European cinema has evolved from a homogenous and selective object of 
study, mostly shaped by frameworks of national industry, identity and 
culture, to a much more diversified field, reflecting the shift to a 
post-colonial, post-communist, post-national, globalised Europe. In the 
context of an increasingly diverse but also split society, in which 
social polarisation is on the increase due to the crisis of the Eurozone 
and the decline of the welfare states, and in which populism and 
nationalisms are on the rise, resulting in the strengthening of the 
Fortress Europe project, this conference aims to turn the spotlight on 
the less-represented and less-audible voices in European cinema in all 
its forms: fiction, documentary, mainstream, art house, independent, 
exploitation, art film. With an inclusive focus encompassing issues of 
production, distribution and reception, of representation and of form, 
of dissent and of control, the conference invites contributions that 
engage from !
 a wide
range of theoretical perspectives and methodological approaches with the 
politics of difference and with the representation and/or expression of 
alternative viewpoints in European films / in films made in Europe.
Keynote Speakers: Professor Ewa Mazierska (University of Central 
Lancashire) and Professor Chris Wahl (Film University Babelsberg Konrad 
Wolf)

Conference organisers: Sergio Villanueva Baselga (Universitat de 
Barcelona), Anders Marklund (University of Lund), Laura Rascaroli 
(University College Cork), Gertjan Willems (Ghent University).

The Conference is hosted and supported by the Discipline of Film and 
Screen Media, University College Cork.
