27.02.2008


Together (1956).

Week 19, 2008, at the University of Kent. This week’s lecture delivered by Dr. Catherine Grant for Introduction to Narrative Cinema 2: World Cinema is titled “Film as Document: Free Cinema as Case Study”.

These are the aims of my subsequent seminar:

• study the history of Free Cinema;
• understand the movement within its original context: Britain, 1950s;
• analyse the relation between documental and fictional elements in the films.
