CFP: Female Agency and Subjectivity in Film and Television

Organized by: Istanbul Bilgi University, Faculty of Communication, Department of Film and Television

April 11-13, 2019
İstanbul, Turkey

Abstract Submission Deadline: December 1, 2018

Venue: santral*istanbul* Eski Silahtarağa Elektrik Santralı Kazım Karabekir Cad. No: 2/13 34060 Eyüp İstanbul, Turkey

Confirmed Keynote Speakers:

  * Jackie Stacey (Manchester University, Centre for Interdisciplinary
    Research in Arts and Languages)
  * Alisa Lebow (University of Sussex, Film Studies)
  * Kate İnce (University of Birmingham, French Film and Gender Studies

    The conference aims to explore new configurations of female agency
    and subjectivity in film and television to develop new strategies
    for subverting patriarchal narratives. To this end, it explores the
    aesthetic, theoretical and ideological implications of research on
    women and cinema to re-visit the notion of female empowerment and
    subject formation processes both in the narrative structure and in
    the cinema and television industry itself.

    Historically, the politics and the forms of researching women and /
    in film and television have drawn upon several theoretical
    frameworks that focus on male gaze, female agency, women’s
    authorship, and so on. In search for a political and an aesthetic
    response to gender inequality in film and television, the conference
    aims to explore the stakes of feminist critique in this field. We
    are particularly interested in new ways of understanding the
    individuation, agency and subjectivity of women.

    The conference invites papers and panel proposals in a broad range
    of issues that are integral to feminism (sex, body, violence,
    representation, reproduction, etc.) and cinema. Possible topics
    include, yet not limited to:

  * the stakes of feminist critique in film studies
  * female agency in narration
  * women in the production and exhibition processes of film
  * female gaze
  * feminist auteurs
  * the female stereotypes in films
  * women, biotechnology and cinema
  * cinema and genetic imaginaries
  * gender and genre
  * gender and television culture
  * women and non-fiction
  * gender, the national and the transnational in film and television
