[Frameworks] Ethnographic films / studies of The Other

Whenever I see an ethnographic travelogue or some study of "the other" by a white male at a screening, there's always a collective eye roll of "great, another white male putting minorities on the screen." I know the trope, but I don't actually know any of those specific cliche films. What are som

You seem to contradict yourself: you say 'whenever I see' etc, but then ask 'what are some (of these films)'? If you know you've seen some, how come you can't identify them? Nicky. -Original Message- From: Chris Freeman To: frameworks@jonasmekasfilms.com Sent: Fri, 1 May 2015

I've seen them by independent filmmakers at micro cinema screenings. I mean what are the big ones that have come over the last 100 years of cinema that have made it a trope? I only know Nanook of the North. On Friday, May 1, 2015, wrote: > You seem to contradict yourself: you say 'whenever I

Jean Rouch and Robert Garnder come to mind. Both were prolific ethnographic filmmakers, but for Rouch I’d recommend Chronicle of a Summer (1960), The Mad Masters (1955), and Jaguar (1967), and for Garnder Dead Birds (1964). Chronicle is especially interesting because Rouch turns the “other-izing

Re: [Frameworks] Ethnographic films / studies of The Other

Nanook of the North is far from the cliche of a white man adventurer making an anthropological film in a faraway place. Although it's been disparaged that way at times, notably by Fatimah Tobing Rony, the film and Flaherty have also been vigorously defended as a primary example of "shared anthropol

There's also many more considerations in this question as we have found out over the years. As Andy points out, the Martin and Osa Johnson theatrical films have some fairly racist elements to them. We released SIMBA as the most inoffensive (and their most famous) film and worked with experts of th
