takes someone on a ride. it is designed to be seen large and loud. the south by southwest film hé'fié é s‘géiiél feel-ii nsng'e: “in the}; politically charged times. it a film that totally normalise; american muslim and also the average american mexican immigrant. this is about religious freedom. and oscar winer melissa leo playing an activist atheist once dubbed "the most hated woman in samerica"——.= i think the question of religious freedom has come up again in ourworld. plus an experimental film that uses the rat as the storytelling device. a rat nibbled the egg and let the light in. all that and more in this special south by southwest film festival edition of talking movies. austin has been enveloped by south by southwest — a sprawling interactive media, music and film festival that ti‘iii eééfl eft? fiifiézfiég fit?! éfiffififi.

showcased some 130 features. the south by southwest film festival opened amid great excitement as stars arrived for tfis ares-ere sf serve: is sefie fl it is the ninth feature film from revered american director terence malik. it is very much a local tale involving interconnected lovers set against the backdrop of the music scene in austin. the key relationship is between struggling song writers, faye and bv, played by rooney mara and ryan gosling. but faye is also involved with cook, portrayed by michael fassbender. i play somebody who is sort of trying to find some sort of transcendence, in a way, and he does that through sexual encounters, though drugtaking, any heightened experience. he is somebody who is very who is really i think a very powerful, very wealthy

and self—destructive as well. don't you want to make some money? song to song has many of the hallmarks of a terence malik film. visually arresting, lots of voice—over monologues from the actors, little a story that is more impressionistic than literal. to some it had an intoxicating effects. malik‘s actors are certainly intoxicated by him. he is one of the most unique, original humans i have ever met or spent time with. he is so brilliant and so... just his own person. no one is making movies in this way, really. he makes beautiful films. what is interesting about terry is he makes them very differently from what the usual formula is.

most films out there have the same formula and terence malik has a different formula and i think that's the interesting part about him. whatever i wanted, he'd make it happen. terence malik does not do interviews. he has become a mythicalfigure. partly because he withdrew from filmmaking for two decades after his first two successful features in the 19705. since his award—winning 2011 picture, the tree of life, his most recent films have not brought him much praise. would song to song restore his reputation as a visionary american director? but critics for the most part panned song to song, one calling it sprawling yet shallow. what is it you do? i'm a driver. more enthusiasm was expressed for the festival's hollywood studio movies. baby driver was well liked. a car—chase film with wall—to—wall music, with ansel elgort as a getaway driver. at the premier, he was in

full promotional mode. it is really fun for everyone. very fun movie theatre movie, a date movie, a movie you can go with your friends. it could be anything. baby driver has been put together by british direct edgar wright. ansel‘s character is somebody that plays music 24/7 to motive him and focus him at what he does. it is something he cannot live without and that is the movie you see, this heist film set to music. also earning some decent reviews was atomic blonde, the gaptdeneyew a lethal mi6james bond—style spy on assignment in 1989 berlin. a 2003 film, the room, dubbed the citizen kane of bad movies, provided inspiration for the disaster artist, a satire on the making of that film, which brought enormous credit to its star, producer and directorjames franco.

the narrative films at south by southwest are a bit of a mishmash but several had immigrant themes. where are you? something massive come up. filmmaker anthony 0nah brought dara ju to the festival — a portrait of a young nigerian american who works on wall street, striving for success, weighed down by obligations to his immigrantfamily. in telling the story of this particular guy who i found fascinating in the course of developing dara ju — he is at once an american with dreams of upward mobility, he's at once an african, and he's at once a black man, and in telling his story and looking at hese differents facets of his character you get a sense of the immigrant experience through this very particular lens, that of the nigerian american experience, and in a weay you get a sense of what the country is like now. and finally, there's signature move, the story of a muslim lesbian immigration lawyer in chicago, whose love for a mexican american woman and her interest in wrestling puts her in conflict with her very traditional pakistani mother.

the film star and co—writer acknowledges that'rn'the tightj {if eele—iz'i'ef' 55:25:55; is; sees—if; geezer being perceived in political terms. before donald trump made it popular to talk about muslims and mexicans in the same sentence. i didn't set out to make a political movie, i set out to tell a story that reflected the people i know, the truth that i know, the love that i see. now let's look at some south by southwest films in a bit more detail. this year there were two documentaries which explored incidents of unarmed black men being shot by the police. cases such as these have become an almost routine aspect of life one of the films focuses on the shooting of a man called dontre hamilton. 11—46 — shots fired.

shots fired, an officer involved. in milwaukee, wisconsin, april 2014, 31—year—old dontre hamilton was napping in a public park. citizens called police repeatedly to complain that hamilton looked suspicious. an altercation between a police officer and the unarmed hamilton ensued and the officer fired 1a bullets, shooting him to death. director eric young found elements of this story troubling so he made contact with the hamilton family. i work as a documentarian and video journalist in milwaukee. i travel all around. i had done some stories with social activism within milwaukee so i knew a lot of the main players in social movements and so i went to one of the first main rallies that the hamilton families had. a lot of the people that showed up, they knew me and they could vouch for me. having said that, i approached the family right off the bat and kind of tried to explain what i was doing.

i was a little bit nervous. i think they just thought i was another news crew but i kept coming to all the rallies and talking to them more and they got a better sense of what i was trying to do. did you have any reservations that you're a white person telling a story rooted in black experiences? that's something that was always concerning to me. i was working on this project for a long time, like, "am i the right person to tell this story? am i missing something? where are my blind spots? but it is definitely something that crossed my mind and it was a concern for sure. chant: hands up. young gives us a documentary that shows more than just a family's grief over the shooting of a loved one.

in the film, frustration builds as the city of milwaukee takes months at a time to officially respond to this tragedy. during hew—nate dontre's brother and mother — became more politically active. gar film is ufiia‘ue in, that wewere= really on the ground right after this happened following the family as they're going through the process of trying to reset the narrative in the media about their loved one and about fighting forjustice the social movement in milwaukee. organize a group called coalition forjustice. they got community members to come out once a week and they would talk about what the plan is for this week. and they used very structured actions. in the film, we see the formation of the coalition forjustice as they protest in the streets, rally against police and even quarrelled with others over political tactics. the director says his agenda

about portraying a family driven to action by the loss of a loved one. my main thing was really ijust wanted to show from a family's perspective because i think it is easy for people to sit back and judge this family from the comments and facebook. if you got to know this family anybody can relate to this family. nate and maria are really good people and a lot of fun and even despite the tragedy they maintained a sense of humour and were able to have a good time. what would you do if that happened? given that there are numerous instances of police shootings of unarmed black americans like dontre hamilton, television airways are often thick with news reports of these tragedies and some believe the public has become numbed. can a documentary make any difference? nate hamilton believes in the film's ability to impact individuals more than anything else. everything in this film will show our self expression of the love we have for our family

and the love that has grown for the community. seeing this film you can say ! rags ease mussels ~ i tan sea m'g'satf ifih‘fmhn . is amig. the same way this family was with courage, dignity and self—respect. the story raises question about how the milwaukee police department handle this racially charged case. the film has topicality because at the end of last month, president trump's new attorney generaljeff sessions indicated the federal government will pull back on investigating police eric young says he finds jeff sessions‘ rhetoric terrifying. he has only been in the white house for a few weeks but a'ready president trump with his policies on everything from immigration

to the environment is changing the way the rest of the world sees america. perceptions of america and how they match with reality are the film of a documentary called maineland. director miao wangcame to south by southwest with the film mainland. the documentary follows two chinese teenagers, stella and harry, who travel to the us to study at a private boarding school in the state of maine. they are part of a bigger phenomenon of economically privileged students there is an enormous wave of chinese students coming to the us and to other parts of the world who seek higher education so they can experience american culture and learn the language. the goal for most of these students is to go to college in the us and afterwords it is more of an open question mark — do they go back or stay?

culture. it is the subject matter familiar to the director because she grew up in china and moved to the us when she was 13. in herfilm, stella porders how the concept of happiness varies between the two countries. she talks about how the chinese happiness is different from the american happiness. in america a lot of times people go to a sports game and feel really happy but in china most people just do not... there has to be some kind of basic, fundamental security... allow themselves to be truly happy and i think in some ways she appreciates elements of the american... that sort of carefreeness. maineland shows that for these chinese students,

they had this idealistic american dream which is you can probably become wealthy, have a nice life here. but in a lot of ways, they are worse than china. maintandtookethreesy‘earsflrmake the direetartetsithedfiseals speak for themselves. at south by southwest, it won an award for excellence in 0bservational humour. in 0bservational cinema. i watched a famous movie called high school musical and decided 0ne austin resident who loomed large

was madalyn murray 0'hare, an activist atheist. the film shows her as a larger—than—life figure. her actor applauds her achievements. in the early 1960s, single—handedly, with the help of her young son, she got christian prayer out of public schools in the united states of america by taking it to the supreme court where it was found to be indeed an infringement on the constitution. you have just ruined a television show. she became a media star and was a difficult woman according

to many accounts. he was too religious and she needed something to strike out against. as she got older and became more and more committed to the notion and got more and more informed about all of it, she also went on later in her life to form the american atheist association. the director said he was—interested} in the dynamics of her family life. i wanted to tell a story about a woman who had a very complex relationship with her family. a person who really believed in something and was seduced by the limelight and greed and ended up pushing away many of those people that loved her the most. hello. a former employee was her downfall. knowledgeable that the american atheist empire had sizeable funds, he saw an opportunity.

she was kidnapped along with her son and granddaughter and they were all murdered by him in 1985. and they were all murdered by him in 1995. he was a career criminal. he was fascinating and deeply charming. and i think very much they had this rather extraordinary and bizarre relationship. 0'hare and her relatives were mutilated and buried and it was indeed a gruesome end. there were documentaries made about her, but this new film is a fictionalised account. liberties were taken, but the director says a lot was true. a lot comes directly from interviews. we are lucky to have quite a few books that she wrote and plenty of articles and tv appearances to pull from. religious conservatives who believe there is a place for prayer in public schools probably'willrnot rush to see this movie, still have great topical relevance.

the question of religious freedom has come up again in our world, i don't think it actually died away. i think it gives us pause to many of the things she says and what she says in the film. she is not asking people to stop their religion, she is not asking people to believe what she believes, she does not want to be rolled over into someone else's belief and be made to do things according to someone else's belief. that is it. and after all, that is truly the american way. nobody can hurt me. as a festival, south by southwest is jampacked with corporate branding. but, some subversive works to emerge from other commercial infrastructure. for example, this year was rat film, a truly idiosyncratic documentary which defies easy categorisation. tristan daley reports. in his first documentary feature,

rat film, theo anthony uses the rat to explore different topics, like housing discrimination, and current methods of pest control. it takes place in baltimore and uses the rat as a tool. i don't have strong feelings for the rat, but i do believe in the rat as a vessel to explain the ideas and histories of people. that is what i am interested in, not actually the rat. anything that cuts across boundaries and moves people. i could have made a film about garbage routes. anything that transverses distance and people and geography has fheeeteattatie create really the film shows how discrimination

contributed to the rise of rat populations in poor neiahaaurhaaasiniaatt'rmare: videogame perspectives showed the perspective of the rats. the rat is a theme throughout. but critics could say it lacks coherence. there are so many ideas. i don't want to be confined to a mythical linear narrative that will give catharsis and resolution at the end. anything that i try to push back on, that expectation of solution and a payoff and coming out of the film learning what we have to do next. i think the most effective a film can be is that you come out feeling radically different and not knowing what to do. and i think that is the most important step. 0pen interpretation seems to be theo anthony's biggest priority. are being used to show

something profound. but he says there is no singular interpretation. it is whatever you bring to it. if you want to see people running around baltimore killing or helping rats, it has that. if you want to learn about how a city is mapped and modelled and built, you can do that as well. the film premiered to positive reviews. it seems fitting that this should screen at south by southwest, which is known ferrite ~ mixed—media brand. and any hopes this home—grown project will for a wrench ii’ifii tee exfiéiféfii’é~~ ,,, .,, " .. of the audience about what a documentary film should be. well, that brings this specialsoutjl
