FILM 47.16 Film Festivals

Film festivals have become increasingly important institutions of film culture, even what one programmer called “an alternative distribution network.” Though invented in Europe in the 1930s, festivals are now a worldwide phenomenon encompassing art, commerce, tourism, and cultural identities. Festivals often provide meeting points for critics, directors, producers, distributors, actors, audiences, and others. Students will undertake case studies of individual film festivals from around the world.

The Timetable of Class Meetings contains the most up-to-date information about a course. It includes not only the meeting time and instructor, but also its official distributive and/or world culture designation. This information supersedes any information you may see elsewhere, to include what may appear in this ORC/Catalog or on a department/program website. Note that course attributes may change term to term therefore those in effect are those (only) during the term in which you enroll in the course.
