P<\/span>ada 1989 terjadi perubahan radikal di kawasan Eropa Timur karena berkurangnya pengaruh Uni Soviet dan mulainya pengaruh liberalisasi pada otoritas di kawasan tersebut. ini ditandai dengan runtuhnya Tembok Berlin pada 9 November 1989, runtuhnya Tembok Berlin adalah puncak dari protes dan kerusuhan yang terjadi selama beberapa minggu, hingga akhirnya pihak Jerman Timur memberikan izin bagi warganya untuk melintas ke Berlin bagian barat. Diawali dengan revolusi di Polandia, lalu gelombang revolusi menyebar ke seluruh negara Eropa Timur hingga akhirnya Uni Soviet terpecah.<\/p>\n Keberadaan kelas pekerja memiliki sejarah panjang di Eropa Timur. Mereka menjadi aktor utama dalam pergerakan Revolusi Bolshevik dengan menurunkan kekuasaan Tsar yang sudah berkuasa berabad-abad. Sergei Eisenstein mengabadikan perjuangan heroik mereka pada filem October: Ten Days That Shook the World<\/i>. Pada poster-poster, dan filem-filem era Uni Soviet, kelas pekerja digambarkan begitu heroik, hingga dibuatkan monumen, Worker and Kolkhoz Woman<\/i>.<\/p>\n Workers Leaving the Lumi\u00e8re<\/i> Factory<\/i> yang dibuat oleh Louis Lumi\u00e8re tahun 1895, menampilkan buruh pria dan wanita yang berjalan dari pintu keluar pabrik dan keluar dari frame<\/i> filem, menuju ke kiri dan kanan hingga tertutup pintunya. Gambaran bersejarah itu menandai sebuah cabang seni baru. Gambaran tentang pekerja ini adalah gambar bergerak tertua yang ditayangkan di layar lebar untuk masyarakat banyak. Kelas pekerja dan filem sudah menjadi sahabat sejak awal dia dibuat. Dan ketiga filem yang akan dibahas, telah melanjutkan keakraban tersebut dalam sudut pandang, regional, dan masa yang berbeda.<\/p>\n Ketiga filem yang ditampilkan, Earth of the Blind <\/i>(1992), Factory <\/i>(2004), dan Artel<\/i> (2006) berada di masa yang sama, pasca-komunis yang dibuat setelah runtuhnya Uni Soviet, hanya saja rentang waktunya yang berbeda. Baik Factory<\/i> dan Artel<\/i> tidak memiliki selisih tahun pembuatan yang jauh, dan dibuat oleh sutradara yang sama. Dibandingkan kedua filem tersebut, Earth of the Blind<\/i> dibuat 2 tahun setelah Lithuania merdeka dari Uni Soviet.<\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text disable_pattern=”true” align=”left” margin_bottom=”0″]\n In<\/span> 1989, there was a radical change in Eastern Europe because of the diminishing influence of Soviet Union and the influence of liberalization just started amongst authorities in that region. It was punctuated with the collapse of Berlin Wall in November 9, 1989. That event was the peak of protests and riots which had occured for many weeks, thus the East German government finally gave permission to its citizens to cross to the west side of Berlin. The revolution in Poland was the starting point, then the revolution wave spread through all countries in Eastern Europe until the fall of Soviet Union.<\/span><\/p>\n Eastern Europe has a long history about the existence of the working class. They led the movement of the Bolshevik revolution bringing down the Tsar\u2019s power who had ruled for many centuries. Sergei Eisenstein perpetuated their heroic struggle in the film October: Ten Days That Shook the World<\/i>. In posters, and films made in Soviet era, the working class was depicted heroically. They were even enshrined as called monument called Worker and Kolkhoz Woman.<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n Louis Lumi\u00e8re made Workers Leaving the Lumi\u00e8re Factory in 1895. It showed male and female labors walking out of a factory gate and then turned to the left and right edge of the film frame until the gate was closed. That historical image marked the birth of a new art form. The image of the labors is the oldest moving picture shown on big screen for wide audience. Labors and cinema have become best friends since the medium of film was born. And three films in this curatorial, have maintained their intimacy with their own perspective, regional, and time frame.<\/span><\/p>\n The three films which will be discussed here are Earth of the Blind<\/i> (1992), Factory<\/i> (2004) and Artel<\/i> (2006). All were made in the same period\u2014Post-Communism<\/i>\u2014after the fall of Soviet Union, only from different time frames. The production year of Factory<\/i> and Artel<\/i> was not far apart. Both were made by a same director, while Earth of the Blind<\/i> was made just 2 years after Lithuania\u2019s independence from the Soviet Union.<\/span><\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][mk_divider style=”thin_solid” divider_width=”full_width” custom_width=”10″ align=”center” border_color=”#cccccc” thickness=”1″ margin_top=”20″ margin_bottom=”60″]\n[vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”2\/3″][mk_image src=”http:\/\/arkipel.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/earth-of-the-blind.jpg” image_width=”800″ image_height=”350″ crop=”true” svg=”false” lightbox=”false” frame_style=”simple” target=”_self” title=”Earth of The Blind <\/i><\/b>(Neregi\u0173 \u017eem\u0117)<\/i>” desc=”Audrius Stonys (Lithuania)” caption_location=”inside-image” align=”left” margin_bottom=”20″ animation=”bottom-to-top”][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/3″][vc_column_text disable_pattern=”false” align=”left” margin_bottom=”0″]\n <\/i>Country of Production:\u00a0 Lithuania –<\/p>\n supported by: <\/small> <\/i>the filmmaker<\/i><\/b><\/span><\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner]\n[mk_fancy_title tag_name=”h3″ style=”true” color=”#393836″ size=”14″ font_weight=”inherit” font_style=”inhert” txt_transform=”uppercase” letter_spacing=”0″ margin_top=”20″ margin_bottom=”20″ font_family=”none” align=”left”]Synopsis[\/mk_fancy_title]\n[vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text disable_pattern=”false” align=”left” margin_bottom=”40″]Earth of the Blind<\/i> menggunakan sepia tone color <\/i>dengan kontras warna yang rendah, hingga hampir menyerupai filem hitam-putih.
