1999 Pan African Film Festival
The world premiere of ``Personals'' and a screening of the acclaimed ``Tattered Identity'' from Belgium and the Congo will kick off the seventh Pan African Film and Art Festival. ``Personals,'' a romantic comedy, centers on a Manhattan journalist who sets out to chronicle the singles scene by dating 30 women in the course of a month. ``Tattered Identity'' is the wry tale of a former African monarch who goes to visit his daughter in Belgium and encounters hostility and ignorance.
Among the other premieres in this year's program are the thriller ``Asunder,'' directed by Tim Reid and starring Blair Underwood, Michael Beach and Debbie Morgan; the urban classroom drama ``Detention''; the comedy ``Melting Pot,'' with CCH Pounder, Paul Rodriguez and Cliff Robertson, in which race figures heavily during a civic election; actor Richard L. Brooks' directing debut ``Johnny B. Good,'' a yarn of a hustler who stumbles onto a political boondoggle; and the docudrama ``Endurance,'' on the extraordinary life of Ethiopian Olympic runner Haile Gebrselassie.
This year's expanded program draws heavily on recent and vintage African and European cinema including the 1998 Cannes hit ``Life on Earth,'' filmmaker Abderrahmane Sissako's look at life in a small village on the eve of the year 2000, and the 1975 Palme d'Or winner ``Chronicle of the Burning Years'' from Algeria.
ALGERIA
"La Colline Oubliée" by Abderrahmane Bouguermouh - An exciting feature from Algeria, notable as the first film ever produced
in the Berber language! Rich in cultural anthropology of the Kabile Mountain peoples, it includes memorable scenes of ritual,
dance, and everyday life as well as being a history of the Berber people and an exploration of gender relations in their changing
world.
MADAGASCAR
"Quand les Étoiles Rencontrent La Mer" - by Raymond Rajaonarivelo -The first feature film from Madagascar (in the Malagash
language subtitled in French). A beautifully rich entrance into a culture virtually unknown in the West where myth and
materialism are still one.
ZAIRE
"Taxcarte" - by Joseph Kumbela - A short film (un court metrage) by a Zairian filmmaker; an uproariously funny look at
interracial gender relations and communications technology on a Paris street corner.
ETHIOPA
"Abyssine Swing" - by Anais Prosaic - a music video tour de force of traditional and pop music in contemporary Ethiopia
(including Tigré and Etrea). "Melodies de femmes" - Florentine Yameogo (Burkino Faso) and "Deux villes au rythme de la
culture" - (Benin Television) - two video documents that explore everyday ritual choral music in the African context of work,
death, life and love.
EGYPT
A complete retrospective of the films of the great Egyptian filmmaker Youssef Chahine
TUNISIA
"Miel et Cendres" - by Nadia Fares of Tunisia and "Mon Coeur est Temoin" - by Quebecer Louise Carre, one a feature
and one a documentary and both tracing a variety of stories about women's independence as well as violence against women.
Two very powerful and very beautifully produced films.
SENEGAL
(West Africa) "Tableau Ferraille" - by Moussa Sene Absa (Senegal)- treats polygamy and economic power in urban West Africa
with stellar acting and powerful world beat sound track! ; "Mossane" - Safi Faye - (first feature film from a West African,
Senegalese, woman director!)"Idylle" - by Dominique Fares (Senegal) and "Mousso" - by Cheikh Ndiaye (Senegal)
GUADELOUPE
Guadeloupean documentarian Sarah Moldoror's "Léon G. Damas", a gorgeous documentary on the first poet of
Négritude that included stunning editing of Damas's native Guyane as well as interviews with Aimé Césaire and Léopold
Senghor. César Paes's "Le Bouillon d'Awara " explored creole identity in the Caribbean basin.
HAITI
"Sweet Mickey for President"
by Mariette Monpierre and Jean-Pierre Brax looked at a Haitian musician in New York and the chemistry of machismo.
SOUTH AFRICA
"Impressions de l'Afrique ...du Sud" by Karim Dridi looked at changing identity South Africa.
ALGERIA
"D'un Désert, L'Autre" by Sarah Taouss Matton is a documentary about a feature film about Arab women and sex in an
Algerian village where the filmmakers are under threat of assassination from Islamic fundamentalists. A tense dramatic, multi -
layered documentary interweaving narrative and documentary forms. There are also many unique videos and films which reveal
much about the art of film making as well as life in traditional societies.
