September 2023ein körper ohne ort
by Mehdi Moradpour
Bedrängt von seinem Partner, unterzieht sich Elija in seinem Heimatland Iran einer Geschlechtsumwandlung. Seine einflussreiche Cousine Mela, die in der Erdölindustrie arbeitet, hilft ihm dabei. Für Elija ist es eine Überlebensstrategie, da Homo- und Bisexualität drastisch bestraft werden, Geschlechtsumwandlungen dagegen toleriert. Transsexualität gilt als heilbare Krankheit. Doch sein Partner verlässt ihn und Elija will raus aus diesem neuen Körper, raus aus einer Familie und einem Staat, die Begehren und Zugehörigkeit mit Gewalt bestimmen. Im freundschaftlichen Dreierbund mit Mela und Fanis bricht Elija nach Europa auf, um eine Chirurgin aufzusuchen, die auf Bionik spezialisiert ist. Elija möchte nicht länger einen nur männlichen oder weiblichen, überhaupt menschlich beschränkten Körper haben, Elija sucht nach einer organischen und technischen Erweiterung. Auch wenn die unsichtbaren sozialen Grenzen und kapitalistischen Zwänge real und erfolgreich existieren. Mehdi Moradpour entwirft mit bildstarker und temporeicher Sprache ein Szenario, in dem die Atmosphären der Stadt-, Meer- und Traumlandschaften in die Körper eindringen und klare Konturen außer Kraft setzen. Utopische und technologische Sehnsüchte treffen auf harte Gesetze, Individuen in Auflösung auf medizinische Tribunale. »ändere die natur«

The ArtsJanuary 2019Reframing difference
Beur and banlieue filmmaking in France
by Carrie Tarr
Reframing difference is the first major study of two overlapping strands of contemporary French cinema, cinema beur (films by young directors of Maghrebi immigrant origin) and cinema de banlieue (films set in France's disadvantaged outer-city estates). Carrie Tarr's insightful account draws on a wide range of films, from directors such as Mehdi Charef, Mathieu Kassovitz and Djamel Bensalah. Her analyses compare the work of male and female, majority and minority film-makers, and emphasise the significance of authorship in the representation of gender and ethnicity. Foregrounding such issues as the quest for identity, the negotiation of space and the recourse to memory and history, she argues that these films challenge and reframe the symbolic spaces of French culture, addressing issues of ethnicity and difference which are central to today's debates about what it means to be French. This timely book is essential reading for anyone interested in the relationship between cinema and citizenship in a multicultural society.
