No friend but the mountains : writing from Manus Prison / by Boochani, Behrouz,author.; Tofighian, Omid,translator.;
"In 2013, Kurdish journalist Behrouz Boochani was illegally detained on Manus Island, a refugee detention centre off the coast of Australia. He has been there ever since. This book is the result. Laboriously tapped out on a mobile phone and translated from the Farsi. It is a voice of witness, an act of survival. A lyric first-hand account. A cry of resistance. A vivid portrait through five years of incarceration and exile."--

Walter MurchOriginally produced by First Run Features in 2024.Why does the uniquely cinematic language of film editing work? In real life we don't instantly jump from one viewpoint to another. And yet, film viewers effortlessly understand, and don’t even notice, most edits. This has led to the suspicion that film editing exploits some universal features of human perception. Film editor Walter Murch, scholar David Bordwell and a handful of eminent psychologists present this compelling portrait of the profound naturalness of film editing.Mode of access: World Wide Web.
