#SuhaibGasmelbari’s Talking About Trees won ‘The International Competition Grand Jury prize’ this year at #JioMAMIwithStar2019. He couldn’t join us, but he sends his best wishes from Sudan. #TalkingAboutTrees
“What kind of times are these, when to talk about a Tree is almost a crime, because it implies to silence about so many horrors.” (Brecht) #TalkingAboutTrees #nihrff
What an amazing ending to an intense day!! It was an honour to host the @idfafestival #talk for the beautiful movie #talkingabouttrees. The audience couldn't stop applauding and laughing - even though the story isn't lighthearted. It was my Idfa-pick without even seeing it, and you can read about it on @oneworldnl right now. A movie by @suhaibgasmelbari about four amazing Sudanese directors who's careers were interrupted by the regime and their determined, dignified and humorous quest for the revival of Sudanese cinema-culture. Go see it if you can. ?????. Idfa, thank you for the great partnership!
The @nihrff was created in 1999, shortly before Nuremberg received the UNESCO Award for Human Rights Education. Every two years, it presents a unique selection of about 60 documentaries, fiction and experimental films to an audience of 10.000 visitors, as well as talks and conferences with filmmakers from around the world. ?? . We had the pleasure to talk to the director, Andrea Kuhn, who shared with us some highlights of this year’s edition (October 2-9, 2019) and her passion for bringing together the beauty of cinema and human rights issues. What she and her team are most proud of is to have created an open atmosphere for audiences, filmmakers and juries to connect. ‘Filmmakers have felt at home’, she told us. ‘We want a festival where people enjoy being’, and where 'everybody can own the festival'. ☀️ . While this edition is over, the team continues its work all year long through cooperation, discussions and support of young film festivals, filmmakers and NGO as part of the Human Rights Film Network. And great news! You have the opportunity to see the festival’s opening movie ‘Talking about Trees’ again next week. ? . ‘Talking about Trees’ is a poetic documentary about four passionate filmmakers trying to bring cinema back to Sudan, in spite of censorship and the country’s ongoing political crises. A critically acclaimed movie for people interested in Sudan and human rights, or just for relentless cinema lovers. It will be screened on Wednesday December 18th at 7 pm at the @filmhausnuernberg. ???? . And you, have you seen any movies there this year? .

. . NOW PLAYING . . Arabic movies at the 15th Zurich Film Festival . . “Talking About Trees” by Suhaib Gasmelbari (Sudan, 2019) . . „We want to reopen the Revolution.“ Revolution is the name of an idle open-air movie theatre in Sudan. Starting in 1989, the repressive regime under Umar al-Bashir has forced film culture off the scene, sending up-and-coming filmmakers into torture and exile. Nevertheless, the four old friends Ibrahim, Suliman, Eltayeb and Manar have not lost any of their fiery enthusiasm to this day, and are more than happy to take on the hopeless challenge of breathing new life into the stifled movie theatre. . . Filmmaker Suhaib Gasmelbari accompanies the childlike enthusiasm of the four patrons of Sudanese film, while simultaneously drawing up a critical inventory of a country whose Islamic fundamentalist policy under the recently ransomed rulers creates a hostile climate for free thinking and cultural creation.

I was lucky enough to be part of the success of the Sudanese Cinema revolution this year. I introduced the two must watch gems @ajyalfilm which were supported by @dohafilm : first Suhib Gismalbari’s documentary #TalkingAboutTrees which reflects the struggles of the last generation of filmmakers to simply have a screening in one of deserted cinemas which was shut down as part of the “Islamist” government’s war on arts and culture. The second is @amjad.abu.ala @youwilldieat20 feature about life and death and of course the liberating power of #cinema. #Sudan cinema has re-started at the top even with all the obstacles that the previous governments had in place against #Art, #culture and #freedomofexpression . We shouldn’t allow ourselves to go anywhere but up after this revolution. A lot of People died over the years for Sudan to Live. So let’s do our best for Sudan and the rest of the world.
It‘s all over now, baby blue! Auf jeden Fall für mich. Letzte Empfehlungen vom gestrigen Tag: SEACHING EVA von @pia_hellenthal und TALKING ABOUT TREES von Suhaib Gasmelbari @berlinale.panorama @searchingeva #talkingabouttrees

?Talking About Trees Currently screening at Doc Edge 2019! The group of retired directors, the Sudanese Film Club, hoping to revive their country's love of film. . . "The death of cinema was not natural at all. It died suddenly." . . We have one more screening left on Sat 8 June at 4.00pm!

#SuhaibGasmelbari puts the history of Sudanese cinema at the centre of #TalkingAboutTrees and at the same time sheds light on the current situation in a country shaken by ongoing crises. Suliman and three other members of the ‘Sudanese Film Club’ have decided to revive an old cinema. Tirelessly, they try to get the cinema’s owners on their side and make the place operational again, but repeatedly find themselves up against considerable resistance. ‘We are smarter than them, but not as strong,’ is how they unanimously summarise their situation. For those who prefer to watch movies in the comfort of their own streaming services, the eye-opening documentary #TalkingAboutTrees may make them reconsider the value, both cultural and political, of being able to see something on the big screen. It shows on Sunday 9th, 4:30PM-7:00PM at Prestige Cinema. Tickets are available for KES. 500 only. Ticket link on Bio #NBOFilmFest #Talkingabouttrees
