KFJ 2014
Kočevska filmska jesen
The thematic point of departure for year 2014 was Music and Resistance. There are at least two reasons for this. One is the consequence of the fact that in our town it is the music that is traditionally a very strong element of cultural identity, particularly contemporary rock music. There are more than 25 regular music bands connecting more than 200 people. They shape the common identity and contribute to critical thinking in our region through various collective projects.
Secondly, resistance as the thematic point of departure is probably the most important purport that we can directly or indirectly associate with music. At present, it seems that even more important for our local area – where rigid societal mechanisms, or those pervaded by particular interests that are well suited to peripheral remoteness, are noticeable – is the idea that this situation can be overcome, that it is possible to resist and that we have references for that idea. Film can present that idea in a unique and the most decisive way.
Tematsko izhodišče festivala v letu 2014 je bilo »Glasba in upor«. Vsaj dva razloga za to sta. Eden je posledica dejstva, da je prav glasba v naši sredini že tradicionalno močan del kulturne identitete. še posebej sodobna rock glasba. V mestu redno deluje vsaj 25 glasbenih skupin, ki združuje vsaj 200 ljudi v skupnih projektih in oblikovanju skupne identitete, pa tudi kritične misli.
Upor kot tematsko izhodišče pa je morda najpomembnejša vsebina, ki jo lahko neposredno, ali pa posredno povežemo z glasbo. A še bolj pomembna se nam zdi v tem trenutku za naše lokalno okolje, kjer so prisotni rigidni ali pa z partikularnimi interesi povezani mehanizmi delovanja družbe, ki jim periferna oddaljenost celo ustreza, ideja, da se da to preseči, da se je možno tem stvarem upreti in da imamo reference za to idejo. Film lahko to idejo predstavi na nezamenljiv in najbolj usoden način.
