00:00Με μια διαφορετική ιδιότητα βρέθηκε αυτή τη φορά η Ζιλιέτ Μπινός στη Θεσσαλονίκη.
00:05Η μεγάλη στάρ του παγκόσμιου κινηματογράφου παρουσίασε στο 28ο Φεστιβάλ Ντοκιμαντέρ
00:09την πρώτη της σκηνοθετική δουλειά, In Eye In Motion.
00:13Η ταινία παρακολουθεί τη συνεργασία της με τον διάσημο Βρετανό χορευτή και χορογράφο Αγραμ Καν.
00:17Το 2007, οι δύο καλλιτέχνες αποφάσισαν να συνεργαστούν για να ανεβάσουν έναν χρόνο αργότερα την παράσταση In Eye.
00:24Ήταν ένα τολμηρό εγχείρημα γιατί εκείνη δεν είχε χορέψει ξανά επί σκηνής και εκείνος δεν είχε ξανά παίξει.
00:30Το διερόν δοκιμαντέρ που έκανε παγκόσμια πρεμιέρα στο Σαν Σεμπαστιάν παρουσιάζει το πώς εργάστηκαν για να δημιουργήσουν το έργο
00:35και περιλαμβάνει εκτενή αποσπάσματα από την παράσταση που είχε ταξιδέψει τότε σε όλο τον κόσμο.
01:05Ήταν two financiers and said, do you have a project you'd like to do and I said, well, I have
01:11those tapes that I've found.
01:13I asked my sister, Marion Stanis, who's a director, to film the show, The Seven Last Shows, and then we
01:21said, okay, let's do it.
01:23And then I thought I'd like to do a documentary on the process of the work.
01:28So I had the actual show being filmed, and I wanted for people to experience what it feels like to
01:37create something new.
01:40Because Akram wanted to play, to act, and I wanted to dance, to move.
01:47So we taught each other art form, and we tried in six months to make a show.
01:54And so you see the process of all this.
01:58And the rushes are actually, my sister, Marion, who came to the rehearsal room to film us,
02:06because she was making her own film.
02:07So at the end of it all, I gathered her rushes, and some of the rushes that we used,
02:14you know, some of we used the work camera, and I mixed it and made it a film.
02:19So how this performance changed your life?
02:23Is this a highlight in your career?
02:25Because it's something different.
02:27And what you taught each other, you and Akram?
02:31What did we teach each other?
02:35Patience, love, tolerance, learning, you know, being a starter again.
02:45When you, you know, you're in your own art form, me acting and Akram dancing and being a choreographer,
02:55we really were, when we met, I was, you know, totally an actress.
03:01And so the fact of studying again, learning a new art form, it requires a lot of humility,
03:09because you see how difficult it is to learn something new.
03:13But then that was the challenge we wanted to live,
03:16is to be, to not know, and be as, put ourselves into an edge of the, of, of learning.
03:26So you have to open your ears, you have to open your eyes,
03:29you have to be patient with yourself,
03:32because I felt there were moments I was totally blurry,
03:34I couldn't remember the movements.
03:37I felt my body would move, my mind was moving, but not my body.
03:42So it takes a while for you to train that.
03:44So I had a wonderful trainer, you can see in the film, Suman,
03:48and, and we were like, you know, walking every day and running every day.
03:53And so your heart start to, to, to get into it.
03:57But then we wanted to really make this encounter of movement and emotion.
04:03That was really a challenge.
04:05And so it took a while to find for us a story where we could express emotions as well as
04:12movement.
04:12And so we, of course, we used the, the theme of love,
04:18because love has so many different layers and emotions.
04:23That, that was a good one to use.
04:25So you like experimenting with different art forms and different media.
04:30and why, and why you don't do easy things,
04:36why you try a lot to do different things in different art forms.
04:40Because life is full, is full of possibilities.
04:44And as an artist, I think you have to put yourself into, not difficulties, but into the new.
04:51Where, where is the new?
04:52Where do you want to take risks?
04:54Where do you want to explore?
04:55And I've always been interested in movement, because emotions is a movement.
05:01A thought is a movement.
05:03Everything is movement.
05:04Life is movement.
05:06Berkson, Henry Berkson, is only making, you know, books about movement.
05:11And I experience it all the time as an actress.
05:14I've always been fascinated.
05:17How, how do you relate the inside to the outside or the outside to the inside?
05:23It's always a movement that is fascinating for each of us.
05:27How can it be, you know, artistically, how can a movement be truthful?
05:31And not just willingful.
05:33And where's the difference?
05:35And so I think the film is, is, is exposing all those questions.
05:40And that are very human questions, but artistic questions.
05:45Because they're, we are all artists, but we ignore it sometimes.
05:49And so re-putting yourself as a new beginner, you know, as a starter, is, allows you to be
05:59innocent again, in a way, to be humble again, to be, to see, to be thankful every day that
06:09you did, you, you survived that day, you didn't die.
06:12And it's really what happened when I was playing, you know, doing this show, you know, every
06:17single night I thought I was going to die.
06:19Every single night I was grateful that I didn't die, you know, because it was very demanding.
06:26It's not about going into places where you're suffering, but it's about exploring something
06:31new.
06:31And you go through phases where it's difficult, but it's part of life.
06:36It's, if you want to achieve something, there's always some sort of demands, and the purpose
06:44is not to suffer, the purpose is to give.
06:47And that's why, you know, we're here as artists, we're supposed to give.
06:50And to one last question, talking about artists and what is happening around us today, we live
06:57in increasingly, in increasingly terrible times, with wars and genocides around us.
07:03So, what can artists do about all of that, and is there a time for doing something else,
07:11except art, actions?
07:12We're here as artists to celebrate life, and to love it, and to be united.
07:20And I think we are all different, where each of us, we have different points of view, different,
07:28you know, needs, but deep down, there's a unity we can find.
07:35And it's for us to make this journey, this road, and walking on the road of each of us,
07:41in each of us, in order to find out being humble again.
07:46I think that's what it is.
07:47There's a lot of egos going on, and, you know, we have to let go of a lot of values
07:58that we think were, you know, cannot change.
08:01It's not true.
08:02A lot of values can change, and will change, because nature will tell us to change, you
08:10know, but if we don't do it with our intelligence, and our wisdom, we will be told with a big
08:17finger, so we'd better change.
08:19And artists, I think it's a place where you can ask questions, explore questions, and it's
08:31about beauty.
08:32Deep down, it's about beauty.
