When a device intended to help psychiatric patients falls into the wrong hands\, she must spring into action (and the minds of others) before damage is done.

SUMMARY:Ackland Film Forum Talk: "Intermedial Feeling: How Kon Satoshi Animates the Self"
DESCRIPTION:Talk by Thomas Lamarre\, Middle Eastern and Asian Studies\, Duke University \nThe animated films of Kon Satoshi are often praised for the depth of their psychological portrayals.  But how exactly is psychological depth produced in animation?   To answer this question\, I propose to consider the production of depth in animation in general\, in order to situate the distinctiveness of Kon’s style — in particular\, his use of framing techniques inspired by manga and his tendency to apply techniques of compositing to characters.  A closer look at how these procedures allow Kon to “animate the self” also opens a way to consider some of the criticisms of his films\, in particular\, the criticism they produce psychological depth only by pathologizing characters associated with excessive consumption\, such as otaku and cinephiles\, gamers and advertisers. \nPart of the Triangle Film Salon series\, presented by the UNC-Chapel Hill Department of English and Comparative Literature and the Ackland Film Forum: The Patterned Screen: Rhythm and Repetition in Contemporary Asian Cinema \nLOCATION \nART& Space \nEvening Parking information \nFree and open to the public. \n____________________________________________________________________________________________ \nABOUT THE SERIES \nThe Ackland Film Forum’s Spring 2020 series The Patterned Screen: Rhythm and Repetition in Contemporary Asian Cinema is organized by the UNC Global Cinema Studies program in the Department of English and Comparative Literature\, and the Ackland Art Museum.

SUMMARY:Ackland Film Forum: "Mother" (dir. Bong Joon-ho\, 2009\, South Korea)
DESCRIPTION:Mother \nBong Joon-ho\, South Korea\, 2009 \nIntroduction by I Jonathan Kief\, Assistant Professor of Korean Studies\, UNC-Chapel Hill\, Department of Asian Studies \n2h 9m \nFILM  SYNOPSIS \nAn early murder mystery from the director of Academy Award-winning “Parasite” (2019)\, “Mother” offers an exquisitely complex narrative and the eccentric mix of suspense and comedy for which Bong has become known. When her son is wrongly accused of a crime\, an elderly widow must take both the law\, and the streets\, into her own hands to prove him innocent. A shocking story few contemporary filmmakers would have been able to capture in such a sensitive and engaging manner. \nTICKETS \nTickets available at the Varsity Theatre\, 123 E. Franklin St. \n____________________________________________________________________________________________ \nABOUT THE SERIES \nThe Ackland Film Forum’s Spring 2020 series The Patterned Screen: Rhythm and Repetition in Contemporary Asian Cinema is organized by the UNC Global Cinema Studies program in the Department of English and Comparative Literature\, and the Ackland Art Museum.
