[Commlist] New Cinemas Volume 22 is published

Tue Oct 28 13:27:04 GMT 2025





Intellect is pleased to present New Cinemas Volume 22!


Special Issue: ‘New Perspectives in Film and Realism, Part 1’


Since the invention of cinema, and after more than a century of cinematic practice, the issue of film realism seems to remain an ambiguous one and has been debated from cinema’s outset. As our Special Issue ‘New Perspectives in Film and Realism’ aims to show, we believe that in the age of artificial intelligence (AI) and the dominance of the digital, the question of realism in cinema as an understanding of the world, as a representation and imposition, and as a mode of reception and consumption remains paramount.

Aims & Scope


New Cinemasprovides a peer-reviewed platform for scholarship that broadens and elaborates our knowledge of late-twentieth century and contemporary cinematic theory and practice. Welcoming approaches that do not take existing conceptual paradigms and canons as given, it anticipates submissions that refresh our understanding of established bodies of work as well as those which tackle practices still in the process of development.
