Kinostudio’s film “Shqiperia e Re” should have been not only national pride, but also Albanian cultural wealth. In every country of the world where it is created and produced, the film itself is a propaganda of the state that makes it and even further, in a large percentage of it, it must present the artistic, cultural and historical values of that same country.
Thank you for reading this post, don't forget to subscribe!Thus, in its entirety, what was produced by the largest and only studio of our cinematography has cultural, educational and even historical values of our country and people. And there is no way it could be otherwise, except as a reflection of the time and the time period during which the Albanian film was made.
In our country, based on socialist realism, the film is divided into several genres according to the topics it deals with. Our films at Kinostudio are historical, about war, they are from the reconstruction of the country after the war. They are romance, drama, espionage, comedy, musical. Of course, there are also excessive ideologies in some of them, just as there are films based on real events.
More or less like in every country in the world, our cinematography before the 90s has very beautiful films, quality films but also weak ones. I mention cultural and educational ones above, because in many films produced by that Kinostudio, the closure of which then gave way to various abuses, the real life of a people, culture, traditions with a completely Albanian sole is shown in the film. The concept of the family, which is the most beautiful thing even from a religious point of view, love and respect for parents, teachers, homeland, emancipation of women, schooling, education of generations and their preparation in every field of life. Kinostudio’s film also shows education, courtesy and respect for the elderly, social education with work (which is almost completely absent in the endless transition of democratic developments), an endless list of virtues to build and live a life with dignity.
It also has historical value, because it best shows the efforts and struggles of a country for freedom and independence, the protection of the spoken language, of our broken lands. Films such as “Second November”, “Freedom or death”, “The road of writing”, “Mesonjetorja” are the historical evidence of our country and people. Other
films like “The Man with the Cannon”; “The Bronze Bust” (I teti ne bronz); “The War paths”; “Alleys that were looking for sun”; “At the beginning of summer” and other thematic ones from LANC, they give us a picture of World War II in our country, the occupation of Albania by Nazi-fascism and, unfortunately, by the collaboration of their tools that were thrown on the wrong side of history believing the great deception that the conqueror promised them, the union of our lands in exchange for their betrayal. Unfortunately, what has taken on the task of representing itself as right-wing and democratic, but without forgetting the “renewed” left, still today with the greatest impudence, manipulating, fabricating, distorting and misinterpreting facts and history, they are struggling with it. all the ways to justify the treason to the homeland of the “Mergate of the Cuckoos” around a self-proclaimed king (with the help of Serbian bayonets) on the run both in one country and in another where even the western world did not consider him as a monarch. Yes, but this is another topic…
The treacherous activity of this group, trained in refugee camps after the war and later gathered into subversive gangs after the liberation of Albania, is shown without exaggeration in the films “Special Assignment”; Operation “Fire” (based on reality, dedicated to the hero of the people of our conutry Pal Melyshi); “The Trap” (partially based on reality); “Threads to be cut”; “The Guest”; “The third”; “Silent duel” (another film based on a true event) to “When the foundations were laid” and “Days that brought spring”, a film whose fate, or the reason it was lost, is not clearly known.
Did they lost, rotten in any archives or censored like some other TV movies along with the Albanian dramas of the “People’s Theater” (Teatri Popullor)?
Meanwhile in the films “The first years”; “Confrontation”; “Light Commissioner”; “Our land”; “Bloody land”; “Dawns of the great season”; drama “Girl of the Mountains” etc. it shows the efforts, sacrifices and colossal work in the reconstruction of the country, the emancipation of women, the eradication of illiteracy, the obstacles and the hostile activities of subversive groups. Even some of the films on this topic are based on real events.
Strangely enough, with all the cultural and artistic values that the film carries, it begins after v. 1990, discussions and debates began to open about. Suddenly, the passion of the Albanians was transformed by being trumpeted as a forbidden propaganda, as a satanic ideology that must be blocked immediately!
During the 90s and after, it turned into an anxiety, characterizing the film as dangerous, with communist ideology, destructive and not at all educational in building a democratic society, etc., etc.
Even this topic about Kinostudio’s film has managed to turn into extremely strong debates until the closing and blocking of Kinostudio itself.
Who got killed by Kinostudio’s film? Which of the members of an Albanian family does the movie “Kapedani” kills? Or other movies like, “The happy couple”; “Ladies from the city”; “Twice mate”; “Rain on the beach”? Which of the Albanian families did the movie “Warm Hand” embarrass?
“I love Era”; “In every season”; “Love your name”; “The train leaves at 7 to 5”; “In our house” or “When a movie was shot”?
Which of the generation of children is educated with the ideology of communism by watching the films: “Beni walks by himslef”; “A little delay”; “Our friend Tili”; “The Spoiled Mimosa”, without wanting to mention here a long list of these films…
Then, if we follow the logic and reason of those who want to destroy Kinostudio’s film, we are drowning the last series of questions as follows: Who kills and destroys more, who transmits more anxiety and depression, “Tik- Tok”, “Facebook”, “Instagram” or the Albanian film (named by some stupid minds as communist films)?
From naming the film “communist”, the evil purpose of a group of people begins to take shape!
First of all, Kinostudio’s film, is not a communist film, but a production of the Albanian state for the Albanian people, produced and fabricated by Kinostudio “Shqiperia e Re” (afterwards AlbaFilm) under the public domain for all Albanians.
To shot down these films means to censor the work and contribution of the scenic arts, the artists of this genre, to deny with bad intent the work of entire generations that lay the foundations and continue to elevate the seventh art in Albania. Once upon a time, there is no denying the fact that the communist system cut long segments of a film tape or banned the screening of a film, condemned an artist…
But…….
Proving that nothing has changed, today a certain and politicized group seeks and insists on censoring an entire cinema!!! Where is the difference then? Censorship brings only dictatorship in every system!!!
Today, the will of the majority of our society, which still has Kinostudio’s film as its favorite cinematography, is opposed. However, many of Kinostudio’s films manage to escape, perhaps from “censorship” and evil minds, but still some special television films, Albanian dramas, song festivals, are no longer rebroadcast in any television media archive channel.
What is the cause?
1 – Avoiding a comparison that the Albanian art lovers can make between the two periods before and after the 90s?
2 – The malicious intent of a certain class that is afraid of history and uses censorship?
3 – And finally, which is perhaps not the last hypothesis, the use and abuse of these films for the personal benefit of a certain group of 4-5 directors, as the property of their families, because they were once designated as the most reliable by the secretaries of the Communist Party in power to perform the duties of the director in Kinostudio?
Maybe! The third base hypothesis is more stable.
Why was the Kinostudio “Shqiperia e Re” shot down and destroyed, made for the people and wealth of the Albanian state?
Why did the National Theater collapse and we still don’t have a new building today?
II
What are the achievements of Albanian cinematography after the 90s? Quality package films with artistic-cultural values that can be counted on the fingers, not to mention the theater performances, Albanian songs with street scripts and lyrics, taken from the notebooks of people in cafeterias with a truncated education.
About 90% of today’s theater performances are foreign scripts, which are staged by the director with 2-3 actors and have nothing to do with the problems of the lives of Albanians.
The same thing can be said about the topic of a movie, when our society currently leads a life full of troubles, problematic if not tragicomic! On the one hand, those who want the closure of the films complain, considering them not only ideological and murderous, but also out of touch with reality. On the other hand, nowdays why aren’t films made based on the reality of the time we live in today with all the problems of Albanian life?
I don’t think there is a lack of events, even the lives of Albanians are very full of events from all fields. Technology is also at the highest level of development. Then where are the scenarios that should cover the issues and topics of our society and country?
Well, as Mr. prime minister says: “There are jobs, but there are no professionals”!
This is also exactly the case with current cinematography. Until the real professionals come out, the Albanian film produced by Kinostudio “Shqiperia e Re” will continue to remain as the most favorite, the most liked, the most followed and if you wish, even with the terms of the time, it will remain even more the clicked on different social media. The disabled people have always attacked the work and achievement of the able people. This is the current situation not only for cinematography but in every aspect and field of Albanian life.
