[ecrea] 22nd International Bremen film Conference 2017

*The 22nd International Bremen film Conference 2017 will take place from 
May 3rd to May 7th, 2017 at Bremen’s communal cinema CITY 46.*

Using film for research and deriving a method from this can take very 
different forms and directions. In natural sciences and the humanities, 
for example, film produces visual evidence by way of recording, 
visualizing and archiving motion sequences. Similarly to the philosophy 
essay, a film essay can be used as a method of thinking and writing. 
Furthermore, film can become a source for contributing to historiography 
or displaying a history of human ideas and desires. Finally, in the 
context of artistic research, film offers methodological approaches to 
linking science and art, ranging from experimental film to documentary 
and fiction film as well as to contemporary forms such as interactive 
documentaries and video essays. The 22nd International Bremen Film 
Conference aims to address the interdisciplinary implications of film as 
a research method. It is open to scholars in film, cultural studies and 
history, as well as to scholars working in related fields. During the 
conference, films will be screened at our local cinema, discussed with 
filmmakers and examined in relation to their research value.

*Keynotes:
Paolo Favero (Antwerp), Sylvie Lindeperg (Paris), Catherine Russell 
(Montreal)*

The 22nd International Bremen Film Conference offers a platform for 
interdisciplinary exchange on historic and contemporary approaches to 
film with the intention of determining how the medium can be used as a 
research method. The conference will combine talks, panel discussions, 
film screenings, and Q&As with artists.
