AT4451 World Cinema

This interdisciplinary course will examine diverse forms of contemporary cultural commentary arising from world cinema. Building on the foundation of AT3451 Film Culture and Identity, the course will continue to examine how film as an art form is particularly suited as a tool for cultural critique. In World Cinema the student will experience the intersection of discourses arising from history, sociology, cultural studies, art, literature and a multiplicity of other fields of inquiry. The course will particularly focus on the cinema of minorities, women and marginalized people throughout the world. Students will screen and discuss in class a variety of world films. Students will be expected to write three critical essays and do a final presentation deconstructing two films of their choice. Credits: 3.000
