00:12
When I was four years old,
0
12991
1672
Kada sam imala četiri godine,
00:14
my dad taught me the Taos Pueblo Hoop Dance,
1
14687
2895
moj otac me naučio Taos Pueblo plesu s obručima,
00:17
a traditional dance born hundreds of years ago in Southwestern USA.
2
17606
4131
tradicionalnom plesu nastalom prije više stotina godina na jugozapadu SAD-a.
00:22
A series of hoops are created out of willow wood,
3
22508
2920
Niz obruča izrađeno je od vrbinog drva,
00:25
and they're threaded together to create formations of the natural world,
4
25452
3862
isprepletenih međusobno tako da tvore oblike prirodnog svijeta,
00:29
showing the many beauties of life.
5
29338
2019
prikazujući mnoge ljepote života.
00:31
In this dance, you're circling in a constant spin,
6
31923
2982
U tom plesu krećete se u stalnoj rotaciji,
00:34
mimicking the movement of the Sun
7
34929
2062
oponašajući kretanje Sunca
00:37
and the passage of time.
8
37015
1647
i prolazak vremena.
00:40
Watching this dance was magic to me.
9
40232
3259
Gledanje ovog plesa bilo je magično za mene.
00:43
Like with a time capsule,
10
43515
1358
Kao i kod vremenske kapsule,
00:44
I was taking a look through a cultural window to the past.
11
44897
3280
gledala sam kroz kulturni prozor u prošlost.
00:48
I felt a deeper connection
12
48201
1908
Osjetila sam dublju povezanost
00:50
to how my ancestors used to look at the world around them.
13
50133
3303
s time kako su moji preci nekad gledali na svijet oko sebe.
00:54
Since then, I've always been obsessed with time capsules.
14
54046
3749
Od tada sam uvijek bila opsjednuta vremenskim kapsulama.
00:57
They take on many forms,
15
57819
1628
Ima ih u raznim oblicima,
00:59
but the common thread is that they're uncontrollably fascinating
16
59471
3085
ali zajednička im je nit da su nekontrolirano fascinantne
01:02
to us as human beings,
17
62580
2122
nama kao ljudskim bićima,
01:04
because they're portals to a memory,
18
64726
2166
zato jer su portali prema sjećanjima
01:06
and they hold the important power of keeping stories alive.
19
66916
3814
i imaju važnu moć održavanja priče živima.
01:11
As a filmmaker and composer,
20
71503
2109
Kao redateljica i skladateljica,
01:13
it's been my journey to find my voice,
21
73636
2579
moj put je bio da pronađem svoj glas,
01:16
reclaim the stories of my heritage and the past
22
76239
3369
obnoviti priče svoje baštine i prošlosti
01:19
and infuse them into music and film time capsules to share.
23
79632
4062
i uključiti ih u glazbene i filmske vremenske kapsule koje ću dalje dijeliti.
01:24
To tell you a bit about how I found my voice,
24
84838
2326
Kako bih vam rekla kako sam pronašla svoj glas,
01:27
I'd like to share a bit about how I grew up.
25
87188
2270
želim vam reći malo o tome kako sam odrasla.
01:29
In Southern California, I grew up in a multigenerational home,
26
89880
3392
Odrasla sam u Južnoj Kaliforniji, u obitelji gdje je bilo više generacija,
01:33
meaning I lived under the same roof
27
93296
1890
što znači da sam živjela pod istim krovom
01:35
as my parents, aunts, uncles and grandparents.
28
95210
3282
sa svojim roditeljima, tetama, stričevima, bakama i djedovima.
01:38
My mother is Dutch-Indonesian and Chinese with immigrant parents,
29
98936
4623
Moja majka je nizozemsko-indonezijskih i kineskih korijena, roditelja imigranata,
01:43
and my father is Ojibwe
30
103583
1986
a moj otac je Ojibwe
01:45
and an enrolled tribal member
31
105593
1604
i upisani plemenski član
01:47
of the Prairie Band's Potawatomi Tribe in Northeastern Kansas.
32
107221
3390
plemena Prairie Band's Potawatomi u sjeveroistočnom Kansasu.
01:51
So one weekend I'd be learning how to fold dumplings,
33
111238
2980
Tako bih jednog vikenda učila kako raditi okruglice od tijesta,
01:54
and the next, I'd be traditional-style dancing
34
114242
2305
a sljedećeg bih plesala tradicionalni ples
01:56
at a powwow,
35
116571
1197
na svečanosti,
01:57
immersed in the powerful sounds of drums and singers.
36
117792
3378
uronjena u moćne zvukove bubnjeva i pjevača.
02:02
Being surrounded by many cultures was the norm,
37
122405
2606
Biti okružena mnogim kulturama bilo je norma,
02:05
but also a very confusing experience.
38
125035
2867
ali i vrlo zbunjujuće iskustvo.
02:08
It was really hard for me to find my voice,
39
128500
2189
Bilo mi je stvarno teško pronaći svoj glas,
02:10
because I never felt I was enough --
40
130713
2242
jer nikada nisam osjećala da sam dovoljno...
02:12
never Chinese, Dutch-Indonesian or Native enough.
41
132979
3843
Kineskinja, nizozemska Indonežanka ili domorotkinja.
02:17
Because I never felt I was a part of any community,
42
137381
3051
Budući nikada nisam osjećala da sam dio bilo koje zajednice,
02:20
I sought to learn the stories of my heritage
43
140456
3433
krenula sam učiti priče svoje baštine
02:23
and connect them together to rediscover my own.
44
143913
2769
i povezati ih zajedno kako bih otkrila svoje.
02:27
The first medium I felt gave me a voice was music.
45
147254
3711
Prvi medij kojeg sam osjetila da mi je dao glas bila je glazba.
02:32
With layers of sounds and multiple instruments,
46
152043
3182
Kroz slojeve zvukova i raznih instrumenata,
02:35
I could create soundscapes and worlds that were much bigger than my own.
47
155249
3658
mogla sam stvoriti zvukovlja i svjetove mnogo veće od svog vlastitog.
02:39
Through music, I'm inviting you into a sonic portal
48
159556
2880
Kroz glazbu, pozivam vas u sonični portal
02:42
of my memories and emotions,
49
162460
2002
svojih uspomena i osjećaja,
02:44
and I'm holding up a mirror to yours.
50
164486
2183
i držim vam ogledalo prema vašim vlastitim.
02:47
One of my favorite instruments to play is the guzheng zither,
51
167538
3200
Jedan od mojih omiljenih instrumenata je citra guzheng,
02:50
a Chinese harp-like instrument.
52
170762
1954
kineski instrument sličan harfi.
02:53
While the hoop dance is hundreds of years old,
53
173190
2304
I dok je ples s obručima star stotine godina,
02:55
the guzheng has more than 2,000 years of history.
54
175518
3795
guzheng ima povijest staru više od 2,000 godina.
02:59
I'm playing the styles that greatly influence me today,
55
179337
2675
Sviram stilovima koji uvelike utječu na mene danas,
03:02
like electronic music,
56
182036
1637
kao što je elektronska glazba,
03:03
with an instrument that was used to play traditional folk music long ago.
57
183697
3982
instrumentom koji je davno korišten za sviranje tradicionalne glazbe.
03:08
And I noticed an interesting connection:
58
188235
2818
I primjetila sam zanimljivu poveznicu:
03:11
the zither is tuned to the pentatonic scale,
59
191077
2431
citra je podešena prema pentatonskoj ljestvici,
03:13
a scale that is universally known in so many parts of music
60
193532
3552
ljestvici koja je univerzalno poznata u tolikim dijelovima glazbe
03:17
around the world,
61
197108
1185
širom svijeta,
03:18
including Native American folk songs.
62
198317
2813
uključujući i američke domorodačke narodne pjesme.
03:21
In both Chinese and Native folk,
63
201781
1922
Kod oba naroda, kineskog i domorodačkog,
03:23
I sense this inherent sound of longing and holding onto the past,
64
203727
4257
osjećam ovaj zvuk čežnje i držanja za prošlost,
03:28
an emotion that greatly drives the music I create today.
65
208008
3395
emocija koja uvelike potiče glazbu koju stvaram danas.
03:32
At the time, I wondered if I could make this feeling of immersion
66
212603
3538
Ponekad sam se pitala mogu li stvoriti ovaj osjećaj uranjanja
03:36
even more powerful,
67
216165
1158
čak još jačim,
03:37
by layering visuals and music --
68
217347
2212
slaganjem slojeva vizualnog i glazbe --
03:39
visuals and images on top of the music.
69
219583
2747
vizualnog i slikovnog povrh same glazbe.
03:42
So I turned to internet tutorials to learn editing software,
70
222870
3578
Tako sam na internetu krenula učiti programe za uređivanje,
03:46
went to community college to save money
71
226472
2097
krenula na javni fakultet kako bih uštedjela novac
03:48
and created films.
72
228593
1320
i stvarala filmove.
Nakon nekoliko godina eksperimentiranja,
03:51
After a few years experimenting,
73
231012
1739
03:52
I was 17 and had something I wanted to tell and preserve.
74
232775
3398
imala sam 17 godina i nešto što sam htjela pokazati i sačuvati.
03:56
It started with a question:
75
236197
1628
Počela sam pitanjem:
03:58
What happens when a story is forgotten?
76
238692
3070
Što se dogodi kada se priča zaboravi?
04:02
I lead with this in my latest documentary film,
77
242985
2670
Time počinjem u svom najnovijem dokumentarnom filmu,
04:05
"Smoke That Travels,"
78
245679
1517
"Dim koji putuje",
04:07
which immerses people into the world of music, song, color and dance,
79
247220
5285
koji uranja ljude u svijet glazbe, pjesme, boja i plesa,
04:12
as I explore my fear that a part of my identity, my Native heritage,
80
252529
5312
dok istražujem svoj strah, da će dio mog identiteta, moje domorodačke baštine,
04:17
will be forgotten in time.
81
257865
2005
biti zaboravljen u vremenu.
04:20
Many indigenous languages are dying due to historically forced assimilation.
82
260728
4489
Mnogi autohtoni jezici umiru zbog povijesno prisilne asimilacije.
04:25
From the late 1800s to the early 1970s,
83
265619
3618
Od kasnih 1800-tih do ranih 1970-ih,
04:29
Natives were forced into boarding schools,
84
269261
2435
domoroci su bili prisiljeni ići u internate,
04:31
where they were violently punished if they practiced traditional ways
85
271720
3596
gdje su bili nasilno kažnjavani ako su prakticirali svoju tradiciju,
04:35
or spoke their native language,
86
275340
1722
ili govorili svojim materinjim jezikom,
04:37
most of which were orally passed down.
87
277086
2231
koji je većinom prenašan usmenim putem.
04:39
As of now, there are 567 federally recognized tribes in the United States,
88
279892
5675
Trenutno je u Sjedinjenim Državama 567 savezno priznatih plemena,
04:45
when there used to be countless more.
89
285591
1861
dok ih je nekad bilo nebrojeno više.
04:48
In my father's words,
90
288179
1600
Riječima mog oca,
04:49
"Being Native is not about wearing long hair in braids.
91
289803
3559
"Biti domorodac ne znači nositi dugu kosu u pletenicama.
04:53
It's not about feathers or beadwork.
92
293386
2416
Nije stvar u perju ili perlicama.
04:56
It's about the way we all center ourselves in the world as human beings."
93
296244
4390
Radi se o načinu na koji smo svi u centru svijeta kao ljudska bića."
05:01
After traveling with this film for over a year,
94
301776
2299
Nakon putovanja s ovim filmom više od godinu dana,
05:04
I met indigenous people from around the world,
95
304099
2401
upoznavala sam domoroce posvuda,
05:06
from the Ainu of Japan,
96
306524
1629
od Ainu iz Japana,
05:08
Sami of Scandinavia,
97
308177
1450
Sami iz Skandinavije,
05:09
the Maori
98
309651
1175
Maora
05:10
and many more.
99
310850
1234
i mnogih drugih.
05:12
And they were all dealing with the exact same struggle
100
312108
3859
I svi su bili suočeni s potpuno istom borbom
05:15
to preserve their language and culture.
101
315991
2060
za očuvanje svog jezika i kulture.
05:19
At this moment, I not only realize the power storytelling has
102
319168
3590
Ovog trena, shvaćam ne samo moć pripovijedanja,
05:22
to connect all of us as human beings
103
322782
2392
kako bismo se povezali kao ljudska bića,
05:25
but the responsibility that comes with this power.
104
325198
2805
već i odgovornost koja dolazi uz tu moć.
05:28
It can become incredibly dangerous when our stories are rewritten or ignored,
105
328480
4298
Može postati nevjerojatno opasno kada se naše priče prepisuju ili ignoriraju,
05:32
because when we are denied identity,
106
332802
1986
jer kada nam je uskraćen identitet,
05:34
we become invisible.
107
334812
1541
postajemo nevidljivi.
05:36
We're all storytellers.
108
336890
2153
Svi smo mi pripovjedači.
05:39
Reclaiming our narratives and just listening to each other's
109
339705
4636
Vraćanje vlastitih priča i samo slušanje jedni drugih,
05:44
can create a portal that can transcend time itself.
110
344365
3452
može stvoriti portal koji može nadići i samo vrijeme.
05:48
Thank you.
111
348397
1183
Hvala Vam.
05:49
