Postkoloniala perspektiv på audiovisuella media

This course on basic level in Cinema Studies is ideal for exchange students and free movers – and also master’s students – interested in the topic of postcolonialism and moving images. Taught all in English and in Filmhuset.

The course introduces postcoloniality both as a theoretical framework and an audiovisual field which address issues of cultural, ethnic and racialized differences. Through various examples and case studies that cover topics and areas such as Third Cinema, Fourth Cinema and World Cinema, the course gives students tools to think critically about representation, "race," and manifestations of colonial stereotypes in today's media culture, and about the ways in which national and ethnic hierarchies are produced and potentially disrupted.

After the course, students are expected to be able to:
- Display comprehensive knowledge of the specific concepts and issues that occur within the field of postcolonial studies
- Use analytical tools to discuss contemporary challenges in postcolonial media studies.
- Show an ability to contextualize a breadth of postcolonial history and research and apply it to moving image media.
