Cinematic Representation of Immigration, Spaces and Identities: The
representation of immigration and immigrants through films is very
often linked to the space in which they choose to live. How could we
define the dynamic between the notions of immigration, spaces and
identities through movies in today’s cinema from different countries?
How do immigration spaces foster the immigrants that live in them? How
do these spaces affect their identity? Do immigrants also reshape the
place where they have found asylum? This is the main frame of analysis
that this panel will explore. Send abstracts to Carole Salmon
[log in to unmask] and Maria Matz [log in to unmask]
Deadline: September 30, 2009
Please include with your abstract:
Name and Affiliation
Email address
Postal address
Telephone number
A/V requirements (if any; $10 handling fee)
The 41st Annual Convention will feature approximately 350 sessions, as
well as dynamic speakers and cultural events. Details and the complete
Call for Papers for the 2010 Convention will be posted in June:
www.nemla.org.
Interested participants may submit abstracts to more than one NeMLA
session; however panelists can only present one paper (panel or
seminar). Convention participants may present a paper at a panel and
also present at a creative session or participate in a roundtable.
Travel to Canada now requires a passport for U.S. citizens. Please get
your passport application in early.
