Episode 25: Long-Term Films w/ Marion Biet

<p>Film academic Marion Biet came on the podcast to talk about long-term films (aka longitudinal films) with me since it&#39;s her expertise - making her one of the first to analyze this type of film within an academic framework. Long-term films are films that capture a long passage of time, the most prominent example of this is Michael Apted&#39;s Up Series which I refer to a lot during our conversation. We spoke about international long-term films, the ethical dimensions of these films, and their socio-political potential. </p><p><br></p><p>Show Notes:</p><p><a href="https://das-dokumentarische.blogs.ruhr-uni-bochum.de/kollegiat_innen/marion-biet/" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">Marion Biet’s Uni Website</a></p><p><a href=" https://vimeo.com/216389178?fl=ip&fe=ec" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">Marion&#39;s Film L&#39;usine, c&#39;est particulier quand même (2017)</a></p><p><a href="https://www.transcript-verlag.de/978-3-8376-6732-5/dokumentwerden/?number=978-3-8376-6732-5&c=310000019" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">Marion’s book Dokumentwerden</a></p><p><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Up_(film_series)" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">Up Film Series</a></p><p><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Children_of_Golzow" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">Children from Golzow (1961-2007)</a></p><p><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helena_T%C5%99e%C5%A1t%C3%ADkov%C3%A1" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">Helena Trestikova</a></p><p><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DEFA" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">DEFA</a></p><p><a href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1334606/?ref_=nm_flmg_job_1_accord_1_cdt_t_16" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">Rene (2008)</a></p><p><a href="https://elilewy.com/thebend/episode-27-tonyfromtheupseries" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">The Bend Episode – Tony (The Up Series)</a></p><p><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Up_(film_series)#Neil" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">Neil Hughes from The Up Series</a></p><p><a href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0334885/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0_tt_7_nm_1_in_0_q_up%20south%20africa" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">7 Up South Africa (1992)</a></p><p><a href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt2802966/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0_tt_8_nm_0_in_0_q_7up%20japan" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">7 Up Japan (1992)</a></p><p><a href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt4505410/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0_tt_4_nm_0_in_0_q_born%20in%20ussr" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">Born in the USSR (1991-)</a></p><p><a href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt4021134/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_2_tt_7_nm_0_in_0_q_7%20up%20new%20generation" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">21 Up New Generation (2014-)</a></p><p><a href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt4012180/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0_tt_8_nm_0_in_0_q_born%20to%20be%20different" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">Born To Be Different (2003-)</a></p><p><a href="https://dafilms.com/film/12877-daldongne-33-up" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">Daldongne 33 Up (2020)</a></p><p><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Before_trilogy" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">Before Trilogy (1995-2013)</a></p><p><a href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1065073/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0_tt_8_nm_0_in_0_q_boyhood" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">Boyhood (2014)</a></p><p><a href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt4769042/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0_tt_8_nm_0_in_0_q_%C3%BCber%20die%20jahre" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">Over the Years (2015)</a></p><p><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Apted" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">Michael Apted</a></p><p><a href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1533061/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0_tt_3_nm_5_in_0_q_katka" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">Katka (2010)</a></p><p><a href="https://dafilms.com/" target="_blank" rel="ugc noope
