The violence and threats to rights defenders Mexico's human.

Josefina Chavez for Notebooks Feminist

The National Violence Against Women Human Rights Defenders in Mexico took place from 14 to 17 October 2010 in Mexico City. Approximately 60 women from several states of Mexico gathered to share about their experience and know what they are facing violence to carry out their work in the various movements, cities and states. This meeting helped to note that levels of violence stemming from the controversial national security policy in its many dimensions, impacting at an alarming life dedicated to women's rights. Intimidation, threats and death are risks and costs in Mexico have to deal with activists committed to defending human rights.

precautionary measures in their application with many problems, but above all suspicion by discredit and mistrust towards the institutions involved in providing this facility. An example of this is that the meeting could not be present Margarita Guadalupe Martínez (Liaison and Communication and Training) as the State did not guarantee protection to the city of Mexico. Another recent example is that of students while demonstrating and gunned their way to a forum against the militarization of the federal police in Ciudad Juarez Who's going to protect members of the same police who attacked? Also in the same city Cipriana Jurado (Center for Women Workers' Organization), threatened with death, could not have adequate protection despite the request for precautionary measures, by Amnesty International and Human Rights Commission (NHRC). He had to leave the country. There is a long list of cases to which are added the murder and intimidation against journalists, acts which threaten freedom of expression.

The problem for defenders who are denouncing the abuses and violations of human rights of military and police forces is that the criminalization of their participation. Faced with this reality, what is the alternative? The issue is of high priority for the High Commissioner United Nations, who has recommended the creation of a national mechanism for protection and the adoption of special protocols for investigation of assault.

During Meeting were heard testimony impressive, they put goosebumps. Surprisingly, fortunately still surprising that most participants maintain a high commitment, clarity of the need for continued work in defending human rights against injustice and impunity. The composition of the participants also reflected the plurality of women with very different experiences, backgrounds and movements. Many of them have a long road of struggle.

was a great success the achievement of this national meeting, the background to the given months earlier, when the city of Oaxaca was held in April, Mesoamerican Meeting on Human Rights Defenders. In the proceedings of that meeting emphasized that "information on the specific situation of human rights defenders is still inadequate and is often invisible to the institutions, organizations and movements." Hence, there is agreement on the need to develop diagnostics to find and examine what are the characteristics and specificity of the violence they are facing women human rights defenders in Central America and Mexico.

The key point is visible, and simultaneously contribute to the generation of support for protecting the integrity of women defenders. And on another level also support elements to create real mechanisms of protection. The visibility in this case means recognizing the legitimacy and disseminate their work and their beliefs as well as the correctness of all the struggles and causes that are fighting, the women of Juarez, Atenco, Chiapas, Oaxaca, Triquis, the San Juan Copala, that of Guerrero, Guanajuato, Veracruz and many other states, told their stories, the violence in their homes, in their movements, how they live everyday as hell face where they develop. Of diverse origins, but that yes all equally abused, threatened, harassed. In various sessions, suddenly you hear the silence in solidarity against the pain of loss, of the killings and detentions of their loved ones, for the murdered women as women, the dead who are still fighting for justice the syrup, "New Utopia?

is women who dare to speak out, face to the military and its systematic violations of human rights to the various local police to mark the end to their impunity in the flesh facing increased paramilitaries. The objective is to recognize the contribution of women human rights defenders; join efforts, strengthen links; respond effectively against the risks and attacks by advocacy work, reporting and advocacy. For the coordinators and organizers and the participants is clear that we are facing a rise of authoritarianism, the most conservative and right and that it is present throughout the region are pushing policies that help to set contexts and environments of fear in the population. Hence the importance of the analysis, exchange, to have spaces that allow personal reflection, which in this case takes on a fundamental, the body is the place where the strategy of fear attacks. The body is then free space to recover for rebirth. Building strengths needed passes through the collective recognition in all respects.

The Mexican human rights defenders are the lists of the contents of the daily nightmare, intimidation, threats of all kinds, integrity and freedom, defamation to delegitimize as public spokespersons, violence and obscene verbal attacks, disappearances; media climate justification of aggression by being involved, assault and sexual harassment and derision from the authorities, threats typically include sexual connotations. At the end is death.

When the turn to analyze the causes analysis becomes more complex, an adverse climate for women defenders breathing. The church-state conspiracy, comes out, the impact of national security policies that promote social rupture, the disruption of social movements, human trafficking networks, corruption, violence femicide, misogyny. And much more.

The advantage of tracing the disjointed policies is precisely the realization of this national meeting, the analysis of the situation that pervades the work areas provides both routes, meetings and strength and the need acuerpamiento; together to respond to emergencies, to clothe the persecuted, to give solidarity to those most in need, to keep fighting because the only way things will change, there were flesh and blood. How do you, mate? Asked one woman to another: "I am a sad woman, and live, sadly, every day when I get home at night after the meetings, put loud music and I get to mourn, and every day "

"KNIFE CLUB OR THE FEAR IS DRAWN FROM THE DEAD.

For
Andrès Romero Baltodano.



After the wonderful International Documentary 12 where we go from desert to the tears of a Russian poet suicide and saw many "Docus" that amid this storm of love and silence we have the presence of producer Marta Andreus brought the documentary "Palo/108 Knife" by Renate Costa (Paraguay.2010) we sneak up on this film and with tears in our door we write this ...






there under the shadow of a man perhaps his last and that the shadows do not give it the edge ...







108.
A larger number of points. Arabic numbers passing through creation of the Arabs over the issue of free association with the name, but in reality they are invented in India.
108.
could be the result of a hotel room where James Dean read an excerpt from the Koran.
could be the number you put in a sack when it comes to the laundry, in a yellow slip. Paraguay
But say 108 is scary, maybe panic fright.
Let us place ourselves in the fifties to give us more panic:
Stroessner in Paraguay.
Peron in Argentina. Trujillo
Dominican Republic.
Getulio Vargas in Brazil.
Anastasio Somoza in Nicaragua.
It breaks the ground and bury it who do not sympathize. On the streets, silence takes over the population and who try to walk in the opposite direction to power, will be eliminated or tortured or simply disappeared. And if that happens to those who are on the banks of the political, those minorities will be excluded, that same society has the luxury of "set aside" under conditions of morality uniquely and absurd?. Renate
Paraguaya Costa is a filmmaker, who once came to Barcelona at the Masters in Creative Documentary at the Universitat Pompeu Fabra and met Marta Andreu, who told us that initially Renate I wanted was to tell the story of his uncle, who was found dead naked in the backyard.

all started with a dead, but they did not know that behind this, many more would come knocking on the door of this harrowing documentary called "wooden knife / 108." Renate
wondered why his uncle was "rejected" and "island" within the same household and the fact that the guy was gay is what leads her to begin a journey that will make travel between the macabre and happy and between love and the eternal.

documentary narration so particular and so epiphanic, which lets you build with no logic but logic architect particular musician or photographer of the post Russian revolution. A window here that hunts with a dog that barks, a napkin which is listed a phone, which is broken at the tips, which can be sewn to an avenue where they torture just for fun.

lasted three years and reconstructive alchemical process, "said Andreu, that the more impressed them more roads opened and closed, appeared like a game tracks Arsenio Lupin, talked about, others were silent, the shadow of a monster called Stroessner (who ironically died little calm in his bed in Brazil) who is blamed for more than 4,000 people were killed and many disappeared, is making a shadow on the past Renate's uncle's hand Renate deep conversations with her father, taking a turn to match the box, where sometimes the referee away (such as missing Paraguayos) and sometimes in silence left the ring like a wounded sea lion, who calls his love as the last resort to float.
Float. Sink. Nadar. That's what happens in this thrilling documentary. The story may be the neighbor of the family, the millions living in anxious states, where its states, kneel and shot fulminate like bulbs. The story goes
entering territories to remove the masks, to have panicked why a guy like Stroessner, of leaning to the plight of millions of human beings for choosing a wig, are kicked and scorned while others (which is not the wig) probably are more lethal to their own people. Finally
a painful biopsy appears as a snake that enters the body, to discover the disease of indifference and shame that can nest in a family within their own members.
the end a homeless stray dog \u200b\u200bpursues the camera and you do not know if it is a heartbreaking tribute to the 108, the voiceless, those arrested for the crime of an announcer in 1959 for being gay (may 108 kill people or be one that is more likely the opposite?).
Upon leaving the room we have a lump in my throat and a "supreme discomfort" of the world know that these things happen, while millions of eyes watching the TV and say, shrugging his shoulders, something be done.

JUBILEE: A JOURNEY IN TIME

By Mary Lucia Moncayo

Student Special Broadcasting

The Moviola


Derek Jarman proposes a fictional journey through time. Two different and contradictory eras in time and space, but also essentially for to each other in terms of the possibility of the hypothesis, producing a rich and articulate particular time and space.

Be Part of the golden age of English around the year 1558 and 1600 during the reign of Elizabeth I (Elizabeth I) called the Virgin Queen, in the very emergence of the British Empire, a term coined by John Dee also a historical figure who accompanies the virgin queen on a journey both prophetic and apocalyptic.

This commences overtones are distilled from the director's personality and his interest in the history of their nation. Especially in the Elizabethan period which also arise so great literary figures as William Shakespeare and Edmund Spencer.
John Dee played by Richard O'Brien manages a subtle and loquacious language as epic allegory, showing the taste of the director of the Spencerian stanza 9 Alexandrine verses.

The delicate and polite interlocutions between the "Virgin Queen" and his guardian lead to another historic event, the growing interest mathematician and astronomer John Dee in the world of spiritualism and magic. These facts allow queen and guardian to soak in the invocation of a divine spirit (Ariel), who at the request of the queen's plunge into the "waters of knowledge."

is then being transported from Mortlake (house of John Dee) in 1597 to a later time, to England in 1977 where reality set in terms opposite to those of an ideal society. A company located in the distant future where the consequences of manipulation and indoctrination by the mass media industry produce the extermination of all citizens.

noticed a difference between the scenes of Queen Elizabeth and her companions of the time contrasted with the punks of the future. The scenes of the queen have a melodramatic but preserve the historical plausibility. It distinguishes a diffuse contrast between light and shadow that becomes a significant factor in the connotation of the shares; promoting effect of nostalgia, reverie. As regards the representation of actors perceived Brechtian style, stylish body giving centrality to the movement overall.

But the future of the successive scenes the director opts for a representation and different treatment, similar to cinema verite, leading to a subjective realism by increasing the expressiveness to the work of a dynamic and energetic chamber, constantly using the zoom, decisions consonant with the actions of the characters are always moving and restless.

The following sequence introduces us to many of the main characters in the film and we are instructed in the new order of things in this dystopian universe. Abolished authority, a world without a clear hierarchy that exercise social control over the individual. Point where most people tend to say that Jubilee is a punk movie and makes apology to anarchy (anarchy as synonymous with disorder and civil war.). There is no denying that the aesthetic premises of the punk movement and nurture the film, but the intention is the opposite Jarman, the director forces us to reconsider the price of absolute freedom, no one could survive in a world. Despite this personal view of anarchy both held by the punk movement of the seventies (disorder and war) as the director's vision (product of fear and horror that infuse governments with the eventual destruction and lack of government) seems appropriate to reformulate the basic tenets of anarchy: anarchy

Who says government says negation, denial
Who says government statement said the people;
affirmation of the people who says says individual freedom;
Who says individual liberty, says sovereignty of each;
Who says sovereignty of each, says equality;
Who says equality, says solidarity or fraternity;
Who says fraternity, says social order.

said this and making clear the meaning of the term anarchy, we could take the nihilism which are governed by the vast majority of the characters in the film.
Amyl Nitrate is revealed after the introduction by Mad as daunting as the heroine of temporary space. It is in this scene where he distills the ideological position of the violent biker gang. Amyl states where obsolescence and uselessness of art at that time, he to his view it was necessary to channel the desires of people to a safe harbor and replaced by fantasy.

With the abolition of power structures and once the wishes come true this channeling of desires was no longer necessary and establishing new premises: "make your Desires reality", "do not dream it, be it ".
truths of that time are emphasized by the camera set rigid, static front. However
the next scene where Amyl recalls with nostalgia his dedication to dance is important for several aspects: a.

The use of allegory: they represent people through art and death. A strong counterpoint that represents the beauty dying around the destruction. B.

Considering that the story is transmitted to us through images and sounds, the embodiment of this sequence is full of underlying code. The image changes its format, filmed in Super 8 and accompanied by classical music that represents the aesthetic point of view of the now defunct ruling class. sound and visual treatment suggests a distant past and outdated.


c. The burning of books, jubilee books obsolete represent an object of a thorough knowledge that can not be acquired through images. Trivial thing for the new order of things where you own importance is what can be purchased through images, a superficial glance. The following

used scenes shots of the homes where the gang of women bikers with the Sphinx and Angel incestuous twins. In an internal monologue Amyl presents to friends and elaborates on his conception of history. Here the long shots, long deep compounds are used to transmit large amount of information that forces the eye to move objects to the characters and the environment obtaining large depth of field full of iconic information.

The staging of all visible elements in the film, stage, costumes, props and lighting is demonstrative of the use of the nascent punk aesthetic and iconography of the seventies.

exist in the film a number of scenes that, although scattered throughout the film have a strong causal thread and give it a temporary drive to work, Bod (short Boudica was a warrior queen the Iceni, he heads several British tribes, including the Trinovants neighbors, for the longest uprising against the Roman occupation between 60 and 61 d. C., during the reign of Emperor Nero), is in hot pursuit harassing a woman, he runs into an abandoned cabin where she is killed, it is worth noting here the style of the author to write counterpoint images with strong visual sense that gravitate between beauty and destruction (remember the sequence of the dancer) here despite the explicit violence of the murder of women, the image tends to end the barbarity of the delicacy of beauty represented by the flowers in the foreground the scene.

After being murdered women are stripped of their belongings, Bod escapes. After a child picks up a diamond near the body of the murdered woman and look through it. In the next scene reveals the identity of the woman killed in the proud moment Bod shows off your booty, it's Isabel II. Later
travelers passed along with the angel clairvoyant reach the scene of Elizabeth II, the dwarf companion of the queen of the past, curious, wandering through the rubble to find the child, who had the gem, this returns to the ubiquitous eyes of the angel. This scene demonstrates the skill with which the director handles the film time setting up a paradox.
The gem gift from his ancestors is recovered by travelers from the past avoiding being lost and so return to the past to once again be inherited by their descendants.
This fact expresses the idea of \u200b\u200beternal return and restitution of a historical nature and thus distorts the reflection on the historical reconstruction of the reality posed by Amyl nitrate. Jubilee

despite its obvious aesthetic and iconography of punk and the various appearances of musical icons of this movement that has led to assert that this film is a "punk film" is far from all of the true essence of the work, which the author delves into the true nature of art and the position of artist in the World (this reflection is expressed in the character of Viv which is the most humanly portrayed able to feel and love and who holds the key to a better future.)
