CINEMA AND THE WORLD – STUDIES ON SPACE AND CINEMA

​

‘Cinema and the World: Studies on Space and Cinema’ proposes to question and extend the scientific discussion on filmic spatiality. In a time defined by the radical shift of the films’ exhibition practice and audience reception, mise en scène and cinematic dispositifs react differently to the contemporaneous, fragmented, shrinking perception of the world. Here, the aesthetic, philosophical, historical and political are taken into account in the analysis of the ways time is spatialized in the moving image creation (screenwriting, camera work, editing) and apprehension (the apparatus).

The project’s team works autonomously on representations of the city in film, landscape, national cinemas, censorship, the archive and the moving image, women within the industry, relations between literature and film, screenwriting studies, political cinema. The group interests’ heterogeneity is an added value to the prolificacy of the discussions, while allowing for multiple thematic articulations to arise.
