| Iranian Cinema and Shirin Neshat
- Cinema Dar Iran | Shirin Neshat
(DVD)
- Two documentary films on one DVD (in English)
- Synopsis:
- 1st film: Cinema on Fie
- A documentary film about the Iranian cinema by non-Persian speaking film
critiques. This documentary film explains the reasons for the
success of Iranian films outside of Iran.
-
-
- 2nd film: Shirn Neshat
- There is a palpable energy in Shirin Neshat's films, an almost tangible
seduction obviating the violence it borders, deeply rooted in the historical
culture she would ultimately have to call "home."
- As an artist living in New York and from there addressing a global
audience, Shirin Neshat quietly corrodes the most violent metaphysical
imperative assumptions about the nature and function of an "Islamic"
femininity.
- Enduring assumptions of what constitutes an "Islamic woman" are at once
domestic to that culture and colonially crafted on it. With a singular
strike of creative genius, Shirin Neshat manages to target both of these
divergent yet colliding agents.
- The history of Shirin Neshat's bodily portrayals of this "Islamic woman"
is the unwritten chronicle of a mute and concealed femininity. Her
photographs and films show and tell what has been forbidden to show and
tell.
- That she manages to do this without violating the bodily codes of an
"Islamic woman" marks the site of her creative imagination.
