World Cinema and the European Film Festival
Germany
Term: Summer
Dates: August 1-31
Description:
Based in Berlin, one of Europe's most exciting cities, this program examines contemporary cinema by considering the role of film festivals in producing and distributing films around the world. The highlight of our time will be a field trip to the Locarno Film Festival, set in the lovely lake region of southern Switzerland. Perched between Cannes (in the spring) and Venice (in the fall), Locarno's is the most important festival of the summer. The topography of the course reflects its focus: while Berlin is home to one of Europe's biggest and most important movie studios, the class will consider the relationship between conventional national filmmaking and the transnational film festival. We will examine a series of contemporary film makers whose reputations were established at film festivals, including Pedro Almodovar (Talk to Her), Michael Haneke (Funny Games), Wong Kar Wai (In the Mood for Love) and Lars von Trier (Dogville). Courses taught in English by University of California, Davis instructor, Jaimey Fisher, PhD.
Highlights:
11 days in Locarno, Switzerland to attend the Locarno Film Festival.
