from reality, punctuated by all-day, all-night raves set to techno music.&lt;br /&gt;Pic enforces firm suspension of judgment toward the lifestyles onscreen and absolute denial of the psychological or social purposes underlying the place itself. Rather, pic develops as the characters watch and/or rub up against one another -- whether it's Katrin getting to know ne'er-do-well teen Pedro (Luis Guerra) or middle-aged epileptic Joaquim (Pedro Hestnes) showing her some empathy and suggesting he may want more. Even a shot that could have been just a conventionally pretty moment -- Julia watching a nude Katrin wade the local lake -- here explodes with unstated sexual tension.&lt;br /&gt;Pic easily alternates between passages of pure play (kids gleefully playing in a paradise of their own making, Katrin enjoying a dancing robot)and absolute gravity (Dieter beating his dog, a drowned unidentified person being retrieved from the lake). Appropriately, if frustratingly for some auds, nothing is resolved for members of a generation sated with the "doom-and-void" music of Joy Division, X-Mal Deutschland and Einsturzende Neubauten, which fills the soundtrack with rare sonic power.&lt;br /&gt;Highly disciplined perfs belie the characters' generally fatigued air, with actors operating not unlike Robert Bresson's actor "models." Vieira da Silva finds striking collaborators for his total-cinema effect in lenser Paulo Ares, editor Paulo MilHomens and the sound team of Pedro Melo, Gerard Rousseau and Elsa Ferreira.&lt;br /&gt;Camera (Lightfilm/Tobis Portuguese color), Paulo Ares; editor, Paulo MilHomens; music, Joey Beltram, X-Mal Deutschland, Einsturzende Neubauten, Joy Division, Hilliard Ensemble; costume designer, Maria Gambina; hair/makeup, Eva Graca; sound (Dolby Digital), Pedro Melo, Gerard Rousseau, Elsa Ferreira; supervising sound editor, Ferreira, Goncalo Brum; assistant director, Natali Rajak; casting, Silke Marquardt-Koch (Germany), Rita Pinto Leite (Portugal).

La cinta se presenta a competición en la Sección Oficial del 8º Festival Internacional de Cine con una propuesta que huye de la narrativa lineal y construye la historia con diferentes lenguajes artísticos, desde el arte instalación al performance.Body Rice es la historia de Katrin, una joven alemana con problemas de adaptación social que es enviada a participar en un programa de reeducación en Alentejo (Portugal), una región que el director de la película definió como un territorio “blanco” donde es posible “escribir y vivir otras experiencias, sin fronteras sociales”. La joven no logra establecer allí ninguna relación con el entorno, severo y vacío socialmente pero traba amistad con Juli y Pedro con quienes “deambula en el fin del mundo europeo”, dijo Da Silva.La cinta nació de un proyecto de documental sobre las diferentes experiencias alternativas que se estaban desarrollando en esta región portuguesa. Los protagonistas de la cinta “cambian de vida por la ausencia” dijo Da Silva. Les obligan a romper con sus referencias culturales y necesitan comunicarse y “no son necesarias las palabras, no te sirven en ese contexto”.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div

type='text'>João Lopes</title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;Este texto foi publicado na revista «6ª»/Diário de Notícias (12 Jan. 2006), com o título ‘Fragmentos de modernidade’.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;O actual contexto do cinema português é absolutamente trágico. E isso nada tem a ver com o facto de considerarmos que os filmes são “bons” ou “maus” (nunca estaremos de acordo e, creio, não é por isso que vem grande mal ao mundo). Tem a ver, isso sim, com o apagamento da própria ideia de um cinema português no interior do mercado – e, um dia destes, com a sua metódica exclusão do espaço da própria produção. Vivemos, de facto, um tempo de diluição das audiências específicas de cinema. Na prática, dir-se-ia que apenas temos fenómenos televisivos que, pontualmente, se conseguem “transferir” para os territórios do cinema, destruindo por dentro a sua especificidade. Neste contexto, os equívocos só se poderão acentuar através de um filme como «Body Rice», primeira longa-metragem de ficção de Hugo Vieira da Silva (depois de alguns trabalhos na área documental). Em primeiro lugar, porque «Body Rice» é um intransigente e coerente objecto de cinema que não pactua com as exigências “narrativas” ou os códigos de “verosimilhança” impostos pelas leis televisivas dominantes – trata-se de encenar, como uma espécie de drama suspenso e ritualizado, a vida de um grupo de jovens alemães enviados, nos anos 80, para o Alentejo, ao abrigo de projectos experimentais de reintegração social. Depois, porque «Body Rice» recusa submeter-se a qualquer uma das provas de “portugalidade” que, tantas vezes, de modo tão demagógico, se exigem aos filmes portugueses – o filme, embora enraízado em factos concretos, tende para uma abstracção paradoxal que, singularmente, o aproxima do conceito teatral e plástico da performance. Enfim, porque «Body Rice» possui uma lógica de modernidade que, face ao imperialismo formal da telenovela e dos reality shows, só pode transformá-lo num objecto entregue à sua serena condição selvagem. De onde vem essa lógica? Da aposta na criação de um universo de representação que esteja para além das regras e dispositivos clássicos do “retrato psicológico”, sobretudo dessa “psicologia” que reduz personagens e situações a padrões deterministas e renováveis. Não creio que, ao longo das suas duas horas de duração, o filme consiga manter em todos os seus fragmentos a mesma intensidade dramática e a mesma subtileza formal. Mas os seus “desequilíbrios” são também a prova real dos seus riscos. Aliás, a opção por uma estrutura fragmentária traduz, não a vontade de apropriação do real em “cenas”, mas sim a afirmação de um desejo de narrativa que não se limita a cumprir programas mais ou menos académicos. Poderá perguntar-se: mas então o que há de “português” em tudo isto? Na verdade, muito, já que somos levados a redefinir alguns aspectos do mapa imaginário do nosso país (por exemplo, recusando qualquer imagem pitoresca do Alentejo). Ao mesmo tempo, «Body Rice» é um objecto que tende para uma estranha e envolvente neutralidade geográfica, como se o nosso mundo contemporâneo se fragmentasse, também ele, num mapa cujas coordenadas não conseguem estabilizar. Por tudo isso, este é também um filme de perturbante actualidade simbólica.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/32882354-4816075310573072333?l=body-rice.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://body-rice.blogspot.com/feeds/4816075310573072333/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=32882354&amp;postID=4816075310573072333' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32882354/posts/default/4816075310573072333'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32882354/posts/default/4816075310573072333'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://body-rice.blogspot.com/2007/02/joo-lopes.html' title='João Lopes'/><author><name>lucifer</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04948248009626903710</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32882354.post-117103618966201580</id><published>2007-02-09T07:19:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2007-02-09T07:57:52.793-08:00</updated><title type='text'>MEXICO CITY 2007(FICCO)</title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/5644/3602/1600/620580/images.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/5644/3602/320/689397/images.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anunciada a line up do FICCO 2007&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;BODY RICE em competição oficial&lt;br /&gt;BODY RICE in the official competition&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;em&gt;(...)

Mas uma coisa muito interessante nisto é eu poder-me distanciar-me do sítio de onde sou originário.” E contudo, não são as personagens de “Body Rice” um pouco o espelho inverso dessa deslocação? “Um filme tem sempre a ver com a pessoa que o faz. Mas eu não gosto muito dessa visão psicanalítica. O que eu espero é que o filme sobreviva por si mesmo."Acrescenta: “No entanto, essa ideia de uma pessoa se afastar de um sítio e pensá-lo, acho muito interessante, porque a deslocação permite viver uma perspectiva muito diferente. Se tu estiveres muito próximo de algo, isso parece-te uma coisa, mas se te afastares, parece outra. Não estou a dizer qual é a verdade, há é perspectivas diferentes. Acho que tenho espírito de permanentemente saltar de ponto de vista e poder ver à frente como atrás e, claro, a minha vida também tem um pouco a ver com isso: um incómodo meu de viver com uma coisa, sempre.”Não esquecer: Hugo Vieira da Silva passou igualmente pelo direito. E garante que na Alemanha descobriu uma produção delirante de normas jurídicas. “É o país que eu conheço onde há mais regras para tudo, mas isso provoca precisamente o contrário. O contrário é uma atitude reactiva, sendo Berlim a cidade que ainda tem, ou mantém, mais punks na Europa: uma sociedade civil permanentemente inquieta.” O efeito é claro, da Alemanha resulta o país onde as pessoas mais viajam para fora, segundo ele. “E há inclusive uma palavra em alemão que designa aqueles que saem: ‘aussteiger’, que são os que saem de dentro para fora, saindo de uma norma para outra que seria directamente o inverso. Acho que há uma necessidade de fuga. Mas o engraçado é que por vezes eles reconstroem no novo território uma outra série de normas.”No fundo, o que seduziu Hugo Vieira da Silva e o levou a “Body Rice” foi tentar perceber coisas tão simples “como uma pessoa a passar de um ponto para o outro.” Da Alemanha para Portugal, do Porto para Berlim, será que importa, verdadeiramente, o sentido? Essencialmente, o que o preocupa “é pôr em causa a concepção de corpo, ultrapassar a ideia de um corpo romântico, pensar como é possível o corpo existir por outras vias.” E introduzir ruído, distúrbio, desorganização. Por palavras suas: “criar problemas às pessoas, obrigá-las a pôr questões a si próprias sobre o que é um filme e o que é a vida.”Então, o que é “Body Rice”? Uma coreografia da desolação e da aridez humana? Um exercício de pós-estética cinematográfica? Um filme punk? “Punk? Talvez.”“É a minha forma de sentir o mundo. Aquele local e aquela situação são muito visíveis, saltam à vista. Penso que as pessoas, os corpos que agem, desviando-se das coisas, perdendo aos poucos o sentido de moral ou de família, e até mesmo de orientação sexual, são características do meu tempo. Um sentir do tempo presente.”&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/32882354-117092806836011913?l=body-rice.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://body-rice.blogspot.com/feeds/117092806836011913/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=32882354&amp;postID=117092806836011913' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32882354/posts/default/117092806836011913'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32882354/posts/default/117092806836011913'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://body-rice.blogspot.com/2007/02/premiere-body-rice-3-parte.html' title='Premiere BODY RICE- 3 PARTE'/><author><name>lucifer</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04948248009626903710</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32882354.post-117085501061028252</id><published>2007-02-07T05:25:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2007-02-07T05:50:17.770-08:00</updated><title type='text'>PREMIERE - entrevista compl. PARTE 2</title><content type='html'>2:: Filmar a ausência&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Em boa verdade, não existe em “Body Rice” uma narrativa legível, explícita. Não há uma ponta de moralismo, de análise. A câmara limita-se a acompanhar as personagens, a mostrá-las. Os diálogos reduzem-se ao mínimo (na sua maioria em germânico), com personagens, também elas, desligadas do meio onde circulam, elipticamente, à imagem de zombies. “Personagens no limite de não serem personagens”, já que o que interessava mesmo a Hugo Vieira da Silva era explorar os limites: “até onde se podia chegar, até onde se podia aguentar uma narrativa, com outros modos de trabalhar personagens que não fosse pelo diálogo ou pelo habitual esquema de montagem puramente cinematográfico.”O realizador encontrou assim a sua forma de cinema contemporâneo: “miscigenada com outras formas artísticas.” Ou seja, as artes plásticas, a performance, a dança contemporânea, terreno a partir de onde quis criar um território muito mais fluído, importando outras formas de pensar e trabalhar, um pouco emprestadas de outras artes. “Eu tenho uma dificuldade enorme em cortar quando há uma performance de um actor, é uma coisa para mim total e inteira que tenho imensos pruridos em limitar.” E em muitos casos, percebe-se, Vieira da Silva não cortou – como na longa sequência em que uma das raparigas brinca com um pequeno robot automatizado, num registo de dualidade homem vs. máquina. Não cortou ainda, por exemplo, quando outra rapariga se entretém a pontapear um peixe fora de água que agoniza (e ele adverte para os mais sensíveis que nada de mal aconteceu ao peixe posteriormente devolvido ao lago com vida).Vamos chamar a isto um “triângulo amoroso”, definição, aliás, assaz subjectiva. Um triângulo amargurado, seco e implosivo, composto por duas raparigas alemãs, uma loura e outra morena, Katrin (Sylta Wegmann) e Julia (Alice Dwyer). Os mesmo olhares de lince ferido, as almas dilaceradas, acossadas e divagantes. O terceiro elemento, um rapaz chamado Pedro (Luís Guerra), é português, mas a nacionalidade pouco importa, pois o que predomina é o comum léxico da inadaptação, o mutismo como ordem universal. Um silêncio insustentável, mesmo quando temos filas de colunas de som com o volume no máximo, a animar raves de musica trance e tecno em baldios poeirentos.À primeira vista, a tentação é nomear isto de “angústia”. Hugo Vieira da Silva discorda: “Eu não chamo angústia, chamo ausência. A angústia traz uma coisa que tem mais a ver com o romantismo e aqui a ausência tem mais a ver com um espaço vazio, em branco, porque aquele território pode ser a nossa mente e o nosso corpo. O que as personagens procuram durante todo o filme, assim como as pessoas em geral, é expressar os seus desejos, quaisquer que sejam. Simplesmente, as minhas personagens expressam esses desejos de uma forma um bocado transvertida em relação ao que seria convencional, ou até de uma forma sexualizada, violenta, ausente. Essas expressões são pulsões que para mim também têm um sentido de vida. E por vezes, parece que estão completamente ausentes ou que não vivem. Eu acho que elas vivem absolutamente.”Ausência, evidentemente. Uma ausência dilacerada, marcada por corpos, movendo-se como num bailado ou numa performance viva (ou morta-viva?) de musical negro e pós-punk, devidamente sonorizado por temas de bandas como Siouxsie &amp; Banshees ou os “industriais” Eisterzunde Neubaten. “O que me interessa na adolescência é, por exemplo, a forma como estes ouvem música profundamente incomodativa. Ou música com um sentido político, que põe coisas em causa, por esta não ser convencional. A adolescência tem essa força e aderiu a uma coisa que não está sancionada, estabelecida”, refere Vieira da Silva. Só que a par do punk, temos em “Body Rice” o tecno, o trance e as raves que Katrin, Julia e Pedro acabam por frequentar no seio da “natureza” inóspita do Alentejo. A relação entre um gênero e outro acaba por ser natural: “o tecno alemão, e em especial o de Berlim, foi trazido pelas pessoas que vinham da Alemanha para o Alentejo. Tinha uma influência muito grande do punk, porque era um tecno alternativo, muito relacionado com a queda do Muro de Berlim, questões de ocupação (squats), situações muito incomodativas também, digamos, de afirmação de outras formas de estar e de viver.” E aqui, Hugo Vieira da Silva volta à questão inicial. “Porque há uma coisa que sempre me seduziu: como é que os alemães largavam esse mundo e iam para outro território que era totalmente o inverso do sítio de onde viviam?”&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/32882354-117085501061028252?l=body-rice.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://body-rice.blogspot.com/feeds/117085501061028252/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=32882354&amp;postID=117085501061028252' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32882354/posts/default/117085501061028252'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32882354/posts/default/117085501061028252'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://body-rice.blogspot.com/2007/02/premiere-entrevista-compl-parte-2.html' title='PREMIERE - entrevista compl.

O pó acumula-se no vidro e denuncia a aridez daquele território que é o Alentejo mas podia ser qualquer outro lugar de ninguém. Body Rice, a primeira longa-metragem do realizador português Hugo Vieira da Silva (Porto, 1974), atravessa uma planície deserta numa contemplação adormecida e desistente. Um modo de olhar aquela terra como se tudo e nada dependessem dela. No início, ainda o vidro do carro não deixou perceber onde estamos, uma voz masculina pergunta: “É como imaginaste?”. E ouve-se de uma rapariga: “Não imaginei nada”. Body Rice é sobre isso mesmo. A incapacidade de previsão, a demissão de uma responsabilidade, um deixar estar e deixar ser sem noção de futuro.&lt;br /&gt;A legenda inicial contextualiza, fugazmente, o tempo e a acção. Durante os anos 80 jovens alemães eram enviados para o Alentejo ao abrigo de um programa de reinserção social. Miúdos problemáticos, com pesadas heranças familiares, que eram deixados ao cuidado destes projectos controlados pela igreja protestante. Retirados das suas famílias e enviados para outro país – não só Portugal, aqui por se respirarem ventos pós-revolucionários, mas também América Latina e Europa de Leste –, o programa acreditava que a extracção do mal devia ser feita a partir da raiz. Logo, a deslocação tinha contornos de limpeza emocional. A maior parte dos responsáveis pelos jovens não possuíam particular formação para o fazerem e, no triângulo Aljezur-Santa Marta-Odemira, encontravam-se punks, protestantes, ex-prisioneiros e terroristas do exército da República Federal da Alemanha. Um ambiente pesado e quase paralelo à realidade nacional, cujo contacto com a população local vivia mais de uma ocupação que de uma partilha de espaço. O programa, que ainda hoje existe, sustentava-se em teorias obscuras devedoras de um pensamento neo-reaccionário muito em voga nos anos 70. E com o passar dos anos foram-lhe sendo apontados casos de abuso de menores, fugas e mortes. É este universo, particularmente ambíguo, que se capta num filme quase mudo, ou onde as palavras são conscientes de uma finita inutilidade.&lt;br /&gt;Se as palavras são parcas, os olhares vagos e os movimentos tensos, passa pelo filme, e é isso que importa registar, um trabalho em torno do corpo, com a inscrição no espaço, o confronto com o outro, e o abandono e superação da consciência a darem o mote para uma reflexão sobre possibilidades de suspensão. O filme, se suspende o olhar nos corpos, fá-lo porque estes trabalham a partir de mecanismos, dinâmicas e pressupostos coreográficos bastante evidentes. Ou evidentes para quem quiser ver na fixação de movimentos (porque ficção) uma proposta de combinação entre a bidimensionalidade do cinema e a tridimensionalidade da dança. É que o filme entra por um território onde é o corpo que comanda o destino da (eventual) personagem. Deixamos de tratar de personagens estruturadas para observar derivas. Da narrativa para a performance, desta para o espaço, deste para o plano fixo.&lt;br /&gt;Hugo Vieira da Silva registou o modo de actuação e comportamento destes corpos a partir do método de Composição em Tempo Real, desenvolvido pelo coreógrafo João Fiadeiro onde o corpo existe ao serviço de um processo criativo, no qual se pervertem constantemente as regras de criação. As sequências que entram pelas festas de trance, planando sobre a agitada e aparentemente descontrolada movimentação suada daquelas pessoas, registam a forma como as possibilidades de envolvimento e clímax são suspensas. Cada gesto esconde um outro e põe em causa a experimentação. Arrisca um movimento sem memória ao mesmo tempo que acumula “fugas para a frente”. Exprime, nesse escape, a perda de noção de racionalidade, verticalidade e de limite. E ultrapassa a mera disposição num espaço concentrado. Espaço temporal e espaço físico.&lt;br /&gt;Razão pela qual, se sentimos que ao filme falta uma maior contextualização histórico-político-social – ouvimos uma breve notícia sobre o primeiro conflito no Golfo e, pela banda sonora, percebemos que as feridas abertas pela queda do Muro de Berlim não estão completamente saradas –, também compreendemos porque se opta por uma focalização naqueles corpos, eles sim, descontextualizados. É a única hipótese de ordem. O comportamento que exibem, com provas de afecto não uns pelos outros mas em relação a um brinquedo robotizado descoberto numa lixeira, é incapaz, por exemplo, de aceitar a irracionalidade dos animais, e por isso são pontapeados ou ignorados. As figuras – todas, desde as raparigas que se arrastam nos hotéis, ao amigo português (Luís Guerra a mostrar porque é a revelação da dança dos últimos anos), e mesmo o epiléptico que opõe a transcendência provocada pela música electrónica ao descontrolo nervoso da doença –, acusam um mal estar, um sentimento de rejeição e um sentido de ausência que advém da paisagem pálida que lhes condiciona o movimento.&lt;br /&gt;Por isso, Body Rice (de título tão enigmático quanto frágil é a composição de uma vagem de arroz) limita-se a olhar para eles. A deixar-se estar ali. Hugo Vieira da Silva força a concentração naqueles corpos, dessacralizados, híbridos e ressacados, não lhes exigindo uma tomada de posição. Não querendo ler neles um discurso político de resistência nem de desistência. Nessa posição, dir-se-ia que incompreensivelmente amoral na ausência de moral dos noutros, há quem leia presunção, vazio, redundância, inabilidade, desfoque, ausência de ideias ou retórica.&lt;br /&gt;Mas, na verdade, se tudo isso pode ser lido no filme, também se pode tentar olhar para este filme-estado de espírito perguntando como nos podemos relacionar com a consciência. Que lugar é o do corpo numa paisagem, num contexto, face a um futuro condenado? Como agir, comportar-se, relacionar? O filme não propõe alternativas nem organiza as várias histórias que por ali se cruzam. Deixa que a câmara siga os corpos, como numa longa noite de festa. Como se não houvesse amanhã. Porque, como diz uma delas, ninguém se sente. É tudo uma espécie de ausência. É tudo masoquistamente ausente.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/32882354-117078792865362055?l=body-rice.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://body-rice.blogspot.com/feeds/117078792865362055/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=32882354&amp;postID=117078792865362055' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32882354/posts/default/117078792865362055'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32882354/posts/default/117078792865362055'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://body-rice.blogspot.com/2007/02/revista-obscena.html' title='Revista Obscena'/><author><name>lucifer</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04948248009626903710</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32882354.post-117076840535946677</id><published>2007-02-06T05:24:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2007-02-06T05:26:45.376-08:00</updated><title type='text'>speaking bodies (cineuropa.org) interview</title><content type='html'>January 31, 2007 (ROTTERDAM)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;SPEAKING BODIES&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Currently living in Berlin, 32-year old Portuguese director Hugo Vieira da Silva presented his first feature film, &lt;a href="http://cineuropa.org/film.aspx?documentID=65791"&gt;Body Rice&lt;/a&gt;, in &lt;a href="http://www.filmfestivalrotterdam.com/" target="_blank"&gt;Rotterdam&lt;/a&gt;. Produced by Paulo Branco for &lt;a href="http://cineuropa.org/prodcompany.aspx?documentID=31593"&gt;Clap Filmes&lt;/a&gt;, the film rejects a linear narrative and reveals a director on the crossroads of several artistic influences: music, dance, installations and performance art.Cineuropa: Body Rice was initially conceived as a documentary about alternative ways of life in Alentejo (in the south of Portugal) and about German young people who had been sent there as part of social reintegration programmes. Why did you switch to fiction?Hugo Vieira da Silva: I felt seduced by the people I had met there, people living in communities. I thought that doing a documentary would be a good idea but then, as I was shooting, I felt I could fall into a kind of morbid curiosity about them and that I would probably violate their privacy. That's why I tried to distance myself from the traditional documentary and create something that we can ultimately call fiction. My script, however, is a patchwork of stories I was told by a lot of those people, who are not in the cast, but who take part in the film indirectly. They were my co-writers.How did you direct your actors, considering that there was very little dialogue and that they had to express their desires and frustrations through their bodies against the landscape? Did you see Alentejo as a character?The way I approached the parts with them was related to the themes of the film: the absence of cultural references, the erasure of a social background… I wanted a radical cut. We brought them to Alentejo and they had a cultural shock. Some of them reacted aggressively at the start as they were used to building characters using different methods. I wanted to empty the psychological side of the characters and get away from linear narrative. But drawing out their psychological side and focusing on their bodies doesn't mean that they have become hollow.Europe is a very normative territory and Alentejo is a bit far from that, at least it was in the early 1990s, when the film was set. There was a lot of freedom there. It was seen by many Germans as a place where they could start a new and alternative kind of life. I was so interested in the landscape that I tried to avoid filming the sky. I film the ground, the dust. There is a clash being the bodies and the space.Raves are also a kind of a non-normative party, that's why I decided to film them over there under the open sky. At a rave, bodies can express themselves freely. For one of the scenes we built a kind of wall of loudspeakers… It was almost like an art installation.Before Body Rice you directed documentaries about contemporary art movements, which is a hybrid domain, a mixture of different disciplines. Does your film follow that trend, evoking music, performance and art installations?As an artist, I see myself as a mediator between the world outside and my own work. My film must reflect the moment I am living, but cinema has always been interdisciplinary. I am dealing with film material but the way I do that is probably the expression of what is happening nowadays: installation, performance art, contemporary dance (which I am very fond of).You tend to reject linear narrative. Nevertheless, you include a clip of an experimental German film from the late 1980s, which works like a possible flashback of the characters.Some people think cinema is the art of narrative. I am not interested in the kind of cinema that has a strong narrative and cause-effect events. I guess sometimes we can fall into the trap of the commonplace, which does not reflect reality. However, I needed to have a storyline so I used that clip, which is set in Berlin when the wall was about to fall, and that opens a possibility to what the characters may have experienced before being sent to Alentejo. With Body Rice screening in several festivals (Hong Kong, Mexico City, Buenos Aires, Bangkok) do you have the time to focus on a new film?I am developing a new project and I hope it can go into production in the upcoming months. It will be a Portuguese/German co-production set in Berlin(...)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://cineuropa.org/interview.aspx?lang=en&amp;documentID=72649"&gt;http://cineuropa.org/interview.aspx?lang=en&amp;amp;documentID=72649&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/32882354-117076840535946677?l=body-rice.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://body-rice.blogspot.com/feeds/117076840535946677/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=32882354&amp;postID=117076840535946677' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32882354/posts/default/117076840535946677'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32882354/posts/default/117076840535946677'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://body-rice.blogspot.com/2007/02/speaking-bodies-cineuropaorg-interview.html' title='speaking bodies (cineuropa.org) interview'/><author><name>lucifer</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04948248009626903710</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32882354.post-117076732372222579</id><published>2007-02-06T05:05:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2007-02-06T05:20:17.626-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Revista PREMIERE (blog) PARTE 1</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;(...)Esta reportagem surgiu na sequência de uma entrevista minha realizada ao jovem cineasta português Hugo Vieira da Silva, a qual pode ainda ser oportunamente lida na edição de Dezembro último da revista Premiere. Naturalmente, e devido aos constrangimentos naturais a que o espaço de uma revista deste tipo obedece, raramente é possível publicar entrevistas na sua íntegra. Nem sequer é isso que acontece a seguir (não o teria de ser e tornar-se-ia demasiado exaustivo). Tal como não se repetirá por aqui uma palavra das que foram então, publicadas. A verdade é que a abundância do depoimento gerado (e não utilizado) na ocasião da nossa conversa sobre “Body Rice” inspirou-me a dar-lhes um uso mais devido e leal. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;(...)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt; “Body Rice” pode não ser, na minha opinião, o filme que o cinema português merecia. Mas é invulgar e combativo, cruzando um inquietante retrato de ausência juvenil com a “tradição” das artes plásticas e performativas. A meus olhos, esse abismo neutraliza-o. Contudo, a favor da diversidade de “outros” olhares (e porque estamos também perante um exercício que leva em conta a noção do “outro”), deixo o que até aqui tinha ficado por dizer sobre as origens de “Body Rice”.David Mariano&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;NO LUGAR DO CORPO&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;1: O DESERTO&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;De Berlim para o Alentejo Hugo Vieira da Silva fez a si próprio uma pergunta: “Como é que um tipo larga a casa em Berlim e mete-se a viver no meio de um deserto?” Bem resumido, terá sido assim que este cineasta iniciou a sua estreia na longa-metragem depois de uma filmografia até aí composta por vários documentários: “Arte Pública”, “Grupo Puzzle” e “Confesso – Albuquerque Mendes”. Antes, “Body Rice” não era para ser uma ficção. Começou por ser uma curta. Depois teve um formato de documentário. Só mais tarde transformou-se na primeira obra deste jovem realizador portuense, hoje radicado em Berlim, formado em Direito e, mais tarde, em Cinema pela Escola Superior de Teatro e Cinema. Tem 32 anos.Dos 32, dedicou quatro anos a concretizar este filme. E em quatro anos, é sabido, tudo pode acontecer. Em quatro anos, já vimos, “Body Rice” foi tudo menos uma ficção. Reparo: “Body Rice” é tudo menos uma ficção. Quatro anos: porque demorou a filmar? “Porque estava continuamente a ser reformulado e o desafio era esse. As coisas mudaram, as pessoas mudaram, os décors mudaram, as tuas ideias mudaram e havia que ter a convicção e o sentido de que aquilo que se acabaria por fazer nunca seria aquilo que se planeara. O importante era eu defrontar-me com o que tinha pela frente, com os meios que tinha. E conseguir manter essa energia para mim foi um desafio muito importante, ter a capacidade de reformulá-lo em permanência.”Hugo Vieira da Silva conhece muito bem o Alentejo (é esse o “deserto” que questiona), lugar com o qual tem uma relação especial. Uma relação que a maioria do país não partilha ou se esqueceu de partilhar porque o foi ignorando (a não ser de passagem pela A2 Sul a caminho do “britânico” Algarve). A sua primeira tentação foi sair de lá com mais um documentário, projecto financiado pela Gulbenkian, através de vários work-shops experimentais que desenvolveu com quem ali vivia. Em particular, pessoas deslocalizadas, fora do seu sítio de origem, por opção própria ou obrigação (e a lista é vasta: desde biofamílias a ex-prisioneiros alemães, passando por viajantes ocasionais aos próprios alentejanos). Mas a experiência acabou por ser mais do que observar pessoas. Ganhou personagens. Já não queria um retrato da realidade. Queria mais. E a dada altura, o realizador achou que seria importante para ele distanciar-se, porque “uma forma de distanciar e proteger as pessoas era fazer uma ficção.”História de vários jovens delinquentes lançados na árida paisagem alentejana em projectos de reintegração social, obra desconcertante de corpos desolados num mundo selvagem, monótono, estéril. São eles, as “pessoas” que Vieira da Silva tentou proteger. Adolescentes, portugueses e germânicos. Solitários mudos, de olhar vago e perdido. Esquecidos, abandonados, a rebentar foguetes por diversão ou a atirar pedras a lagoas que secam num qualquer Verão quente. Não apenas, há ainda antigos hippies a morar em roulottes estacionadas, velhos aldeões a ver o tempo passar, crianças livres e nuas a chapinharem na lama. Escrevemos “história”? Talvez a “história” de uma pintura visualmente despojada, em confronto com o seu privado processo de criação. Em ruptura, e ele chega a afirmar que o que pretendia era “uma espécie de pintura branca onde fosse possível recomeçar tudo de novo.” Nunca uma “história” comum, banal, embora a banalidade dos dias fosse um ponto em comum.“Eu fui parar à ficção um pouco levado pelas circunstâncias. Intuitivamente, acabei por encontrar a minha própria forma de trabalhar os actores, um bocado caótica, não-convencional. Há um lado quase de partir os materiais e ligá-los em si mesmo.” Os materiais “partidos”, esclareça-se, seriam os actores, o som, a imagem, a narrativa. “Sobretudo, recusar uma série de coisas que não me interessavam no cinema. Coisas que eu sabia que não queria, e com as quais não me interessava ir por esse caminho.”Como assim? “Eu quero fazer um filme de que eu goste, não é?” Certo. “E há alguns filmes no cinema que eu gosto e há outros que não me interessam nada.” De acordo. Logo? “Não me interessava a narrativa tal como é entendida nos cânones de argumento: essa questão da causa-efeito. Acho que as coisas podem ter outra lógica hoje em dia e que essa forma de narrar corresponde a um tempo que já não é o meu. A fórmula canônica do cinema de narrar é qualquer coisa tem que ver com um tempo, um sentido mitológico, uma narrativa, um sentido quase freudiano de causa-efeito, darwinista. No cinema interessa-me fazer qualquer coisa que tenha que ver comigo e com o tempo em que eu vivo, com este momento presente.”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;(continua)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;David Mariano&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;in&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://premiere-portugal.blogspot.com/2007/02/body-rice-de-hugo-vieira-da-silva.html"&gt;http://premiere-portugal.blogspot.com/2007/02/body-rice-de-hugo-vieira-da-silva.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/32882354-117076732372222579?l=body-rice.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://body-rice.blogspot.com/feeds/117076732372222579/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=32882354&amp;postID=117076732372222579' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32882354/posts/default/117076732372222579'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32882354/posts/default/117076732372222579'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://body-rice.blogspot.com/2007/02/revista-premiere-blog-parte-1.html' title='Revista PREMIERE (blog) PARTE 1'/><author><name>lucifer</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04948248009626903710</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32882354.post-117062502146452341</id><published>2007-02-04T13:30:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2007-02-04T13:37:01.476-08:00</updated><title type='text'>ROTTERDAM 2007 cinema of the future</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/5644/3602/1600/933203/ROTTTTTTT2.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/5644/3602/400/603306/ROTTTTTTT2.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;BODY RICE- CINEMA OF THE FUTURE (STURM UND DRANG)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;Extrait from the catalogue IFFR 2007&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;Joy Division and dancing with robots. A young German delinquent is sent to Portugal for rehabilitation programme, where she and her fellow sufferers are plagued by apathy and loneliness in the decimated landscape of the Alentejo.&lt;br /&gt;While the hedonistic optimism of the 1990s now really does date from a different century, that other form of escapism, apathetic doom thinking that is largely associated with the 1980s, is back in fashion. That is certainly the case in the young-delinquent drama Body Rice, which follows several young people in a desert-like part of the Alentejo in Portugal. Hugo Vieira, making his debut as director, does so in intense, faded images in which the camera largely points at the body language and the moments of contemplation.The German teenager Katrin is sent to Portugal as part of a reintegration programme for delinquent youths. In the barren surroundings of the Alentejo she meets Julia, who is also there for a social programme, and Pedro who lives locally but walks around equally lost. The acquaintanceship however leads nowhere. These young people only seem to feel in the right place (‘happy’ would be too big a word) when they can dance to very loud techno. Comic (also too big a word) highpoint is the dance scene with a mini robot. That doesn't change the lonely, selfish attitude.

"Um corpo de arroz é delicado, fragmentário, não se consegue compor. Um corpo que se extravasa e se põe em causa. Um pós-corpo."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Body Rice, a primeira longa-metragem de Hugo Vieira da Silva, de 32 anos, estreia-se amanhã. O filme surge num triângulo: entre o Porto natal, Berlim, a cidade escolhida como lar, e o Alentejo de férias, aventuras e ligações emocionais. Um triângulo unido pela transgressão. "No final dos anos 80 o Porto era uma cidade pequena onde chegavam poucas coisas, mas, por outro lado, havia um ambiente alternativo", conta o realizador. "Lembro-me de ter visto muito cedo um concerto de Nick Cave no Rivoli ou música experimental nos Frigoríficos do Bacalhau." Talvez houvesse uma proximidade cultural com Berlim, para onde se mudou no início de 90. "Quando eu cheguei ainda havia resquícios da divisão", recorda Hugo. "Era uma cidade de renegados, aqueles que eram pagos para ir para lá, a massa trabalhadora, e depois uma quantidade imensa de punks. Era um meio contra-societário. Ali explodiam as vanguardas, as experiências, a cultura alternativa."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Quantos alemães deixaram casa e emprego, mudaram de vida e instalaram-se num monte da planície alentejana, sem luz eléctrica? Os hippies de sandálias encontraram naquele fim do mundo o seu espaço de isolamento. Niguém se mete na vida de ninguém. "Um território com zonas escondidas, onde se passavam coisas bizarras, incomodativas."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;É nesse espaço de liberdade, algures, no final dos anos 80, que se situa Body Rice. Ao que parece, alguns jovens delinquentes alemães foram enviados para o Alentejo integrados num projecto de reinserção social. Esta informação, dada por uma legenda inicial, vale apenas como ponto de partida para o filme. A Hugo Vieira da Silva, apesar do esforço de reconstituição histórica (nos penteados, roupas, carros, no ambiente, na música em vinil dos Joy Division, Einstuerzende Neubauten e X-Mal Deutschland), não interessava documentar "o projecto", investigar os seus resultados ou questionar os seus métodos. "O projecto" é só pretexto para filmar corpos com diferentes vontades: "ali encontramos três camadas de pessoas, as que vieram porque quiseram, as que vieram obrigadas e as que estão lá porque ficaram, por inércia, que são os alentejanos. Interessa-me este movimento volitivo, do desejo de ir, de alterar a vida. Interessa-me o facto de haver pessoas que vivem como querem, mesmo que seja de uma forma diferente. Não me interessa nada fazer juízos de valor sobre isso."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;No filme, estas vontades expressam-se em corpos - mais do que em personagens ou em narrativas. Corpos que se arrastam, pés que mal saem do chão. Corpos que se agitam, desconjuntados, em raves a céu aberto. Corpos que consomem cigarros, um a seguir ao outro, e que caem para o lado de cansaço. No elenco predominantemente alemão, destaca-se o corpo do bailarino português Luís Guerra, "energia em estado puro", lado visível de um processo de trabalho que esteve afinal muito mais próximo da dança do que do cinema, com pesquisa de movimentos mais do que de personagens. As artes contaminam-se com prazer. Até porque Hugo Vieira da Silva não se sente realizador a tempo inteiro. "Poderia escrever, fazer fotografia ou ser coreógrafo com o mesmo à-vontade com que faço cinema e nem sequer descarto essas hipóteses", confessa. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Cinema de poucas palavras e diálogos parcos, Body Rice é um filme-performance, que vive num "território intermédio" entre o dito e o não- dito, entre a representação e a não-representação. "Não é preciso saber tudo sobre as personagens. As explicações estão diluídas, a narrativa aparece num nível residual. Há até momentos em que a narrativa é suspensa para dar lugar a situações performativas, que têm um valor em si mesmo." No limiar do perceptível, como o autor reconhece: "Isto é cinema mas quero saber até podemos ir." Escultura de bagos de arroz.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/32882354-116913422142506105?l=body-rice.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://body-rice.blogspot.com/feeds/116913422142506105/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=32882354&amp;postID=116913422142506105' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32882354/posts/default/116913422142506105'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32882354/posts/default/116913422142506105'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://body-rice.blogspot.com/2007/01/body-rice-dirio-de-noticas_18.html' title='BODY RICE - Diário de Noticías'/><author><name>lucifer</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04948248009626903710</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32882354.post-116913051976773836</id><published>2007-01-18T06:27:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2007-01-18T06:28:39.773-08:00</updated><title type='text'>PUBLICO- Y texto de Inês Nadais</title><content type='html'>12/1/2007&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;O "freak" é chique?&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;    &lt;br /&gt;  O tecno, os cães, os charros, o Alentejo a céu aberto (embora o céu não lhe interesse: interessa-lhe o pó, a terra, a lama), as "raves", o abandono, os "piercings", as "roulottes", a anarquia, a agricultura biológica: por momentos, pensámos que "Body Rice", a primeira longa-metragem de ficção de Hugo Vieira da Silva, era um filme sobre "freaks" (ah, o "freak": é chique!). O primeiro filme sobre "freaks" - com todos os "gadgets" - do cinema português. Ele acha que não, e nós temos que aceitar: não foi isso que ele quis ser o primeiro a filmar, e de resto não sabe onde estão (não sabe que estão onde mais se espera: nos festivais de "world music" e de trance, nas feiras de agricultura biológica, nas ruas da Baixa, a fazer malabarismo). Não é o primeiro filme sobre "freaks", ok (Roger that!). Mas há quem diga que, por ter ido a certos sítios pouco frequentados, é o primeiro filme (extra! extra!) do resto da vida do cinema português.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Como se tivesse chegado de outro planeta, diz Paulo Cunha e Silva, ex-director do Instituto das Artes: "É um filme de ruptura com o cinema português: não pela circunstância de o cinema português ter uma identidade muito fixada, mas sobretudo por se aventurar em territórios e disciplinas que não estão habituados a ser convocados por ele. Nesse sentido, é um objecto um bocadinho extraterrestre". Extraterrestre ao ponto de não parecer deste mundo, o mundo do cinema: "Apesar de ser ainda profundamente narrativo, socorre-se de uma lógica não-cinematográfica muito interessante. Está próximo da performance e das artes plásticas, mas não deixa de ser cinema. O Hugo conseguiu encontrar um dispositivo curioso que lhe permite trazer para dentro do cinema outras coisas - e, ao mesmo tempo, evocar memórias da história do cinema evitando colocar-se sob a influência delas. Não pude deixar de me lembrar de filmes como "Deserto Vermelho", do [Michelangelo] Antonioni, "O Sétimo Selo", do [Ingmar] Bergman, ou mesmo o "Land of the Dead", do [George Romero] - mas senti que eram evocações, não influências".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ele, Hugo, falará em Lisandro Alonso, Tsai Ming-liang - coprodutores de um cinema que a pós-modernidade tornou possível. "O meu cinema só podia ter acontecido agora. Dantes não havia esta liberdade de saltar do cinema para as artes visuais, para a performance", argumenta. Tinha vontade de fazer isso - e tinha vontade de um território como aquele, o Alentejo do final dos anos 80: "Aquilo era uma espécie de último deserto europeu onde conviviam famílias bio, terroristas da Rote Armee Fraktion [o grupo Baader-Meinhof], produtores de "cannabis", punks, ecologistas e, a partir de certa altura, caravanas de "travellers", autênticos "soundsystems" ambulantes com essa ideia de uma democracia sonora: podemos estacionar numa propriedade privada e fazer uma "rave". Esse confronto dos cabos e dos amplificadores com a seara alentejana era uma coisa bizarra mas fortíssima".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hugo Vieira da Silva andou por lá nessa altura e andou por lá agora, para filmar "Body Rice". E diz que o que as pessoas vinham fazer ao Alentejo - esses alemães que chegavam para mudar de vida, por vontade própria ou por deliberação do sistema - é parecido com o que ele foi lá fazer. "As pessoas tinham o impulso de virar as coisas de pernas para o ar, como se quisessem andar com as mãos no chão. Vinham da Alemanha, de um país onde - tardiamente, em relação à Europa do Maio de 68 -, as pessoas estavam a experimentar coisas: novas maneiras de habitar o território e de lidar com a propriedade, por exemplo, com o movimento "squatter". Por ser um caixote do lixo da Alemanha, Berlim era um sítio onde se podiam fazer múltiplas inscrições porque não havia ortodoxias. E o Alentejo também era assim, permeável: as pessoas que chegavam tinham essa vontade de experimentar, esse desejo quase de perdição, as que já lá estavam eram indiferentes àquilo, e essa indiferença era sedutora porque autorizava tudo". Isso está no filme, mas o filme não é sobre isso (como não é sobre "freaks", mas adiante). "Não quis fazer um "case-study" do Alentejo - até porque aquele abandono pode acontecer nas cidades. Viver em apartamentos significa isso: estarmos apartados uns dos outros. Quis virar as coisas de pernas para o ar, como esses alemães: pôr em causa a gramática do cinema, tal como aquelas pessoas puseram em causa a gramática da vida em sociedade. Também foi esse o trabalho que fiz com os actores: um trabalho de desaprendizagem", explica.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Warholiano. Mas isso foi depois: antes tinha tentado fazer um documentário. "Foi um erro, mas aprendi imenso com ele. Na altura estava a estudar cinema e queria reter aquilo tudo. Mas estava tão dentro daquele contexto que, a dada altura, percebi que não podia ser um "voyeur" desses miúdos, não podia denunciá-los [fala desses miúdos problemáticos que os tribunais alemães retiravam às famílias e que vinham para cá "reabilitar-se", do "comércio mais ou menos ilegal" que se alimentava disso, das histórias "incríveis" que a Stern e o Expresso publicaram acerca do assunto e resume: não quer ir por aí]. Converti os miúdos em co-autores do guião e avancei para uma ficção, que me pôs a uma distância de segurança e a salvo de trair essas pessoas e de me trair a mim próprio", diz. Evitar as pessoas também foi uma maneira de estar mais perto delas: "O filme emergiu do contacto com elas, mas não da intimidade delas". E emergiu, para voltarmos ao início, dessa vontade de fazer cinema com outros materiais. "Há um lado performativo evidente no filme - que não tem nada a ver com a coreografia, porque a coreografia é residual no filme. Interessam-me as ideias sobre o corpo - há ali um corpo que perde a convenção, que perde a hierarquia e os cães estão lá não como "gadgets" de uma cultura mas como prolongamento desses corpos que podem rastejar como cães, dormir como cães - e as metodologias que vêm da performance. É nisso que o meu cinema é performativo: não me interessa ir para o "set" improvisar e apanhar coisas com a câmara, interessa-me esse lado laboratorial antes do filme. A performance é aquele momento, o filme é outra coisa: há um efeito modificador na imagem e na montagem. Interessa-me trabalhar no cinema, ainda que pondo o cinema em causa".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Além da relação que estabelece com a performance, Paulo Cunha e Silva considera que há "outra novidade" em "Body Rice": "O argumento é um contra-argumento, um pretexto para um trabalho de dissecação que o realizador promove à flor da pele dos corpos. O filme não cede a essa tentação, que parecia evidente de ir ao fundo das personagens e das suas motivações, limita-se a utilizar os corpos delas como elemento narrativo". Nisso, nota, "Body Rice" é superficial, mas no sentido warholiano: "Os corpos interessam-lhe enquanto lugares de inscrição. É uma dissecação epidérmica. Não é um filme psicológico, sociológico, moral. Há uma não-topografia no filme, que tanto se aplica ao lugar onde se passa a acção como aos corpos, que funcionam como autómatos, zombies. O Hugo faz uma espécie de cinema-ecstasy: um cinema de uma alienação tal que lhe permite trabalhar os corpos como entidades que se deslocam de forma absurda, sem destino e sem objectivos".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;É aí que o sociólogo Bragança de Miranda, da Universidade Nova, encontra o gesto mais radical do filme: "O exercício de construir uma história sem personagens, ou com personagens sonâmbulas, como diria Kleist: essa estratégia de tomar os corpos pela superfície é uma decisão radical que o realizador consegue manter ao longo das duas horas. Sendo um filme que apela ao corpo logo desde o título, o que está em causa não é a construção do corpo de uma personagem mas de um corpo colectivo". Que não é o corpo "freak" porque, havendo trabalho de campo, não há "nenhuma vontade de fazer etnografia ou de descrever comunidades existentes"; o que há, sublinha Bragança de Miranda, é a vontade de fazer emergir qualquer coisa a partir de três zombies e de "reflectir profundamente sobre as relações humanas" num contexto em que a brutalidade da paisagem e, simultaneamente, a sua indiferença total "fazem com que o trabalho que tem de ser feito se faça": "Se a paisagem fosse demasiado acolhedora ou hostil, as personagens teriam de se confrontar com o exterior. Assim só têm de se confrontar consigo próprias. É nisso que o filme é superior: introduz pequenas diferenças dentro dos lugares-comuns de uma certa sociologia da juventude de hoje, e ainda bem, porque já há muita gente a fazer essa sociologia".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;O tecno, os cães, os charros, o Alentejo a céu aberto (embora o céu não lhe interesse: interessa-lhe o pó, a terra, a lama), as "raves", o abandono, os "piercings", as "roulottes", a anarquia e a agricultura biológica estão lá para fazer a identificação de um território. Mas não há nisso sociologia (quando muito taxinomia, diz Paulo Cunha e Silva) nem celebração (de um momento, de uma indumentária, do tecno, dos anos 80). Isso sim, diz Hugo Vieira da Silva, seria ficar à superfície.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Inês Nadais (PÚBLICO)&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'

/&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(...)"This film is made of emptiness, as the land where it is passed, the characters are purposely empty to transmit that there is no time or space characterized…It's all done in an ambiguous space and time, because there isn't a linear story telling, there isn't even a plot, but just a complex puzzle of pieces of scenes which can be changed from the end to the beginning, to the middle…The film is made in a kind of a spiral form...(...) and I agree with them! The movie really creates a sensation of crudeness and emptiness in the viewer, which are transmitted especially by the characters, the scenarios, the music and the few dialogues (a great part of the film has no dialogs… many expressions and feelings are just transmitted by the body… corporal language…). But there are feelings, mixed with that emptiness, there are desires, there are hopes, even if they seem to be lost sometimes… About other details, the film causes a special impact with some musical scenes… Especially those when the strong beat of the "Raves" crush the stereo speakers! Its impact it's even bigger when it passes from a calm scene, with almost no sounds, to an intense and loud techno music scene, or vice-versa. It has a strong visual and audio impact! By the way, the entire soundtrack is excellent mixing some punk-rock sounds of the eighties (especially from German bands), with techno music or even the industrial sounds of Einsturzende Neubauten.It really was a different film. It has something new, a new language, or at least it tries to do so… but I guess it can reach its purposes, if not all of them, many are fulfilled.(...)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://imdb.com/title/tt0496269/"&gt;http://imdb.com/title/tt0496269/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/32882354-116912874392078821?l=body-rice.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://body-rice.blogspot.com/feeds/116912874392078821/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=32882354&amp;postID=116912874392078821' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32882354/posts/default/116912874392078821'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32882354/posts/default/116912874392078821'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://body-rice.blogspot.com/2007/01/object-trouv-4-texts-published-in.html' title='OBJECT TROUVÉ 4 texts published in internet'/><author><name>lucifer</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04948248009626903710</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32882354.post-116912834175281118</id><published>2007-01-18T05:51:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2007-01-18T05:52:21.753-08:00</updated><title type='text'>OBJECT TROUVÉ 3 texts published in internet</title><content type='html'>(...)"Body Rice" inaugura um capítulo novo no cinema português? Não sei, talvez, mas realmente, o que parece superficial neste filme não o é. Tudo está lá, em especial a complexidade das relações humanas. Para além disso, é caso para dizer que provavelmente alguns críticos portugueses não tiveram "olhos" nem "ouvidos" suficientes para este filme. Há planos e "raccords" do "outro mundo". O talento é imenso. São certíssimos os comentários de Paulo Cunha e Silva e Bragança de Miranda no "Y", assim como os comentários que li nos "Cahiers".

Cinema português, boy, I don't know...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. O que fascina em Body Rice é, evidentemente, a determinação. Sobretudo se confrontada com a perdição que retrata. A determinação de Hugo Vieira da Silva é total. Há uma força que impele a câmara e que nunca percebemos muito bem qual é. Tamanha força não pode ter muitas motivações e o leque em que nos movemos restringe-se: há, parece-me uma paixão, pelas personagens, sobretudo por Katrin. Mas essa paixão é igualmente por contar uma história, silente, calando e acompanhando. Deixando que a história se conte por si. E esse é o grande privilégio do cinema. Por contraposição a La Maman e la Putain, que aqui se usa como expoente do cinema falado, este Body Rice de Vieira da Silva é o cinema olhado, mas não mudo, bem longe disso. As palavras existem neste filme como despojos, vitualhas que alimentam os dias, os espaços vazios, que sustentam de forma ténue as existências que vamos acompanhando.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. Mas não há só paixão, há também um fascínio pelo desmoronar das vidas e pela sua (promessa/possibilidade de) reconstituição.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. A miúda que brinca com o Rottweiller entrou para o meu panteão de divindades pessoais.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. O simbiose entre o Alentejo de Body Rice e as suas raves é muito interessante. Sobretudo como paradigmas de alienação. Mais. Como alegorias e, ao mesmo tempo, exercícios de alienação. Aliás, este é um belíssimo filme sobre a perdição no sentido de alienação. Um dionisismo negro. As raves parecem aparecer, assim, como um único momento genuíno, em que as pessoas ganham sentido.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6.

Silva. Estreia nos cinemas portugueses a 11 de Janeiro de 2007.Banda sonora com temas e remixes de Chris Liebing, Joey Beltram aka JB3, Joy Division, entre outros... BODY RICE é a primeira longa metragem de Hugo Vieira da Silva. Esta obra, premiada no Festival de Locarno com a Menção Especial do Júri tem estreia marcada em Portugal para o dia 11 de Janeiro. Body Rice mostra-nos um trabalho que dilui fronteiras: a performance, a dança contemporânea, a poesia e a música associam-se para mostrar um filme que fala sobre a ausência. Este universo transdisciplinar constitui-se ao som de: Einstuerzende Neubauten; Joey Beltram; X Mal Deutschland; Joy Division; Kosmonautentraum; The Hilliard Ensemble. Hugo Vieira da Silva procura uma atmosfera que mostre a hibridização do corpo explorando-o fora da psicologia através da sua performatividade. Enquadrado por uma paisagem árida e despojada esse corpo alimenta-se da fragmentação, de uma violência surda de memórias. O registo procura a superfície, a periferia, transformar o corpo num mapa emocional do interior.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.technoinside.org/documento-1-1-lang_pt-1.html"&gt;http://www.technoinside.org/documento-1-1-lang_pt-1.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/32882354-116760009411852572?l=body-rice.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://body-rice.blogspot.com/feeds/116760009411852572/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=32882354&amp;postID=116760009411852572' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32882354/posts/default/116760009411852572'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32882354/posts/default/116760009411852572'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://body-rice.blogspot.com/2006/12/techno-inside.html' title='TECHNO INSIDE'/><author><name>lucifer</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04948248009626903710</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32882354.post-116666160826991133</id><published>2006-12-20T16:38:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-12-20T16:40:08.270-08:00</updated><title type='text'>BODY RICE new selection</title><content type='html'>BODY RICE was selected for the BANGKOK INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL 2007&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/32882354-116666160826991133?l=body-rice.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://body-rice.blogspot.com/feeds/116666160826991133/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=32882354&amp;postID=116666160826991133' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32882354/posts/default/116666160826991133'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32882354/posts/default/116666160826991133'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://body-rice.blogspot.com/2006/12/body-rice-new-selection.html' title='BODY RICE new selection'/><author><name>lucifer</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04948248009626903710</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32882354.post-116666106526586218</id><published>2006-12-20T16:29:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-12-20T16:31:05.276-08:00</updated><title type='text'>BODY RICE in Rotterdam</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/5644/3602/1600/100827/iffr_affiche_2007_A4_rgb-2_magenta_BIJGESNEDEN_235.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block;

Para ser mais rigoroso e mais cinematográfico a descoberta de um ponto de vista. Frio, desapaixonado,atento. O olhar de um cientista social ou melhor o de um entomologista. Esses adolescentes alemães problemáticos, integrados num suposto projecto de reinserção social no Alentejo, metem literalmente medo. Opacos, à deriva, manifestam curtos momentos de energia quando a musica pop irrompe para logocaírem numa apatia profunda reagindo apenas a vagos tropismos sem destinatário visível. São sonâmbulos perdidos num Alentejo de cascalho,muito longe da imagem folclórica das longas planícies de trigo verde que se tornou um cliché nacional. Nenhum desejo, nenhuma revolta os anima.

Hugo Vieira da Silva erzählt aus der Prespektive eines der betrofenen Mädchen und stülpt deren nihilistische Weltsich in langen, quälenden, vorwiegend, graublau getönten Einstellungen inszenatorisch nach auBen- unvergesslich ein endlos wirkender Tanz vor einer Batterie von übermannsgroBen Lautsprechern oder das Spiel des Mädchens mit einer kopflosen Roboterfigur am Strand: Ausdruck von Sensucht nach Nähe und Verzweiflung zugleich.

Non è la noia del vivere che la sgomenta, come qualcuno ha detto, è qualcosa di molto più radicale: è l’ottusità, l’atarassia, l’ottundimento che la rende incapace di qualsivoglia relazione.E il regista giustamente decide di seguire il suo personaggio senza imbellettargli il contorno. Quindi ha costruito il suo film con riprese in macchina fissa e lunghi estenuanti carrelli a seguire il vagare randagio senza speranza della ragazza.Chiaro che non vengono piazzati appigli all’identificazione, ma magari in certi frangenti si può sperare che qualcosa cambi nella nostra an-eroina: un uomo viene preso da un attacco di epilessia e avrebbe bisogno di qualcuno che lo tenga stretto, Karin con moltà difficoltà prova a farlo, ma presto è costretta a rinunciare, del tutto schifata dal contatto umano. Su di un piano opposto, è persino impossibile per lei cercare di perdersi ulteriormente, cercare l’abiezione o l’umiliazione. Prova a offrire il suo corpo per qualcosa di insignificante o meglio proprio senza motivo e non ci riesce. Non sa, non conosce più le regole del comportamento umano, neanche della peggior specie. E Body Rice è un film su un corpo inadatto, chiuso in se stesso. Addirittura, la possibilità di una breve riconciliazione si propone solo con un pupazzo animato, al quale la ragazza chiede dei gesti di azione-reazione, ma il pupazzo non capisce e continua nel movimento a carica, che ritorna sempre uguale.Karin trova una compagna in Julia, in tutto simile a lei e, infatti, quando dice di essere incinta, lo fa ipotizzando una prospettiva di cambiamento al quale da subito è vano credere.È l’uomo alla fine della sua storia, che non sa più procreare, che arriva all’annichilimento totale.In questo contesto Vieira da Silva riesce anche a inserire frammenti dalla liberazione della Germania, la caduta del Muro, quasi volendo allargare il campo del suo discorso anche a una congiuntura storica, per cui la generazione perduta dei giovani tedeschi degli anni Ottanta è come se fosse stata tutta esiliata per rimettere le cose a posto in funzione della nuova Germania unita. E si potrebbe anche ravvisare nell’afasia di Karin una incapacità di riconoscersi, l’incapacità di costruire una identità al nuovo tedesco che nasce dalle macerie del Muro.Ma tutte queste sono supposizioni che restano comunque sullo sfondo di un discorso, quale quello di Hugo Vieira da Silva, che riserva il suo interesse non nella storicizzazione, quanto nella universalità, per la de-cognizione del dolore di un corpo sfatto, e da qui si rivela anche un importante saggio di come il cinema possa liberarsi a volte dai lacci narrativi per dare rilievo al movimento (sia pur senza direzione precisa) che è insito alla sua ontologia.Certo, non basta piazzare la macchina da presa e lasciarla andare, ci vuole anche sapienza in quello che si fa, e Vieira da Silva dimostra di saperci fare. Pensiamo all’ultima scena, in cui cinque-sei personaggi sono racchiusi nello strettissimo spazio di un camper, stravaccati a bere birra e a fumare. Le sigarette passano lentamente di bocca in bocca, le bottiglie di birra altrettanto, mentre il corpo dell’uno che ostacola il corpo dell’altra viene spostato come un peso morto. È una scena meccanica e poetica insieme, in cui il movimento racchiuso in così pochi metri e con tale apparente naturalezza, si mostra come un alto momento di cinema, di in-azione cinematografica.Un’ultima menzione per la traccia finale della colonna sonora, Incubus Succubus, una strabiliante hit degli anni Ottanta, che rende in pieno l’atmosfera del film.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;cinemavvenire.it&lt;br /&gt;1 sept. 2006&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/32882354-115772377102933055?l=body-rice.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://body-rice.blogspot.com/feeds/115772377102933055/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=32882354&amp;postID=115772377102933055' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32882354/posts/default/115772377102933055'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32882354/posts/default/115772377102933055'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://body-rice.blogspot.com/2006/09/alessandro-aniballi-cinemavvenire.html' title='Alessandro Aniballi (cinemavvenire)'/><author><name>lucifer</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04948248009626903710</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32882354.post-115592459787365047</id><published>2006-08-18T11:05:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2006-08-18T11:09:57.883-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Director and producer</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5644/3602/1600/212599923_83e6579c1f.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block;

Body Rice (a world premiere in competition) is set inside one of these programmes, but don´t expect a sociological drama-documentary. As the director explains in an interview with Pardo News, he didn´t make the film with a polemical point of view.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hugo Vieira da Silva´s first fiction feature film is jarring and enigmatic. There are constant slow, mesmeric pans. Dialogue is kept at a minimum. There are sudden jumps between scenes.&lt;br /&gt;The protagonist is Katrin, a german delinquent adrift in the parched Portuguese countryside. She is listless in the extreme. She´ll sit in the sand smoking or lie in her bed, staring at the ceiling. As if to reflect her apathy, the film has a washed out, desnaturated look. Katrin we learn is from -the project-. It is never made clear why she is here. Nor does she show any sign of emotion. She is trapped in her own private world. When one German staying at the center is found dead, she barely seems to notice. The others at the center are almost equally apathetic, sitting around or dancing to music. Da Silva´s inventive and haunting soundtrack includes music from Joy Division, Einstuerzende Neubauten, X Mal Deutschland and Joey Beltram.&lt;br /&gt;Ask the director what the title stands for and he refuses to provide a gilb explanation.- I think the film is like a puzzle-, he says.- There are pieces. You can mount these pieces in several ways. They all go together somehow. The title is one more piece of this puzzle.-&lt;br /&gt;Da Silva acknowledges that BODY RICE is very different from some of the more conventional narrative dramas included in competition in Locarno. It his heavily influenced by his interest in performance, contemporary dance and poetry.&lt;br /&gt;-My characters are shadows- the director says. I feel very close to them, but Iam very far from this journalistic documentary approach. Some people may see this as a depressing world but I don´t think so. There is always the possibility fo the carachters to express themselves.-&lt;br /&gt;Da Silva strikes a pessimistic note about current state of european cinema. He suggests that it remains - extremely difficult to find financing for non-conventional projects like his own. The movies which are funded are often the most formulaic. -this element of honesty that you should have with with your work I think is lacking in many contemporary films. European film is in a creative crisis from my point of view.&lt;br /&gt;Paulo Branco, one of best-known producers (and former recipent of Locarno´s Raimondo Rezzonico Prize) was ready to take a chance on BODY RICE.- He (Branco) always has an eye for what is going on and it is good that he is able to give someone the opportunity to come.-&lt;br /&gt;Audiences in Locarno may be wrong-footed by the experimental storytelling in BODY RICE. The director urges them to whatch his film without prejudice.&lt;br /&gt;-The only thing interesting is provoking divison-, Da Silva suggests.-It´s the only point when something can happen. You can leave the cinema or love it, but what would be not interesting in doing is giving audiences what they expect. That would mean I was telling the old story that everyone hears all the time. I want to make problems, raise questions and not to give solutions.
