Conference Timetable at a Glance

Tuesday 2 September 2008

Tuesday 5 September - 18.30-20.00

Plenary Session: Becoming French

Mieke Bal, University of Amsterdam

Including Film screening of Mieke’s latest film:

Becoming Vera

Between 3 and 4, Vera traverses many landscapes, exploring where she comes from, to come into her own. In Cameroon, she is initiated as nji mongu, the oldest daughter of the prince of the kingdom of Bamun. In Russia, she visits the estates of her mother’s ancestors.

For Vera these landscapes fit her fantasy world. She dances, sings, and runs; she sits still for hours and she looks at paintings and sculptures in the stately Russian homes.

What do these places look like to Vera? What does she see, think, or imagine? We cannot have access to her mind, but follow her gaze with empathy. Her parents explain their own intercultural situation and the potential implications for Vera.
