FRONTLINE CLUB GEORGIA

Place to meet, discuss and be inspired

62 Lado Asatiani str, Tbilisi, Georgia. Tel: +995 32 2995952 | frontlinegeorgiaclub@gmail.com

Frontline Georgia is a media club that aims to serve as a politically-neutral venue for journalists, public officials, students, intellectuals come together in a dialogue over media, social, political and cultural issues important for Georgia and the region. Frontline Georgia holds panel discussions, screenings, exhibitions, conferences and master classes.

Frontline Georgia’s mission is to contribute to quality journalism and exchange of views. Its Events Program will bring together the key players and thinkers in politics and the media and give a member an opportunity not only to hear from experts but to ask questions and contribute to the discussion in a relaxed and informal atmosphere.

While there are other meeting places for important public discussions, Frontline Georgia is among the very few, where people from different ideological and political camps meet together. This neutrality has been one of the biggest achievements of the club, which operates in Georgia’s highly politicized and polarized social and media environment.

ALL EVENTS ARE OPEN TO THE PUBLIC

platform for Georgian photographers

(georgianphotographers.com) Launched on July 11, 2012, georgianphotographers.com was created with the intent of providing a digital platform for Georgian photographers.

georgianphotographers.com is an evolving digital space that will change and grow over time, with additional content and collaboration with established photographers.

The website will initially establish itself as a platform to promote Georgian Photography, and within a few month it will become an agency for Georgian photographers.

As the digital web continues to expand at an accelerating rate, our primary weapon against this digital cacophony at Georgianphotographers.com is quality. Our aim is to bring powerful imagery and, upon request, creating wider context by accompanying our photos with text.

Our photographers are based in Georgia and around the world. They have experience of shooting in different countries and in a multitude of environments.

Each photographer brings with them their own style, specialism and interest. Their images have been featured in various local and international publications such as Wall Street Journal, Sunday Telegraph, Reuters, Prospect Magazine, The Washington Post, The New York Times Lens Blog, Bloomberg News, Icon Magazine (UK), The Financial Times Deutchland, Politiken (Denmark), The National (UAE), National Geographic, ABC News, NYdailynews, Boston.com, Tskheli Shokoladi Magazine, Liberali Magazine, Mother Jones, Sunday Times, New York Times, Saveur, The Economist, Forbes, Bolshoi Gorod, Vision, B&W etc.

DOCUMENTARY: LIKE THE AIR TO BREATHE

Lohnenswert: Dokumentarfilm von Ruth Olshan

WIE LUFT ZUM ATMEN ist eine Reise in ein kleines Land zwischen Asien und Europa, das zu unrecht zwischen den Grenzen der Kulturen vergessen wird: Georgien, das hier in seiner ganzen Schönheit, seinem Zauber und seiner Vielfältigkeit eingefangen ist.

Der Dokumentarfilm von Ruth Olshan entdeckt vor allem die beeindruckende Musik Georgiens, in der die kulturelle Identität seiner Bewohner tief verwurzelt ist.

In den fast verloren gegangenen und wieder entdeckten Gesängen und Tänzen, die die UNESCO auf die Liste des Weltkulturerbes gesetzt hat, meint man Stimmen und Lieder aus einer vergangenen Zeit zu hören. Musik sei für sie so wichtig wie die Luft zum Atmen, erzählt eine Protagonistin im Film und man versteht sie sofort.

Ruth Olshans vielschichtiges Porträt eines Landes, seiner Menschen und ihrer Musik zeigt, was das Besondere an der georgischen Musik ist: die Lebendigkeit der Folklore im Alltag, die aufrecht erhaltene Tradition, die in den Texten gespeicherten Mythen, das soziale Erleben der Musik, die regionale Unterschiedlichkeit der Kultur, und die Musiker, die die Musik heute auch in Pop- und Jazzbereiche weiterführen.

"Großartige Bilder, sympathische Protagonisten und schöne, unvertraute Musik!" (filmdienst) "Ruth Olshan hat einen sehr feinen Musikfilm gemacht, der einen Ort 90 Minuten zum Klingen bringt" (zitty) "Eine berückende Hommage an ein Volk, dessen große Kultur durchströmt wird von Gesang" (Rheinischer Merkur) "Folklore kann ganz schön cool sein!" (Die Welt) "Ein ‚Hit’ für musikbegeisterte Weltreisende im Kino!" (programmkino.de)

Ruth Olshan in her film portrays musicians who work with different approaches: a male choir searching and cultivating old folk songs in the Caucasus region, a female choir, a school dance company and musicians who enhance Georgian folk music. There is a common denominator that links the diverse protagonists in Olshan’s film: Singing, dancing and music are crucial elements of their lifestyle. Music is as important as “air to breath,” explains the director of the female choir . The subtle camera work discreetly catches moments and spontaneous encounters, showing that the rehearsals and the singing brings moments to these women where they are taken away from their normal course of life. For life in Rustavi, a small town near Tiflis, seems bleak. The industry is dead, the unemployment rate is enormous. You ask yourself how people can live. The choir women’s beauty and positive energy exude an affirmative sign of life, even in mournful moments. Men and women sing and dance both joy and sorrow off their chest. In Georgia, music seems to be omnipresent, almost existential. Even if a young singer does not think folk music is “sexy”, he still gets hooked. It gets under his skin. The film pays tribute to this fascination, vitality, and spiritedness.
