MAS315: Contemporary World Cinemas

Contemporary World Cinemas engages with specialist areas of film theory in diverse social and cultural contexts. It deals with the question of alternative aesthetics in films produced outside the Hollywood mainstream. In any given semester, Contemporary World Cinemas will concentrate on one or more of the various international "cinemas of the moment", those forms of cinema that are exciting widespread critical attention. Students are introduced to concepts such as "national cinemas", "third cinema", "accented cinema", "postcolonial cinema" and "diasporic transnational cinema".
