The spirit in which Rocha experienced the seismic events of 1968 is best embodied in a work that even today remains one of his least known (and least viewed) films: Cancer. This paper will seek to place Cancer in the context of Brazilian politics and culture in the 1960s, as well as integrating this critically neglected film into Rocha\u2019s broader corpus of cinematic works and critical\/theoretical writings.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Daniel Fairfax<\/strong> is an assistant professor in film studies at Goethe-Universit\u00e4t Frankfurt. His study of the transformation of Cahiers du cinema and film theory in the wake of 1968 will be published in 2019.<\/p>\n<p>Closing keynote<br \/>\n<strong>Robert Stam<\/strong> (New York)<br \/>\nAnthropophagy, the Carib Revolution, and Popular Culture: the Transnational Gaze on the Radical \u201cIndian\u201d<\/p>\n<p>This lecture\/video presentation will focus on the circulation around the \u201cRed Atlantic\u201d of the image of the misnamed \u201cIndian\u201d as \u201cexemplar of freedom,\u201d both in popular media culture (film, music, the internet) and in social thought. It will highlight interconnections between radically indigenizing social discourses in the U.S., France, and Brazil, especially emphasizing the 500 year Franco-Brazilian-indigenous dialogue which traces back to the 16th century French colony in Brazil. The focus will be on moments, in social philosophy and in popular culture, where indigenous critique and western awareness of the egalitarian communal freedom of some native societies catalyzed expanded notions of freedom and equality and the radical interrogation of social norms.<\/p>\n<p>Robert Stam is university professor at New York University and author of some seventeen books on film, the media, and ultural studies, including Tropical Multiculturalism: A Comparative History of Race in Brazilian Cinema and Culture (1997).<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em>Presented by:<\/em><br \/>\nThe conference is part of the series \u201cTropical Underground\u201d and is organized by the Cluster of Excellence \u201cNormative Orders\u201d with the Department of Theatre, Cinema and Media Studies at Goethe-Universit\u00e4t Frankfurt.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Panel 4: &#8220;Revolutionary and Other Screens&#8221; at the International Conference &#8220;The other 68: Anthropophagic Revolutions in Brazilian Counterculture after 1968&#8221; at Museum Angewandte Kunst in Frankfurt am Main, 23-25 May [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","template":"","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"aiovg_categories":[],"aiovg_tags":[],"class_list":["post-8567","aiovg_videos","type-aiovg_videos","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/normativeorders.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/aiovg_videos\/8567"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/normativeorders.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/aiovg_videos"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/normativeorders.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/aiovg_videos"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/normativeorders.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/normativeorders.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=8567"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/normativeorders.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=8567"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"aiovg_categories","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/normativeorders.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/aiovg_categories?post=8567"},{"taxonomy":"aiovg_tags","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/normativeorders.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/aiovg_tags?post=8567"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
