For those interested in Japanese film and media, there will be a symposium next month
SOAS Centre for Film and Screen Studies presents:
International Symposium: Rediscovering the Diva; Considering the Impact of Female Star Personae on Japanese Film and Visual Media
June 10-11th 2013
In the wake of a series of film retrospectives celebrating Japanese ‘divas’ and auteurs, this symposium critically addresses the application of the term ‘diva’ to the Japanese context. Can we speak of ‘divas’ in the context of the Japanese film and media industries? If so, who are these divas and what forms and functions do they take?
Admission
