content: Human Studies Film Archives

content: Archival materials

content: Experimental film described by Prelorán as "a free improvisation with a child of 5 who plays, has fun, gets mad, and ends up in frenetic activity, all enhanced with superimposed animation." The film has four versions, each with a different musical score.  Prelorán's intention was that all four versions would be viewed together in order to compare how the character of the child changes according to the music. The film was shot in Tucumán, Argentina, around 1965. The child is Claudia Niccolini, the daughter of a friend and colleague of Prelorán's. In 1966, Prelorán released his first version of the film, titled Claudia y Yo. He later re-edited and shortened the film and, over time, requested soundtracks from several composers. In 1972, he released four versions under the title Claudia; these are the four intended to be viewed together. The HSFA holds five versions of this title.

content: Edited film records Ed Young, a fife player and expert dancer who performs part of the "buck dance", a southern dance of solo male virtuosity engaged in by both black and white frontiersmen. Thus both the music and the dance displayed in this film can be most accurately referred to as "Afro-American" -- a new and creative development, by black artists resident in the United States, out of a combination of old world elements.

Edited film shot among the Mbuti of the Ituri forest, Belgian Congo (Zaire), and the Bandaka (Bantu) villagers with whom they maintain economic and ritual relations. Documentation focuses primarily on the phases of the Nkumbi village initiation of young Pygmy and village boys. Nkumbi--meaning "to share the blood"--reflects one aspect of a flexible relationship between Mbuti and Bantu villagers whereby Pygmy bands experience periodic respite from the rigors of nomadic forest life. Film sequences detail the separation of boys in the Nkumbi camp, ritual flogging and hazing, and training in the keefa (raffia skirt) dances. Liminal status of the initiates is shown by their daily covering with white pemba clay, symbolic of their social death, and being led to the circumcision of initiates by a village "doctor." The burning of the Nkumbi camp is followed by the enclosure and rebirth of the initiates from a banana leaf "womb." During this phase the new public status of the initiates is recognized as they are danced through the Ndaka village of Epulu led by a ritual doctor in a leopard mask. Boys are shown being marked with the bengafi scars around chest and ribs which identify jural males who have "shared the blood." The final reincorporation of the initiates is marked as boys are washed in the river, covered with palm oil (a village symbol of wealth), and led in procession to the center of the village where they dance on stools to symbolize their adult and sexually active status.
