Berlinale
Shorts Go Abroad in
08 and 09 Aug 2014,
7 pm
Goethe Institut
56-58 Nguyễn Thái
Học, Ba Đình, Hà Nội
The Goethe
Institute presents already for the second time the Berlinale Shorts in
In the series
“Berlinale Shorts Go Abroad” short films of the International Film Festival
of Berlin go on a journey. Ten short movies were chosen to be shown in the
Goethe Institute Hanoi at the 8th and 9th of August at 7pm.
“The Berlinale
Shorts are a forum for the short form in the festival. A place for
uncompromising films, which take an undisguised look on the present.
Filmmakers are artists, who are aware of the formal possibilities and
furthermore have the whole picture of cinematography in sight. Berlinale
Shorts are films, which go beyond the event and contribute to the
understanding. At once around the globe and back. The beginning is everywhere
and here and now.” Maike Mia Höhne, curator of the Berlinale Shorts, invites
the hanoian audience: “Please come and see by yourself!”
This year the short
movies deal with very current topics. They range from surreal to real, from
marvelous to cruel. The movies discuss a world which changes dramatically and
endangers nature. This world forces nature to accommodate itself to it. To be
ruthlessly and without morals. But the movies also talk about war and grief:
How can you face them? How can you handle them? And what follows?
A highlight of the
programs is surely the movie “Three Stones for Jean Ginet” which has already
won an award and which will be played on several festivals this year. It is
about desire and promises, a city, a friendship and the narration of a hidden
story.
The Berlinale
Shorts will be presented by the Goethe Institute in nine South-East Asian
countries. For the first time they are welcomed by the Goethe Institute in Ho
Chi Minh City Shorts in its cultural salon at the 15th and 16th of August at
7pm.
The International
Film Festival of Berlin, also well-known as Berlinale, is the major film

Documentary
Screening “Who Is William Onyeabor?” and DJ Set with Dan Lo
Thu 07 Aug 2014, 8
pm
ATK
73a Mai Hac De,
This is a night to
celebrate the Nigerian funk musician and band-leader, William Onyeabor, who
had a series of records in the late 70s and 80s which exalted him into an
iconic status in the history of Nigerian pop, often considered the founder of
Nigerian electro Afro-funk.
His biography has
been shrouded in mystery due to his own refusal to discuss it or his music
since becoming a born-again Christian in the middle of the 1980s and retiring
to pursue a career as a businessman running his own flour mill.
We will show the
recent documentary about the mysterious man, Fantastic Man, and follow it up
with a set from Saigon’s Afrobeat expert Dan Lo [The Observatory / Eclectic
Aesthetic], who will be in charge of the decks all the night long, set to put
William Onyeabor classics on alongside many other Afro hits, leading up to
their influence on sounds of today.

Viet Pride
2014 – Together
01, 02 and 03 Aug
2014
In August 2012,
Viet Pride the
following year was a significant step in strengthening the movement and
expanding the scope to include the Viet Pride scholarship and an employment
equality campaign.
This year, 2014,
Viet Pride will be celebrated for the third time in
Pride aims to raise
awareness of sexual diversity and the right to love that every person
regardless of their sexual orientation and gender identity is entitled to.
Besides that,
Viet Pride 2014
also puts a strong emphasis on forging the connection and solidarity amongst
diverse LGBTQ groups from all over the country through a series of
discussions and networking activities. These two directions of focus are much
needed in the time and place where equality and dignity for people of sexual
minorities are circumscribed by the language of culture, and the consensus,
solidarity within the LGBTQ community is vital to lead the movement forward.
The preparation for
Viet Pride 2014 is being carried out with great excitement across the
country, involving civil society organisations both in the North and the
South of Vietnam, as well as foreign embassies, social enterprises, and the
strategic partner of Viet Pride – the Goethe Institute. The organising
committee also hopes to bring over LGBTQ organizations from overseas for
exchange of good practices and transnational camaraderie. A great source of
support comes from Civil Rights Defenders to put together the event and invite
LGBTQ community leaders to
Speaking of the
development and remarkable progress of Viet Pride, Nguyen Thanh Tam, director
of the project since 2012, said, “Viet Pride is making small, yet firm and
consistent, steps in fostering social acceptance and respect that has been
sorely lacking in the Vietnamese society. I am glad that in only three years,
Viet Pride has grown to become an annual tradition and symbol of respect for
diversity, with Vietnamese LGBTQ youth and allies quickly becoming the
leading force. I also appreciate the fact that Viet Pride has proven to be
not an isolated event or confined within Vietnam but part of the global LGBTQ
movement that is changing the world in a way unimaginable just a few decades
ago!”
