Berlin Today Award 2011 – the Berlinale Talent Campus short film competition. 150 young filmmakers from 55 countries responded to the call for projects that address the competition’s motto “Leaving the familiar sector”

Hackney Lullabies

The short documentary Hackney Lullabies examines the experiences of three young mothers in Hackney (London) from different cultural backgrounds. It asks them to sing lullabies to their babies and to talk about their hopes and anxieties for their new lives together, while taking us for a stroll along their favourite routes. The film enters the intimate space between mother and her child and asks the question, what do lullabies sound like when the mother is from another land and in what sense do they transform the space around the child creating a familiar sector in an unfamiliar land? What is in her mind when she sings a lullaby in her native language? What does she remember and what does she wish for her baby? Hackney Lullabies will visit iconic places in the area, making a sketch of modern Hackney. Each lullaby from a faraway land will bring out a different face and charm of this borough.

That is the Global Favorit Subject in the Film Industry...because there are real Stories!

British sarcasm is the best thing in this case :))))))

Four Lions tells the story of a group of British jihadists who push their abstract dreams of glory to the breaking point. As the wheels fly off, and their competing ideologies clash, what emerges is an emotionally engaging (and entirely plausible) farce. In a storm of razor-sharp verbal jousting and large-scale set pieces, Four Lions is a comic tour de force; it shows that – while terrorism is about ideology – it can also be about idiots.

That happened today, in this century.

 

Our political enemies think the poster is racist, but it just gives a simple message,” Bruno Walliser, a local chimney sweep running for Parliament on the party ticket, said at the rally, held on a Schwerzenbach farm outside Zurich. “The black sheep is not any black sheep that doesn’t fit into the family. It’s the foreign criminal who doesn’t belong here, the one that doesn’t obey Swiss law. We don’t want him.” 

 

In century where all the talk is about Global economic policy!

Immigration rules threaten to destroy Britain's arts reputation!

Travel to italy!

Italian measures by Silvio Berlusconi's government to restrict immigration have not deterred an influx of foreigners from outside Europe.

Last year, the number of illegal immigrants entering the country doubled compared to 2007.

At the same time, some legal immigrants who have lived in Italy most of their lives now fear they will end up on the wrong side of the border.

Prime Minister Berlusconi’s government is on a crusade against immigrants. Last month, it issued an emergency decree allowing authorities to detain immigrants for up to six months and medical staff to report illegals for deportation. Under the new proposal, any immigrant could be thrown out if an Italian citizen reports them as a security threat.

“This government makes me feel like I’m not a human being – but a machine, – I’m only here when they need me.”

The new Law No. 189, also known at the Bossi-Fini Law, amends the 1998 Immigration Act and introduces new clauses. Some of the most significant changes include: immigrant quotas, mandatory employer-immigrant contracts, stricter illegal immigration deportation practices, amnesty for illegal immigrants who have worked and lived in the country for over three months, and new provincial immigration offices to help manage immigrant worker and family reunification cases. The law also provides for legalization of two types of irregular immigrants: those employed either as domestic workers and home-helpers or as dependent workers. These individuals may qualify for regularization, provided that they have not received a deportation order.
