Pitcairn - L'isola degli ammutinati del Bounty(it)

Trouble in Paradise: The Pitcairn Story(en)

Pitcairn - a little slice of paradise. The tiny island settled by Fletcher Christian and the other mutineers from HMS Bounty. But in 2004 the British Pacific colony of Pitcairn - population 47 - won a notoriety that eclipsed its romantic past. A five year police investigation revealed a long history of shocking child sex abuse. The island was at the centre of world press attention - except that it's almost impossible to get there (the rocky island has no run-way, no roads no cars, no TV). The trial of the accused men - held in the village hall - divided opinion. How can the standards of normal life be applied to such a bizarre, remote community? But then again why should the daughters of the islanders not be protected? This remarkable film is a one-off. No other TV crew or journalists were allowed on the island. The twist is extraordinary. The men are jailed in a prison they must themselves build.

Ceija Stojka(de)

"Ceija Stojka" is a portrait of 64-year-old Austrian Rom Ceija Stojka, who, after a nomadic childhood, settled in Vienna many years ago. In the recent past, Ceija Stojka’s fame as an author, painter and singer has spread outside Austria. She represents the opening of Rom and Sinti society to the world of the "gadje." This process and all the difficulties it involves is unique in the history of the Rom in Central Europe. The central theme of this documentary is the fusion of two extremely different worlds in this fascinating woman. Beginning with Ceija Stojka’s present life, her biography is reconstructed in this film portrait. At the same time, a critical chronology of images portrays the common associations with the "gypsy," examples of which pervade Ceija Stojka’s life. A comprehensive consideration of the gypsy’s image, from romanticized projections to images of exclusion, discrimination and destruction, and finally the present ambivalent relationship between Rom and non-Rom.

Sacred Vessels: Navigating Tradition and Identity in Micronesia(en)

A 1997 documentary by Micronesian scholar, Vicente M. Diaz, that follows a new generation of traditional outrigger canoe builders and navigators from Polowat, Central Carolines, Federated States of Micronesia, and Guam in their respective efforts to continue and resuscitate an ancient tradition of outrigger canoe carving and sailing in the late twentieth century. Like the motif of water that flows through the documentary and blurs lines between surface and depth, and between water, land and air, an indefatigable tradition and aesthetic of seafaring is shown to also challenge pat and problematic distinctions between past and present, tradition and modernity, indigenous and Christian religiosity and spirituality, that prevail in conventional understandings of Micronesian culture and history.
