FLM 340-49 Special Topics in National Cinemas

This course involves an extended and in-depth examination of how the films made in a particular country or region outside the United States are shaped by nationally prevailing socio-political and economic conditions, and express or articulate a sense of national identity. It may be organized around the exploration of a specific national cinema—such as French cinema, Italian cinema, or Japanese cinema—or a constellation of related national cinemas: for example, European cinemas, Latin American cinemas, or African cinemas.
