Originally produced by DEFA Film Library in 1990.An ecological catastrophe in the Ore Mountains on the Czech German border: Foresters and residents desperately try to save this landscape from forest devastation. But they face a doctrinaire state power that turns a blind eye and denies the facts.After the filmmaker’s initial proposal in 1983, permission to film was finally granted in 1987 and the crew shot in the Czech border region of Most and Teplice in 1988. But “forest dieback” was a forbidden word in East Germany. Consequently, none of the film’s eight versions passed censorship and the project was banned. Finally, in 1989/90, after the political changes in East Germany, the original version of the film was reconstructed, and the story about its censorship was included into the film.Mode of access: World Wide Web.

Colette and Justin. by Kassanda, Alain,film director.; Icarus Films (Firm),dst; Kanopy (Firm),dst;

Originally produced by Icarus Films in 2022.Born in Kinshasa and living in Paris, filmmaker Alain Kassanda embodies the classic immigrant dual identity: in the Democratic Republic of Congo he is seen as French, while in France he is seen as Congolese. Determined to understand the colonial legacy from which he comes, Kassanda convinces his grandparents—Colette and Justin—to sit for a series of interviews. Together, they watch old news footage, remember a visit from the Belgian king, and recall what life was like as part of the nascent Black bourgeoisie who served the colonial administration. COLETTE AND JUSTIN begins with one man’s search to understand himself and his roots. But ultimately it is an evocative, poetic and thoughtful meditation on the intersection of political and family history, and the multi-generational destructive reach of colonialism.Mode of access: World Wide Web.

Stories of A. by Belmont, Charles,film director.; Issartel, Marielle,film director.; Icarus Films (Firm),dst; Kanopy (Firm),dst;

Originally produced by Icarus Films in 1973.Shot in Paris in 1973, this feminist film on the fight for abortion rights was banned as soon it was released. A large-scale game of hide-and-seek ensued, as activists created an underground distribution network, hiding the film from the police — and creating an effective model for cinema as an act of civil disobedience in the process. Recently restored, STORIES OF A is both a fascinating historical document, and a reminder of the critical importance of access to abortion.Mode of access: World Wide Web.
