Filmvisning og Q&A: WHEN YOU GO BACK TELL THEM: Voices of Melanesian Women
En antropolog (André Iteanu) og datteren hans (Lola Iteanu) besøker landsbyen der han har jobbet i flere tiår, for å dokumentere livet til Orokaiva-kvinnene. Filmen gjenspeiler det nære forholdet mellom kvinnene og de besøkende, men gjennom kamera henvender kvinnene seg også til et fjernt publikum – i håp om å skape en relasjon av gjensidig forståelse.

Antrofilm: antropologisk film på museet
Universitetsmuseet i Bergen presenterer antropologisk filmvisning på museet. I samarbeid med Institutt for sosialantropologi, Nordic Anthropological Film Association og Journal of Anthropological Films, inviterer vi filmelskere, filmskapere, antropologer og andre for å se antropologisk orienterte filmer, for å diskutere menneskelig kultur, estetikk, politikk og praksis for representasjon, og utvide blikket.
NAFA har siden grunnleggelsen på begynnelsen av 1970-tallet promotert etnografisk film gjennom den årlige NAFA-filmfestivalen, NAFAs filmarkiv og online filmsamling av antropologiske filmer. NAFA-arkivet forvaltes av Universitetsmuseet i Bergen.

Antrofilm: anthropological film at the museum
The University Museum of Bergen presents anthropological film screenings at the museum. In collaboration with the Department of Social Anthropology, Nordic Anthropological Film Association and Journal of Anthropological Films, we bring together film lovers, film makers, anthropologists and others to watch anthropological orientated films, to discuss human culture, aesthetics, the politics and practices of representation, and to expand our visions.
NAFA has since its founding in the early 1970s, promoted ethnographic film through the annual NAFA film festival and its collection and online database of anthropological films. The NAFA archive is hosted by The University Museum of Bergen.
Abstract - WHEN YOU GO BACK TELL THEM: Voices of Melanesian Women
An anthropologist and his daughter document the activities of Orokaiva women. Beyond the intimate relation they have with their visitors, the women's words address a distant audience in hopes of creating a relationship of mutual understanding.
A film by André Iteanu and Lola Iteanu
André Iteanu École Pratique des Hautes Études
An anthropologist (André Iteanu) and his daughter (Lola Iteanu) visits the village where he has been working for several decades. As André was previously adopted by a family, the women of this village consider Lola to also be their daughter. They requested that she report what Melanesian women do, what they say and believe – to people in her own country. This presents a unique opportunity for insight into a way of life that is at once very close and very distant from our own.
