Ashkal Alwan is hosting a public talk with Harun Farocki, a visiting professor of the Home Workspace Program 2012-13 and a filmmaker.<\/p>\n

Abstract:<\/b> If you only know the documentary film from television then you might believe that such a film could not exist without a voice-over commentary. It is easier to produce or to rework words than images; in industrial documentary film production, words are therefore used to compensate or to amend what images do not have.<\/p>\n

We have to examine the functions a commentary can have in a documentary film. If it represents the images like a company represents its work with a business report; or if the commentary really opens up the images or if it takes the effort to study them.<\/p>\n

Without the commentary we could hardly align the heterogeneous image subjects of Chris Marker\u2019s Sans Soleil; but nevertheless, each episode has to reveal Marker\u2019s worldview – beyond the commentary. We have to examine in which order the images are structured, independent from any value a commentary ascribes to them.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
