Konferenzbericht: Exploring the transnational in film studies [international conference organised by the Film Institute of the University of Zurich from the 7-9th of June 2017]

[…] Some of the speakers at the conference addressed the topic of migration in film, but most of them dealt with the circulation and distribution of films, aesthetics, genres beyond national borders, or with the analysis of mechanisms of the international coproduction and funding of films. […] The conference achieved its aim of becoming one of the first events to encourage the exchange of ideas about the “transnational” in film studies in the German-speaking world, but at the same time, it left many issues unresolved.
