New Film Submissions

Sweet Country (2017) dir. Warwick Thornton

based upon a true story where a white man is murdered as an act of self-defense. It’s an Australian Western that explores colonial oppression, racism, and sexism and is told through an Aboriginal lens

In My Blood It Runs (2019) dir. Maya Newell

A documentary about a young Arrernte boy, Dujuan Hoosan. It depicts the ongoing systematic oppression of Aboriginal Australians and the fear of child removal and child incarnation and explores the struggle of growing up in between two cultures (in this specific case Arrernte and the colonial power of white Australia) as Dujuan is a child healer and a hunter who speaks three languages and is taking upon the traditional roles in his community but he doesn’t meet the expectations of white western schooling

Samson and Delilah (2009) dir. Warwick Thornton

Fourteen-year-old Aboriginal kids Samson and Delilah hail from an isolated community in the Central Australian desert, where - for Samson - sniffing petrol is one of the few available ways of escaping the suffocating grimness of daily life. After a persistent campaign to gain Delilah's affection, Samson steals the community's sole motor car and persuades her to elope with him to Alice Springs.

The “1-800 Happy Birthday” digital voice mail project is transformed into an exhibition in Brooklyn, and welcomes visitors.

If Oscar Grant III could celebrate his birthday, his mother, the Rev. Wanda Johnson, said, he’d welcome the entire neighborhood from his Hayward, Calif., block and serve platters of gumbo, his Nana’s tacos and barbecue chicken. But Johnson now honors his birthday without him, as do other mothers whose children were killed by the police.

“On their birthdays, their chair is empty,” Johnson said in an interview, “where it didn’t have to be.”

Grant was killed in 2009, shot in the back while lying down by a transit officer on New Year’s Day in Oakland, Calif. He was 22.

His mother throws birthday bashes, and has participated in a voice-mail-message art project with a similar aim: to celebrate the lives of people killed by the police or while in police custody. An extension of that project is opening on Friday in a building near the border of Bushwick and East Williamsburg, Brooklyn. The original edition of the work, “1-800 Happy Birthday,” started online in 2020, to allow people to listen to and share celebratory messages for Latino and Black people killed by the police. It was a move, Mohammad Gorjestani, a filmmaker behind the project, said, to flip “the reference point emotionally from death to life.”

In the central space of the exhibition, 12 pay phones, one for each person being honored, are arranged in a circle. Each one, adorned with family photos and flowers, forms a shrine of sorts, where visitors can listen in to the voice mail messages that have been left.

Also in the exhibition, designed to reflect an urban community, a wall mural, created by the artist Kenya Lawton, a.k.a. Art1 Airbrush, stretches across from a translucent brownstone and a bodega. Visitors can buy birthday cards, balloons, prayer candles and flowers at the bodega, to pay tribute to the lives being honored. (All proceeds will be directed to the 1-800 Happy Birthday Family Fund, which will distribute donations equally to causes of a family’s choosing.) Behind the brownstone’s exterior is a family living room. There, visitors can use phones to leave voice mail messages for any of the 12 people, or peruse resource materials on social justice and trauma healing. (Those who can’t make it to the exhibition in person can leave messages via the website 1800HappyBirthday.com.)

For this art exhibition, Gorjestani, the filmmaker who conceived of the project with the studio Even/Odd, which he founded, has teamed up with the nonprofit Worthless Studios and the family members of victims. He said the intent is to create “a mirror for people to reflect in a new way.”

The 12 people the exhibition focuses on are Grant, Eric Garner, Sandra Bland, Philando Castile, Dujuan Armstrong, Stephon Clark, Fred Cox, Xzavier Hill, Donovon Lynch, Sean Monterrosa, Tony Robinson and Mario Woods.

They are referred to as “celebrants,” and the exhibition uses communal spaces like the living room to emphasize family memoriesand personal aspirations. It also incorporates airbrush and typeface styles that are popular in communities of color.

“Don’t think about this as someone you saw in a headline that died, think about this as someone that was living,” Gorjestani said.

A Worthless Studios curator, Klaudia Ofwona Draber, who also leads a residency, KODA, that explores social justice art, worked closely with the family members and friends of all 12 celebrants, and called the experience emotional but rewarding. Among the mementos Ofwona Draber collected for the exhibition included the high school graduation cap of Hill, an 18-year-old who was killed by Virginia State Police troopers in 2021. The hat reads, “not a statistic,” and has a chain-link design bordering the rim. The showcase is a new way of communicating about police brutality, she said, and she hopes the families will be proud of the end result.

“What we’re doing or aiming to do at this exhibition is to, yes, raise awareness but also to inspire action or to work with people wherever they are in their healing journeys,” Ofwona Draber said. The exhibition runs through Jan. 16 at the Worthless Studios space.

The studios’ executive director, Marcia Santoni, said she’s anticipating a visceral reaction as visitors listen to the voice mails. “This, for some people, will be an education and awakening,” she said.

A series of panel discussions will be held on Saturday in conjunction with the exhibition, moderated by Johnson, with other mothers and family members of celebrants who will share memories, resources and healing approaches.

Throughout the project, Johnson said, listening to the voice mail messages from family members reflecting on old memories and strangers singing happy birthday has been a reminder that her son’s life mattered.

“Shouting Oscar’s name 13 years later still reminds us and lets us know that people’s lives are valued,” she said. “They need to be valued.”

Kylian Mbappe issues Chelsea a seal of approval to finalize £43m Rayan Cherki transfer

Kylian Mbappe issues Chelsea a seal of approval to finalize £43m Rayan Cherki transfer It is reported that Chelsea are contemplating a potential transfer for Rayan Cherki, a prominent player from Lyon, and it is worth noting that Kylian Mbappe is already a strong admirer of the young French talent. The Blues have already concluded six new signings during the summer transfer window and are unlikely to halt their activity there. Firstly, Christopher Nkunku completed a transfer worth £52 million from RB Leipzig to join Stamford Bridge, followed by Nicolas Jackson's arrival from Villarreal. The club has also secured the signature of Kendry Paez, a promising young player from Independiente del Valle, who will officially become part of the Chelsea squad once he reaches the age of 18. Furthermore, Dujuan Richards, Alex Matos, and Diego Moreira have all been recruited by Chelsea, with the aim of strengthening the club's academy ranks. Todd Boehly, in his pursuit of acquiring top talents from around the world, continues to bring in promising individuals. Although Mauricio Pochettino had initially planned to add a goalkeeper, central midfielder, and striker to his squad for the upcoming season, the substantial number of departures from the club could lead to even more arrivals than initially anticipated. Kai Havertz's departure from Chelsea has seen him join their London rivals Arsenal, while Mason Mount is expected to complete a £60 million transfer to Manchester United in the near future. Additionally, Kalidou Koulibaly, N'Golo Kante, and Edouard Mendy have left the club, all moving to clubs in Saudi Arabia. Mateo Kovacic has joined Manchester City, the reigning Premier League champions, and Ruben Loftus-Cheek has signed with AC Milan. As a result, Mauricio Pochettino, the manager of Chelsea, will be keen to reinforce his midfield options. Rayan Cherki, a talented young player from Lyon, has emerged as a potential target for the Blues. According to Simon Phillips on Substack, Chelsea is contemplating making a move for Cherki, who has been impressive in France. The young player's performances have already caught the attention of Kylian Mbappe, the superstar from Paris Saint-Germain, who believes that Cherki is performing at a level far beyond his age. Following Rayan Cherki's remarkable performance of scoring two goals and providing two assists in a single game for Lyon at the tender age of 16, Kylian Mbappe took to Twitter with a message: “Don’t talk to him too much about age, huh.."  Cherki displayed impressive form throughout the last season, contributing five goals and six assists in various competitions for Lyon. As reported by But Football Club, the French club has set an asking price of £43 million for their gifted playmaker.

In My Blood It Runs

Ten-year-old Dujuan is a child-healer, a good hunter and speaks three languages. As he shares his wisdom of history and the complex world around him we see his spark and intelligence. Yet Dujuan is ‘failing’ in school and facing increasing scrutiny from welfare and the police. As he travels perilously close to incarceration, his family fight to give him a strong Arrernte education alongside his western education lest he becomes another statistic. We walk with him as he grapples with these pressures, shares his truths and somewhere in-between finds space to dream, imagine and hope for his future self.

[phonaesthemes]

When it comes to learning about his people's culture and history, Dujuan Hoosan is a star pupil.

A bright and confident 12-year-old boy of Arrernte and Garrwa descent, Dujuan is a skilled hunter, fluent in three languages and considered a healer by his people — a gift he inherited from his grandfather.

But in Australia's education system, he's been a struggling student who skips class, gets into trouble and fails his exams.

Now his story is at the centre of the documentary In My Blood It Runs, which explores how colonial school curriculums fail Indigenous children.
