Alterity&Authrty/Cent Euro Cin
Authority and alterity are key concepts for our understanding of the conflations of film, everyday life, and politics, in the former East Germany and in Central Europe. In their multiple facets, authority and alterity encompass everyday and political oppression and resistance, heteronormativity vs. queerness, women's struggles in socialist and capitalist societies vs. feminist sensibilities, etc. Adopting a comparative lens, students will trace the development of genres, experimental styles, film studio structures unique to the region, and strategies to disseminate subversive films abroad.
