3 3 Dear guests and organisers of Pärnu Film Festival, The festival is an event which joins visually different cultural traditions of Estonia, Europe and the entire world. The films screened in the program of festival help to draw conclusions and to understand clearly what is happening in the world. I wish You to take more time to watch and see as many films as possible. Thank you for keeping the tradition of Pärnu Film Festival alive. Raivo Palmaru Minister of Culture Dear film makers, Pärnu is happy and we are lucky that the Pärnu Documentary and Anthropology Film Festival initiated by Mark Soosaar is taking place again, now for the nineteenth time already. In the buzy world with commercial orientation, every masterpiece that helps us to go back in search of our roots for a moment and shows man truthfully in his natural activities, is a refreshing oasis. I wish memorable film days to all the participants and guests and I hope that the presented films give a lot of new ideas to everyone. Good luck, dear film fans! Ahti Kõo Major of Pärnu Head Pärnu Filmifestivali festivali külastajad ja korraldajad! Pärnu filmifestival on sündmus, mis visuaalselt ühendab erinevalt tajutavaid Eesti, Euroopa ja kogu maailma kultuuritraditsioone. Festivalil linastuvad filmid aitavad teha järeldusi ning mõista selgemalt maailmas toimuvat. Soovin teile rohkem aega, et vaadata ja näha võimalikult palju festivalifilme. Tänan Teid Pärnu filmifestivali traditsiooni hoidmise ja korraldamise eest. Raivo Palmaru Kultuuriminister Lugupeetud filmitegijad! Pärnul on hea meel ja me oleme uhked, et taas, nüüd juba 19. korda toimub meie linnas hr. Mark Soosaare algatatud ja tema ettevõtmisel teoks saav Pärnu dokumentaal- ja antropoloogiafilmide festival. Üha kiirustavas ja kommertsile orienteeritud maailmas on kosutavaks oaasiks vaimurännakutel iga selline teos, mis aitab meil kasvõi hetketi minna tagasi algusse, oma juurte juurde ja kajastab inimest tema looduslikes ning loomulikes tegevustes ehedalt. Soovin kõigile osavõtjatele ja festivalile kaasaelavatele külalistele meeldejäävaid filmipäevi ja loodan, et festivalil esitatavad tööd annavad palju uusi mõtteid ja ideid kõigile. Edu Teile, head filmisõbrad! Ahti Kõo Pärnu linnapea.

4 4 Head sõbrad! Hoolimata 9.jaanuaril Pärnut tabanud hiiglaslikust üleujutusest, oleme elus koos 19-aastase filmifestivaliga.oleme iga festivaliga püüdnud leida uusi olulisi sõnumeid. Ega see väga keeruline olegi, sest uued sõnumid tulevad suurest maailmast, mis vist kunagi valmis ei saa nagu öeldkse nii inimese kui ka linna kohta. Seitse ETV ekraanil võistlevat filmi on pühendatud moodsatele perekonnamudelitele. Kaasaegne perekond ei sünni enam vajadusest tagada varanduse pärimist. Üha enam tõuseb esiplaanile armastus ja uue elu sünd, mille kaitsmiseks on ka vaja perekonda. Uued kooselu mudelid on valulised neile, kes tahaksid muutumatut, traditsioonilist maailma iga hinna eest säilitada. See pole aga võimalik. Paratamatult tuleb põlisväärtusi hoides kohaneda uute tuultega. Täiesti uudne on meditsiinifilmide programm. See viib vaataja teadjameeste ja rituaalidega ravitsejate juurde, uurib uut salapärast viirushaigust Aafrikas, kiikab vaimuhaigete loomemaailma. Meditsiinifilme hindab Pärnu arstidest erizhürii legendaarse tohtri Külvar Mandi juhtimisel. Pärnu Uue Kunsti Muuseumis toimunud traditsiooniline filmikava suurtest isiksustest kunstis on laienenud lisaks tuntud loojatele näitame ka portreid kummalistest, veel tunnustamata loojatest. Kuna sel aastal on meil palju filme Aafrikast, siis avame festivalipäeviks Epp Meisneri uhke maalinäituse Namiibiast. Kuna festivalile saabub mitmeid oma eriala suurepäraseid meistreid ning seegi festival leiab aset taas vanas armsas koolimajas, siis muutuvad mõned klassitoad meistriklassideks. Iisraeli fotograaf Boaz Tal ning ameerika fotokunstnik Mark Sadan õpetavad hea aktifoto tegemise saladusi, televisioonis võistlevate perefilmide autorid Murray Nossel, Lars Westman, Walther Grotenhuis ja Cinta Forger on palutud õpetama jälgimisfilmi metoodikat. Oma teadmisi annavad edasi ka eesti dokumentaalfilmi klassik Mati Põldre ja allakirjutanu. Filmikunst ilma muusikata on sama, mis pulm ilma pruudiröövita. Hea dokfilmigi tegemiseks on vaja üht helinat, mis kasvab rinna sees suuremaks (Ernst Enno luulest, äsjalahkunud kolleegi Olav Neulandi üht filmi meenutades). Just seepärast püüame täita Nikolai tänava pärnaallee, mis seob meie kaht festivalimaja, mõnusa muusikaga. Pillimehed ja lauljad võistlevad parima tänavamuusiku tiitlile, mis kuulutatakse välja meie auhinnaõhtul 9.juulil. Samal suveööl annab Riigikogu esimees Ene Ergma üle Eesti Rahva Auhinna ETV-s võistelnud parima filmi autorile. Laienenud on ka meie festivali geograafia. Muusikafilme näitame Villu Veski jazzifestivalil Ju jääb! Muhumaal, filme rahvuslikust käsitööst, kalurite ja talurahva elust Anu Raua Heimtali Rahvamajas ja Manija saare külakeskuses. Loodame, et osa enam kui sajast festivalifilmist jõuab eeltuleval talvel ka ETV ekraanile. Eriti tahaksin soovitada neid dokfilme, mis jutustavad laste elust taigas, vihmametsades, sõjakolletes. Mitte kõikjal pole ju elu nii ladus kui Eestis Mõnusat festivali! Mark Soosaar Festivali pealik Dear friends, Despite the great flood on January 9th in sinking Pärnu, we are still alive together with the 19-years-old film festival. With every festival we have tried to find fresh essential messages. It appears not to be very difficult because new messages are coming from all around the world which never seems to be as complete as any town or human being. The seven films on air of Estonian TV are dedicated to modern family models. The family of today is not born from the need to guarantee inheritance of fortune. Love and birth of a new life needing protection is getting more and more important. The new models of marriage are painful for those who would like to have the traditional world preserved unchanged. But it is not possible. Anyway, we have to adjust to new winds. The program of healthcare films is completely new at the festival. The films on health care are judged by the jury of doctors from Pärnu, headed by the legendary medical man Külvar Mand. The traditional film program at the Museum of New Art in Pärnu of well-known personalities in art will be expanded: next to the portraits of unknown and a bit strange creators. As we are showing many films on Africa, we have opened an outstanding exhibition of paintings from Namibia by Epp Meisner. Several great masters are coming to the festival. As the festival is taking place in an old and lovely schoolhouse, their master classes are going to be held. Two photo artists, the Israeli Boaz Tal and the American Mark Sadan will teach the secrets of making a good nude photo. The authors of the family films Murray Nossel, Lars Westman, Walther Grotenhuis and Cinta Forger are asked to share their experiences of the continuous following shooting method. The Estonian film maker Mati Põldre and me are going to spread our knowledge, too. There is no good wedding without bride kidnapping in Estonia and there is no good film without music in the film history. At least, a feeling of musical composition must be in the foundation of editing. This is why the festival street will be filled with music. There is going to be a contest on the title of the best street musician which will be announced on July, 9 th. The same night Ene Ergma, the speaker of Riigikogu (Estonian Parliament) will give the Estonian People s Award to the best film of the TV competition. The geography of our festival has expanded, too. We are going to show the music films at the Future Music Festival Juu Jääb! on Muhu Island, films on traditional handicraft, life of fishermen and farmers at the Heimtali Folk Club run by recognized textile artist Anu Raud and at the community center of Manija Island. Hopefully, a part of more than a hundred films from our festival will be shown on the Estonian National TVchannel in future. I would especially advise the films about children in the rainforests, taiga and hotbeds of war. It is not everywhere that life can be as easy as in Estonia. Have a good time at the festival! Mark Soosaar Chief of the festival

It is no use to put up a struggle. Young Kairgul is calmly waiting for the school bus. She does not suspect that the man hanging out on the curb has evil intentions, but the next moment, he pushes her into a passing car and kidnaps her to become his bride. I don t want to be late for school, she shouts. Your classes are over, he dryly responds. In Kyrgyzstan, Central Asia, men abduct a bride if they are not rich enough to pay a dowry. The kidnapping is often discussed beforehand in the potential groom s family: who has a car available, what the girl should be able to do, and where she will live. After the abduction, the new in-laws inform the girl s parents who often accept the proposal. Kidnapping a bride is the usual state of affairs.

Moreover, he strived all his life to meet relevant scientists: he met Sigmund Freud, J.D. Watson, and many others. The scientists were surprised to discover that beyond the façade of a clownish showman there was a genius.

Grant Williams Edited by Dan Fredley Distributed by Documentary Educational Resources, 101 Morse Street, Watertown, MA 02472, USA Tel Fax In the Navajo language there is neither a word for religion nor art. The only word that could be used to describe both is hozho beauty, balance, order and harmony. Navajo history is turbulent and in order to survive the Navajo had to adapt. Baskets are a part of this history, changing throughout time and adapting with the people. They contribute to the balance, harmony, and beauty of Navajo life. In the 1970s Navajo basketry experienced a renaissance led by a group of families in the Douglas Mesa region of the Utah reservation. The film depicts both the new and old roles baskets play in the lives of contemporary basket-weavers. SISEMUSEST VÄLJAPOOLE Autor April Chabries Navaho keeles puuduvad sõnad religiooni ja ka kunsti tähistamiseks. Mõlemat võib aga väljendada sõnaga hozho ilu, tasakaal, kord ja harmoonia. Navahod on oma tormilise ajaloo vältel pidanud paljude muutustega kohanema. Niisamuti on muutusi läbi teinud nende kultuuris harmooniat, tasakaalu ja ilu tähistav iidne korvipunumise kunst.

People climb mountains or make pilgrimages just to see or touch them. They prostrate themselves or engage in rituals in their presence, caress them in the hopes of absorbing some of their magic, they enshrine them in temples or pass them on to descendants; wear them or store them in treasure houses or sometimes burn them. An individual object might hold power over only one group or even just one person, but the phenomenon of power objects is universal. By filming power objects around the world things that are precious because people believe they are and revealing the myriad activities and behaviors that take place around them, this documentary presents a new way of looking at what is happening all around us, all the time. Belief is not just religion; it drives the stock market, it determines how we deal with history and our personal memories, it underlies racism and war. Bringing together diverse cultures, characters, visual styles, music and fascinating objects, MANA helps us see the essential, invisible element underlying them all.
