Oana Suteu Khintirian’s NFB-produced feature doc Beyond Paper will open on June 9 at the Hot Docs Ted Rogers Cinema in Toronto.

In this visually arresting film, the director journeys around the globe to better understand how she can preserve her own heritage, as well as our collective memory. Beyond Paper grapples with essential questions at a critical moment in the history of the written word, as humanity’s archives migrate to the cloud.

Director Oana Suteu Khintirian will be in Toronto for a Q&A on June 13.

The film had its world premiere on March 15 at the International Festival of Films on Art in Montreal and recently received the Cercle d’or Award for Best Documentary at the Festival cinéma du monde de Sherbrooke.

About the film

Beyond Paper (Au-delà du papier) by Oana Suteu Khintirian (130 min)
Producer: Nathalie Cloutier for the NFB’s Quebec, Canadian Francophonie & Acadian Documentary Studio
Press kit: mediaspace.nfb.ca/epk/beyond-paper

In the age of the virtual revolution, how can we grasp the impact of the ongoing abandonment of books on thought and learning? What’s the future of our individual and collective memories? In this personal quest with universal resonance, the filmmaker embarks on a journey to understand how to preserve her cultural history, both Armenian and Romanian, and share it with her son.
From the fragile grain of centuries-old manuscripts to blinking servers in digital libraries, the film takes us around the world and introduces us to “guides” such as Maria Sebregondi, president of the Moleskine Foundation, who speculates on the possibilities of “augmented paper;” Brewster Kahle, founder of the Internet Archive, who describes the massive web library as “fabulous and terrible;” Maria Kodama, widow of Jorge Luis Borges and president of the Borges Foundation, who brings to life the words of the Argentinian writer, breathing contemporary meaning into them.

Filmed in locations including a “city of libraries” in the midst of the Mauritanian desert and El Ateneo Grand Splendid in Buenos Aires (one of the most beautiful bookshops in the world), as well as in Bucharest, Montreal, San Francisco, Milan and Copenhagen, Beyond Paper blends reflection and emotion, reminding us that human knowledge is above all an affair of the soul and the spirit.
The film’s poster was created by renowned Montreal animation filmmaker Theodore Ushev.

N.B.
Filmul s “Beyond Paper” este programat la Hot Docs Ted Rogers Cinema din Toronto incepand cu 9 iunie.

Secventa din Romania este un popas la Biblioteca Centrala Universitara din Bucuresti (Fundatia Carol I) care a fost incendiata la revolutie si, nu fara mari eforturi, refacuta dupa planurile originale si computerizata. Sunt si o seama de interviuri prin care se incearca o lamurire (daca e posibila!) a cauzelor acelei barbarii. Si cum era 1 Decembrie este filmata si defilarea (care trece prin fata bibliotecii refacute), prilej de a face cunoscuta capitala tarii asa cum este acum.
