[Commlist] Call for Papers: Film International

Call for Papers: Film International: Journal of World Cinema

Aims & Scope

Film International is devoted to the study of world cinemas, focusing on 
films within international and transnational contexts. The Journal 
offers insights into the broader scope of cinema practices across the 
globe, both feature length and otherwise, including by way of cultural 
comparison. It not only encourages attention to underrepresented regions 
such as the Global South, small-nation and minor cinemas, but also to 
how aesthetic choices have been made in these contexts.

Film International publishes rigorously peer-reviewed articles as well 
as book and festival reviews. It focuses on fostering a deeper 
understanding of filmmaking as an art form rooted in universal human 
expression, beyond the commercial priorities that dominate in certain 
regions. The journal aims to broaden the Film Studies canon, expanding 
the field while responding to ongoing changes in increasingly globalised 
societies and cultures.

New Open Call

Film International targets thought-provoking contributions to film 
analysis having proven applicable to international contexts, including 
by way of comparison. We welcome analytical essays that engage 
critically with any aspect of film, media, or screen culture, 
particularly those that demonstrate relevance in a transnational 
framework. A focus on film production, distribution, and/or consumption 
in underrepresented regions and cultures is encouraged. These should be 
contextualised from a broader awareness of cinematic practices around 
the globe. Beyond descriptive film surveys and/or biographical essays, a 
compelling, original argument should be reinforced throughout by an 
appropriate balance of recent references. Scholarly article submissions 
may also be interdisciplinary and should fall within 6,000-8,000 words. 
Book and festival reviews should be between 800 and 2000 words.
