CAIRO – 17 November 2017: Director for the documentary ‘
,’ Marie Dumora, will be giving out a documentary master-class on Saturday, November 18, the final day of the 10th
.
During this class, Dumora will introduce students to the concept of “Ariadne Thread,” which is the common thread that links all of the documentary’s protagonists to a specific area. Dumora will focus on two main points during her class; first, the protagonist, and how a director can best focus on filming their daily life, where to start and end, and the best ways that a filmmaker can keep their distance while also remaining close enough to film.
The class’s second point will deal with geography, such as the creation of an appropriate mood and atmosphere, what tools can be used to best express the relationship between person and place, and how to introduce the areas.
Dumora is a French director, who has thus far filmed all her documentaries in the same region of Eastern France. In this way, the characters of her various films are all linked together by the same region, which allows for Dumora to represent the same place in a new way every time while linking back to her older works. She was won awards including the Intangible Heritage Award at the Cinéma du Réel festival.
