Rouzbeh Rashidi iz prethodnog posta osnivač je međunarodne družbe Experimental Film Society. Evo rezultata njihove ankete u kojoj su članovi i suradnici birali svojih 12 najdražih "eksperimentalnih" režisera.
(Rahidi, Dean Kavanagh i Maximilian Le Cain imaju i bend Cinema Cyanide.)
Experimental Film Society (EFS) is an independent, not-for-profit
entity specialising in experimental, independent and no/low budget
filmmaking. It was founded by Rouzbeh Rashidi
in 2000 in Tehran, Iran. Its aim is to produce and promote films by its
members. Experimental Film Society unites works by a dozen filmmakers,
scattered across the globe, whose films are distinguished by an
uncompromising, no-budget devotion to personal, experimental cinema. It
is currently based in Dublin, Ireland.
EFS’s current membership consists of:
Mohammad Nick Dell (Iran / Australia), Bahar Samadi (Iran / France), Jann Clavadetscher (Switzerland), Pouya Ahmadi (Iran / USA), Kamyar Kordestani (Iran), Michael Higgins (Ireland), Hamid Shams Javi (Iran), Dean Kavanagh (Ireland), Esperanza Collado (Spain), Jason Marsh (UK).
For more details on the aims, ideas and achievements of ESF, have a look at this text by Rashidi.

12 Favourite Filmmakers
I asked members of EFS, some of its friends, associates, critics,
programmers, and filmmakers to send in lists of their twelve favourite
filmmakers for publication on the EFS website. The criteria were simple:
to list the filmmakers who had the most impact on your life and art.
Contributors all found the task hard, even almost impossible, but in the
end they all submitted a list of more or less twelve names. I
personally am a huge fan of such lists and make them all the time. They
are fun, revealing and, I believe, something we're all curious about.
Obviously, they are subject to change as we grow and develop, and the
love/hate relationship we inevitably have with them (so much has to be
left out!) is amusing and challenging. I was very surprised with the
results and hope you enjoy reading them.

"The List Is Assembled In the Order of Incoming"
Experimental Film Society Members
The only possible way to approach making a list of a dozen favourite
directors, with so many dozens equally deserving to be on the same list,
is to narrow it down to the ones that inspire me most at this point in
my life, the live sources of energy. A sort of self-portrait through
cinema. Didn’t quite make it to 12, but 13 isn’t too bad considering.

- Carmelo Bene
- Marguerite Duras

Three brief notes:
Silent cinema is here also, always important to me and increasingly so,
breathing through the work of at least half of these filmmakers, those
who carry its trace forward.
I have made the decision not to include films by such collaborators and
comrades as Esperanza Collado, Rouzbeh Rashidi, Dean Kavanagh and
Michael Higgins. The feverish immediacy of the inspiration I get from
seeing their splendid works appear is of a different order to that which
the more distant figures on the list provide. However, I will mention
that Rouzbeh’sHSP: There Is No Escape From The Terrors Of The Mind is a
cinematic talisman for me, a film that expresses a vision of cinema than
I share in a way that is far more powerful and eloquent than anything I
have ever been able to achieve.
And, although it is a work of commingled authorship, mention must also
be made of the cut-up film Ghosts at Number 9, which is a crucial point
of reference for me these days.

heart and stomach: John Waters, Kitano Takeshi, Orson Welles, Pedro
Almodóvar, Kira Muratova. - For me they all have in common that they are
able to create a special "look", a certain "baroque" feeling in
pictures, emotions and not necessarily when it comes to story-telling.

Note: The list is in alphabetical order and compiled on the basis of
"directors whose work I always feel ready to watch." I also felt it
necessary to consider totality of achievement; however, in doing so, I
was compelled to omit from a list limited to twelve the directors
responsible for many of my most beloved individual films: Fellini's TOBY
DAMMIT, Leone's ONCE UPON A TIME IN THE WEST, Antonioni's L'ECLISSE,
Godard's CONTEMPT, Zulawski's THE IMPORTANT THING IS TO LOVE, Powell
& Pressburger's I KNOW WHERE I'M GOING!, Sturges' UNFAITHFULLY
YOURS, Marker's LA JETÉE, etc. - TL

Naturally, this sort of list can never be definite, changes all the
times according to what you are doing/experiencing in your life--and in
my case, according to the movies i am making.
And in fact, one often notices afterwards the influences and
inspirations he/she was bearing unconsciously, quite often during the
editing; watching the materials and suddenly you realize some moments or
some concepts reflects a film that one saw 20 years ago, often never
quite understood, but somehow marked in the brain.
The titles indicate the films that i have to be particularly conscience
of the influences right now. not necessary the films i like to watch
now, but those that are stuck in my mind, either consciously or
unconsciously.

Indulging the distinction between "favorite" and "best"—which, for me,
revolves around the subjective pleasures of cinephilia—I turn the
spotlight of world cinema away from Europe onto Latin America.

(Der Leone Have Sept Cabeças (1970) By Glauber Rocha)
If I had to save only one movie in the world, it would be “Man with a
movie camera” by Dziga Vertov. If I had to choose only one director, it
would be Andrei Tarkovsky. I live and make cinema with these 12
directors mainly. After all we never are alone, when we make or live,
cinema. Even so the list of those, that give me day be day a fresh
breath is much bigger ...
So...
1. Andrei Tarkosky, because without faith in this world or another is impossible to live and create.
2. Dziga Vertov, because it is essential to enter the matter.
3. Stan Brakhage, because it is imperative reach the cosmos.
4. Werner Herzog, because it is necessary be passionate and obsessive to
live and make cinema. Or as Herzog says: "Be bold, ignore the fear and
be prepared for the unexpected."
5. Glauber Rocha, because our biggest creative power is our hunger and precariousness.
6. Artavazd Peleshyan, because learning to "think-cinema" is learning
how to edit / to make "montage". And … Dreyer, Bresson, Ozu, Bela Tarr,
Sokurov, Kiarostami …

This is a first-to-pop-into-my-head list, and should not be considered
definitive. All are certainly favorites, though. At any given moment,
there are perhaps another 50 or so filmmakers who could have been
chosen. The only constant would likely be Ford.
