L'équipe ASIEs a le plaisir de vous inviter à une projection documentaire en présence du réalisateurSummary of Crimes, un film de Xu XingDate : mardi 31 mai 2016 (17h-20h) Lieu : Inalco, 65 rue des Grands Moulins 75013 Paris, Amphi 3&#160;&#160;Much of what we know about China’s Cultural Revolution (1966-1976) concerns the experience of officials and intellectuals.  Our understanding of these “ten years of turmoil,” which erupted almost fifty years ago, is therefore urban, with a focus on the China’s political and cultural elites.In his new film “Summary of Crimes,” director Xu Xing tackles the question of what happened in the countryside and at the grassroots, in interviews with a group of peasants convicted as counterrevolutionaries during the Cultural Revolution.  For many years these peasants had no way of articulating their past sufferings, nor did society at large have any way of accessing the way the Cultural Revolution marked their life courses.Les mots du réalisateur En 2011, j'ai trouvé par hasard, postés sur un blog, des formulaires d'enregistrement de prisonniers.Ils avaient été condamné pendant la Révolution Culturelle comme " contre-révolutionnaires".  La plupart de ces "criminels" étaient des paysans. Ils venaient de différentes régions de la province du Zhejiang, et avaient tous purgé leur peine dans le camp de travail agricole de Shilifeng, près de la ville de Quzhou. En lisant ces tristes formulaires, j'ai tout de suite eu envie de partir à leur rencontre. S'il y a une classe sociale qui est rarement évoquée dans les recherches sur la Révolution Culturelle, c'est bien celle des paysans. Je voulais savoir ce qu'ils avaient vécu dans ce camp, et ce qu'ils étaient devenus. Alors, armé des photocopies de ces papiers jaunis, j'ai commencé mon voyage au Zhejiang.&#160;Xu Xing1956 : Born in Beijing, China 1985 – 1989 : First Chinese fiction Variations Without a Theme published 1986 : Won short story prize at Beijing University Arts Festival Five Stories translated and published in Japanese 1990 : Won Writer’s Association of Sweden (PEN International) Tucholsky Prize for Foreign Literature at a conference in Stockholm Participated in the establishment of the influential literary magazine Jintian (Today) Lecturer in Asian Art History at Heidelberg University 1991–1992 : Special Achievement Award, including a residency at the Heinrich Boell-Haus Langenborch near Koeln First French translation of novel Le Crabe a lunettes, published by Julliard 1993 : Lived in Heidelberg, Germany Attended a conference on exile literature in Heidelberg 1994 : Noted in the Observateur 30th 240 ecrivains une Journee du monde (Observer Magazine, one of the 240 Writers of the World) in 1994 France 1995 : Italian translation of novel, Quel Che Resta E’Tuo published by Edizioni Theoria 1998 : First English translation of novel Variations Without a Theme: And Other Stories by Xu Xing published by Wild Peony Ltd 2002 : Directed independent documentary film Faces on the Cave Wall French translation of novel Et tout ce qui reste est pour toi published by Editions de l’Olivier Awarded the order of 'Chevalier des Arts et des Lettres' by the French Ministry of Culture 2004 : Hosted the 'Xu Xing Studio' at the Chinese School of Frankfurt University, Germany Third edition of Variations Sans Theme published by Editions de l’Olivier 2004 : German translation of novel Und alles,was bleibt ist fur dich is published, with Italian E quel che resta e per te and Spanish versions appearing in the same year 2005–2007 : Directed the documentary film A Chronicle of My Cultural Revolution with France TV5 2008 : Received the Feuchtwanger Fellowship for Villa Aurora, Los Angeles.
