Obsah kurzu:

The central task of this class is to understand the fundamental values of European directors who created milestone films in the history of cinema. These works constitute what we can call a „narration of solitaries“ - meaning a very specific, unorthodox and sophisticated approach to a film, its language and theme. We will appreciate the kind of cinema which is not just entertainment but so called ?art??the art which is nearly forgotten and unfortunately, often difficult for the present spectator to understand. In decoding these works we will point to the transcendental qualities of such art.

The course will consist of screenings from the works of Godard, Antonioni, Bresson, Tarkovsky, ... I will then discuss the works based on an analysis of language, narration, theme, form, poetics, aesthetics etc of the representative films. I will also mention the personal approaches of these filmmakers to direction and art in general. I will not hide that my taste is subjective, and the subjective approach of the student will be welcomed as well.
