This talk discusses the sound-image relations in Philip Scheffner's 2007 film 'The Halfmoon Files,' which is built around an audio recording of 80 seconds at its core. The film draws into its fold the colonial and war discourses that preserved a trace of the subjectivity of an Indian prisoner-of-war placed in the crosshairs of the world's first sound archive, colonial photography and physiognomy, and the politics of British-German relations in World War I.
Four thought-provoking and entertaining films spanning the diverse realities, histories, and cultures of Asia. Each film will be followed by a moderated discussion.
