  • Turn Me On, Goddammit: Interview with Helene Bergsholm
    Liza Béar
    4:26
    From YouTube:
    “In her very first acting role, Norwegian high schooler Helene Bergsholm stars as Alma in Jannicke Systad Jacobsen's Turn Me On, Goddammit, a frank and fetching coming-of-age story in which reality blends seamlessly with sexual fantasies. The film, which had its world premiere at the 2011 Tribeca Film Festival, explores the dynamics and pitfalls of teen sexuality in a hilarious, pitch-perfect script that never lapses in taste. When Alma recounts a gauche pass made by a boy she likes at a party, she must contend with denial and ridicule.
    Interview filmed by Liza Béar on April 28th 2011 at the Tribeca Film Festival.

  • Grey Matter: Interview Kivu Ruhorahoza (Part Two)
    Liza Béar
    2011, 5:03
    From YouTube: “In this segment Ruhorahoza discusses the origins of Grey Matter (Matiere Grise) and how—still haunted by the 1994 atrocities—the story elements came together in the aftermath of genocide fifteen years later. ‘It’s the story of two siblings losing their parents,‘ he says, ’and of a militia man who was involved in the massacre of those parents.' The script, which Ruhorahoza wrote in French, also contains a film-within-a-film, The Cycle of the Cockroach, which the young Rwandan Balthazar is attempting to make. Part II was filmed by Liza Béar on April 28th during the Tribeca Film Festival 2011 in which Grey Matter had its world premiere. It won the Best Actor Award for Shami Biziman as Yvan, the traumatized Rwandan brother, and a Special Jury Mention in the Best New Narrative Director category.

    Liza Béar
    2011, 6:01
    From YouTube: “Grey Matter, the first feature film made by a Rwandan living in Rwanda, is a film-within-a-film about a filmmaker, Balthazar, trying to make a film, The Cycle of the Cockroach, about brother-sister characters coping with the trauma of the Rwandan genocide. It's a haunting, skillful blend of metaphor, reality, hallucination and nightmare. The film, written and directed by twenty-eight-year-old Kivu Ruhorahoza, won a Special Jury Mention in the Best New Narrative Director category and a Best Actor award for Shami Bizimana as Yvan, the mad brother.
