The Scholarship Jury
La femis Summer University Presentation

20th March, 2007

Sub : Application for La femis summer university

Sir/Madam

The cinema, said Andre Bazin is the substitute of our gaze, a word more in harmony with our desire, and France is where cinema was born, even when Louis Lumiere said, Cinema is an invention with no future, Cinema has continued to evolve and redefine meaning.
Even though as Godard famously said, Cinema can’t change the world, but has continued his search for the medium. As Cinema in itself represents an enigma and France has the harbinger of force.

I have grown up on healthy diet of Hollywood, Bollywood and Bengali Cinema, but its my brush with French Masters that changed the way I look and view the world- from the image of Jean Pierre Leaud honoring Balzac, to Jean Paul Belmondo imitating Bogart, and Jean Pierre Melville quoting his ambition to Jean Serbeg in Breathless to be Immortal and to die, I realized the importance of Cinema as a vehicle of self-expression and art form. Whether it’s the citation or quotation Godard makes from litreature and art, to Charbol and Truffaut immense love for Hitchcock, French Cinema and French culture general has had an immense influence on my upbringing. It’s here I realized the importance of form over content, as Proust is never interested in storytelling similarly as Godard is never good at telling his stories straight.

As Jacques Rivetter says, it’s good be influenced and one should be influenced by the directors he/she admires, and as Godard says, it’s does matter where you get influenced from what matter is where you take them to. It reminds me of an anecdote what was told to Jean Renoir from his famous father, that to be in love with something, should be like an urge to pee badly, and in order to make films as Jean Pierre Melville said: One must have a huge cinematic baggage, and for me the baggage and urge lies there, in heart and streets of Paris.

With La femis Summer University Presentation it gives me an opportunity to fulfill some of my appetite for French culture, French film and French lifestyle. It will give me a chance to be physically present in the land of Godard and Trauffaut for a workshop on films.

As a cinephile getting this scholarship and being a part of this program will be “a dream come true” for me.


Thank you

In un mondo che non ci vuole
Il Mio Canto Libero più il mio
canto libero sei tu l'immensità si apre intorno a noi
al di là del limite degli occhi tuoi.

My teacher told me 'piano class' is not an object in this sentence. Can someone explain to me why? Doesn't 'piano class' answer the question what does Maria go to every week, therefore making it the object of the sentence?

I am looking for as many different spellings as I can for the above name. I have yet to find a french surname from that time period that starts with a 'q'. So it must have been spelled differently.

Phonetically: Kwa-bow

Even better if you find a family/surname online somewhere from that time and give me a link/s - you will definately get Best Answer and a big heartfelt thank you. : )

My Dad and I are thinking about getting identical tattoos this summer and were thinking of the Scotish Gaelic words for Dad/Father and Daughter. Can anyone out there help me?

Yo vivo en una casa pequena de dos piso cerca de un parque. Hay cuatro cuartos en mi casa, y tambien tiene dos cocinas, una ariba y otra a bajo. Yo prefero vivir en una casa en la Florida, porque a mi me gusta el mar. De mi ventana yo veo muchos pinos verdes, y la sona de mi casa es muy tranquila. En este momento mi casa tiene poco muebles porque mi mama esta pintando los cuartos, y vamos a compra muebles nuevos.

Algunas veces me siento en el sofa y estudio, hago la tarea, o miro la television con mi mama, y hermana. Mi dormitorio es pequeno, perro tengo una cama grande, y a veces mi hermana viene a mi cama a mira la television. Mi vecino y yo jugamos tennis los Domingos despues de misa. . Mi mama, mi hermana y yo, nos gustan pasar el tiempo en el pateo de mi casa porque tenemos una pisina, y muchos arboles

Please be sure, because I may get this tattooed or something. I am open to changing it up a little bit to be more exact. And if it matters, heart here doesnt mean to me like the actual organ but the essence of the soul, if that makes sense. Its a more abstract definition of heart. like when you say "he has heart". To me, this quote means to do everything with my whole heart and soul, to give it my all, and to do it with love, faith, and hope. I hope this helps get my meaning across. thanks for your help!
