[Commlist] Contemporary Greek Film Cultures - Call for expressions of interest

This is a call for expressions of interest in hosting/organising the 5th 
Contemporary Greek Film Cultures conference in 2023 at your institution. 
This conference will mark the 10-year anniversary of the event, which 
has regularly brought together Greek Film Studies scholars from around 
the world.


The fourth Contemporary Greek Film Cultures international conference: 
Cultural Neighbourhoods and Co-productions in South East Europe and 
Beyond, took place in August 2020, and was hosted online in Thessaloniki 
at the University of Macedonia by Eleni Sideri. Amid COVID-19 travel 
restrictions and lockdowns, the organisers delivered a truly inspiring 
event, which has helped further expand our understanding of Greek Film 
Cultures and added to the successes of the preceding international 
conferences (University of Vienna, Vienna 2018, University of 
Washington, Seattle 2015 and Universities of Reading and Glasgow, London 
2013). Browse the conference’s social media page for further information 
on all the events:

Contemporary Greek Film Cultures has established itself as a regular 
feature in the Greek Film Studies calendar internationally, thanks to 
your support. The aim is to bring together the international community 
of Greek film scholars to share and discuss new research in the field 
every 2-3 years, at a different location each time. In addition, every 
conference is followed by at least one publication of selected, 
peer-reviewed papers, expanding and enriching the bibliographical corpus 
of Greek Film Studies in English. Most of all, this is an initiative 
that seeks to enhance collaborations and networking between scholars 
with interest in Greek cinema, as well as to become a bridge between 
industry and academia, sparking productive dialogues (in all conferences 
so far, key industry professionals have participated with keynote 
addresses, Q&As, screenings of their work).


Please contact the curator of the conference, Tonia Kazakopoulou, using 
the following email address to submit your interest in hosting the next 
meeting of Greek film scholars. In your email, please propose a theme 
and indicate how you would seek to fund the organisation of the 
conference, whether your institution would agree/has already agreed to

Logistical support, or other help you may need, can be provided.
