Even during a time where greater attention is finally paid to female filmmakers, her name is rarely mentioned. Elek, as I learnt, is not unhappy about this \u2013 if anything she feels limited when discussed only as a \u2018woman filmmaker\u2019 or \u2018feminist director\u2019. Of course she is\u00a0 deeply invested in the question of women\u2019s place in society \u2013 from her work it is obvious; this is, however, most emphatically not all Elek\u2019s cinema is concerned with. To present Elek as a feminist filmmaker is to force her to a corner. And if there is one thing she has tried to escape all her life, then it is certainly cosy corners and facile labels.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>\u201cThere are many aspects to Elek\u2019s art that are desperately needed now.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>In recent times IFFR has honoured directors whenever they have a new work. But Elek\u2019s cinema made me consider that perhaps the films we need the most at a given moment in time are not always current, instead arriving out of the past in our days. There are many aspects to Elek\u2019s art that are desperately needed now: In a time of growing antisemitism, films like&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/iffr.com\/en\/iffr\/2023\/films\/memories-of-a-river\"><strong>Memories of a River\/&nbsp;<\/strong><strong><em>Tutajosok<\/em><\/strong><\/a><em>&nbsp;<\/em>or<em>&nbsp;<\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/iffr.com\/en\/iffr\/2023\/films\/a-free-man-%E2%80%93-the-life-of-ern%C5%91-fisch\"><strong>A Free Man<\/strong><em>&nbsp;\u2013&nbsp;<\/em><strong>The Life of Ern\u0151 Fisch&nbsp;<\/strong><strong><em>\/ Egy szabad ember \u2013 Fisch Ern\u0151 \u00e9lete&nbsp;<\/em><\/strong><\/a>help us understand the historical and societal roots of this sinister ideology.
