    Return of the Nightingales : The Afghanistan National Institute of Music, Kabul (2013)
    London, England :Royal Anthropological Institute,
    Details
    Language: English
    Pages: 1 online resource (33 minutes) , 003205
    Keywords: Sarmast, Ahmad Naser. ; Afghanistan National Institute of Music. ; Music ; Music Instruction and study ; Music Social aspects ; Bhutan ; Documentary films.
    Abstract: In 2010 Afghan musicologist Dr. Ahmad Sarmast opened the Afghanistan National Institute of Music (ANIM), a coeducational vocational music school in Kabul that teaches Afghan, Indian and Western music. In 2011 the Society for Education, Music and Music Education (SEMPRE), an organisation that was offering financial support for ANIM staff development, sent ethnomusicologist and film-maker John Baily to visit the school. Made in the observational cinema style, the film provides a lyrical portrayal of the school's activities, with an emphasis on the teaching, rehearsal and performance of the music, building up to a performance of Ravel's Bolero for the visiting Swedish Ambassador.The film projects a very positive image of young people in Afghanistan today, challenging the usual negative stereotypes favoured by Western media.

    El Etnografo / (2012)
    London, England :Royal Anthropological Institute,
    Details
    Language: Spanish , English , South American Indian (Other)
    Pages: 1 online resource (86 minutes) , 012529
    Keywords: Palmer, John ; Anthropologists Biography. ; Mataco Indians Social life and customs. ; Indians of South America ; Indians of South America Civil rights ; Ethnology ; Bhutan ; Nonfiction films. ; Documentary films.
    Abstract: John Palmer arrived in a Wichí community, located in Argentina, thirty years ago as an anthropologist - today he has married a Wichí woman with whom he has five sons in the last 5 years, who babble English, Wichí, and Spanish words. As the legal advisor of the Lapacho Mocho community, and as a part of the family, he works to obtain Qatu's freedom, a member of the Wichí community who has been in jail for 5 years waiting for an oral hearing on a charge of abusing his wife's daughter. The film gains depth and impact from its more intimate domestic interludes involving John's wife Tojweya their young children - including a baby only weeks old. So while Palmer has achieved considerable eminence in his field, winning the Royal Anthropological Institute's Lucy Mair Medal in 2009, his immersion into Wichí culture, history and customs has become much more than a matter of academic ethnography.

    Letters from Palestine / (2011)

    Language: English
    Pages: 1 online resource (37 minutes) , 003612
    Keywords: Families. ; Arab-Israeli conflict. ; Letters. ; Palestine. ; Bhutan ; Documentary films.
    Abstract: Imagine discovering an unsolved family mystery in your great-grandfather's letters - a mystery nobody in your family wants to talk about. My great-grandfather, Angelo Levi Bianchini, set out for Palestine on a diplomatic mission in the 1920s and never came back. After spending a few months in Palestine, he had become a vocal advocate for Jewish-Arab coexistence but his views were often unpopular. To his ninety year old daughter Angela, my grandmother, the mystery of his death remains an open wound. This is the story of a journey into the unresolved questions of the Middle Eastern conflict which are still being addressed today, ninety years after my great-grandfather's journey. In a land divided by a wall that in his time would have been unthinkable, today it seems that his dream has been destroyed forever. But in this ongoing state of conflict - the power of his voice still resonates today.

    Language: English
    Pages: 1 online resource (60 minutes) , 005910
    Keywords: Hunting ; Fowling ; Gannets. ; Bhutan ; Documentary films.
    Abstract: This film follows a vanishing community's beloved and unique tradition. The Gaelic speakers of Lewis and Scotland are the only people in the EU exempt from a ban on hunting gannets, but they are only permitted to hunt them once a year on a desolate island 40 miles offshore. This is the first time in 50 years that they have allowed it to be filmed, and most likely the last.

And, for the first time since Haddon himself publicly presented the work, his films are 'synchronised' with the team's phonographic recordings.

    Sudan Trilogy.; 2,: Nuba Conversation / (1999)
    London, England :Royal Anthropological Institute,

    Language: English
    Pages: 1 online resource (53 minutes) , 005237
    Keywords: Nubians History 20th century. ; Nubians Ethnic identity. ; Nuba (African people) Social conditions. ; Nuba (African people) Cultural assimilation. ; Nuba (African people) Civil rights. ; Sudan Ethnic relations. ; Sudan History ; Civil War, 1983-2005. ; Bhutan ; Documentary films.
    Abstract: Ten years after he made Kafi's Story, director Arthur Howes returns to the Sudan to find the members of the Nuba who featured in his earlier documentary film. Soon after he had left the Sudan, the mountain area they had been living in became the battlefield of the civil war that has been destroying much of the Sudan ever since. With a government that is attempting to gain absolute control, the people of Nuba have been persecuted, deported, and deprived of much of their land. Children have been put into camps, many of them brainwashed in the military. Many of their fathers have voluntarily joined the army and are now being forced to fight their own people, as they have not been able to find any other way of making a living. Some of the Nuba people have fled to other countries, such as Ethiopia and Kenya. Groups of women have withdrawn further into the mountains. Howes, who had a great deal of difficulty obtaining a visa for the Sudan, manages to find several of the Nuba men and women he filmed back in the late eighties, and their testimonies are, without exception, revealing. He succeeds in organizing secret screenings of Kafi's Story, which they have never seen before, and the contrast between their lives then and now is shocking. It is rare to hear stories collected from so deeply within a community. Howes gives his personal perspective during much of his commentary.
