Synopsis
“Reconstruct the melody to reconstruct a chronicle of that time”. The film is in search of the melody a friend shared with the filmmakers 15 years ago when they were travelling together between North Africa and Sicily. As a seasonal worker from Tunisia, who lived on the island of Lampedusa, Abdelhamid had become the witness to the shift from the past border regime to a new one, to the borderisation process taking place in southern Europe. What has happened between the moment when this melody was recorded on now obsolete videotape and the moment when it is taken up again today, continued in the form of new musical performances?
Sinopsis
“Rekonstruirati melodiju znači rekonstruirati hronike tog vremena”. Film je u potrazi za melodijom koju je prijatelj podijelio sa autorima prije 15 godina, dok su skupa putovali između sjeverne Afrike i Sicilije. Kao sezonski radnik iz Tunisa, koji je živio na Lampeduzi, Abdelhamid je postao svjedokom transformacije jednog graničnog režima u novi, koji proces ograničavanja smješta u južnu Evropu. Šta se desilo od trenutka kada je melodija snimljena na staroj videotraci, do današnjeg trena kada ona ponovo oživljava u vidu novih muzičkih performansa?
Directors Biography
Maria Iorio/Raphaël Cuomo are an artist duo based in Geneva and Berlin. Favoring a collaborative praxis and long-term development, the duo’s artistic projects retrace different past and present mobility regimes and manifest the intertwined histories of these movements of life and migrant cultures. Their recent films focus on the conditions under which narratives can emerge and resistant knowledge be transmitted and translated.
Biografija reditelja
Maria Iorio/Raphaël Cuomo predstavljaju umjetnički duo sa adresama u Ženevi i Berlinu. Kroz saradničke prakse i dugoročan razvoj, umjetnički projekti dua nanovo iscrtavaju različite prošlosti i prijašnje režime mobilnosti, te manifestuju prepletene historije ovih pokreta života i migrantskih kultura. Njihovi posljednji filmovi usredotočeni su na uslove u kojima narativi mogu iskrsnuti, a otporno znanje može biti preneseno i prevedeno.
