A Postgraduate Film Studies Symposium
March 30th/ 31st 2007

CALL FOR PAPERS
Abstracts are invited for a film studies symposium on
aspects of contemporary narrative and documentary
film. The nature of the cinematic medium grants
filmmakers a power to portray cultures and to reflect
identities through the audiovisual image. How is
cinema used as an effective tool of investigation to
represent certain realities, and certain identities,
to domestic and international audiences?
Areas of investigation might include:
- Representations of masculinity/femininity
- Body and gender
- Liminal identities
- Race and ethnicity; regional, national,
trans-national identities
- Philosophy in, and of film – philosophical
reflections on the medium & aspects of the medium
