2. An accented cinema: exilic and diasporic filmmaking
- www.latrobe.edu.au
- An accented cinema: exilic and diasporic filmmaking. ...
- Hamid Naficy's imposing new work, An accented cinema, sets itself two related and equally ambitious tasks. ... Through a mix of general discussions of the style, themes, and modes of production of these films and concise "close-up" sections focusing on particular films and filmmakers, Naficy's book pieces together a detailed taxonomy of the "accented cinema. " The book engages with the intricate cultural politics of diasporic, exilic and postcolonial filmmaking while maintaining a concern throughout for how experiences of mobility - some voluntary, some forced - impact upon film aesthetics to produce what Naficy calls the "accented style. ...
- Noting that existing scholarship on postcolonial cinema has tended to approach exile and diaspora as themes within films rather than as factors shaping film style (20), Naficy argues that "the accented style helps us to discover commonalities among exilic filmmakers that cut across gender, race, nationality and ethnicity, as well as across boundaries of national cinemas, genres and authorship" (39). Elsewhere, Naficy compares the accented style to Raymond Williams' notion of a structure of feeling, insofar as it encodes responses to a particular, material social experience (26). In effect, Naficy's accented style represents a wholly new framework for conceptualising cinema and classifying films. ... With its close attention to how cultural location and geo-cultural mobility affect film style, An accented cinema re-inflects the conceptual basis of film analysis, and enables a fundamental re-visioning of the meaning and function of cinema itself in the contemporary world.
- Naficy defines his use of the term "accented":.
- If the dominant cinema is considered universal and without accent, the films that diasporic and exilic subjects make are accented. ... ] [T]he accent emanates not so much from the accented speech of the diegetic characters as from the displacement of the filmmakers and their artisanal production modes. ...
- But as this excerpt suggests, by drawing attention to the stylistic "accent" perceptible in films by this group of filmmakers, Naficy - in this regard like the films themselves - effects a critique of the putatively "accent-less" dominant cinema, so sure of its own ground that it routinely elides the questions of place and displacement that haunt and define the accented cinema. In its political engagement and implicit and explicit social critique, Naficy's conceptualisation of accented cinema enters into a timely dialogue with the notion of Third Cinema, written about by Teshome H. ...
- As he notes at the outset, Naficy's approach to the accented style departs from current trends in film scholarship and cultural criticism in at least two ways. ...
- A major aim of this book is to detail the formal commonalities that identify films as examples of the accented style. Stylistic tendencies that Naficy finds occurring commonly across the extremely wide range of films he surveys (these tendencies are summarized usefully in a 4-page appendix) include "accented" uses of voice, sound and language (from the use of voiceovers with literally accented pronunciation and the prevalence of non-synchronous sound, to the appearance of written text in the film's frame and the preponderance of epistolary narratives); the textual presence of the lost homeland as master referent; the visual representation of a traumatically split relationship to the body (recalling, perhaps, Frantz Fanon's theorisation of the traumatic "epidermalization" of racism) leading to a what Naficy calls a "tactile optics" (28-30); emphasis on border subjectivities and hybrid identities; and the autobiographical inscription of the filmmaker within the film's text.

- Inspired by Naficy’s work, this conference will extend his understanding of accented cinema to other media: how do, among others, literature, music, film and new media bear marks of transnationality and migration? What does it mean to ‘speak’ with an accent? How does it relate to the official, ‘neutral’ accent (be it in language, art, literary traditions, the media or in certain societies)? How does the accent relate to both home and ‘host’ country? What histories and politics are implied by an accent? How is the double articulation of (non)belonging to two or more different cultures translated in an accented artistic style? Whose voices are heard and to whom are they addressed? What are the themes, feelings, memories and places that are embodied in accented cultural expressions?.
