PARIS REFRAMED: 1960s French Cinema at the End of Empire
December 8, 2021 @ 3:00 pm - 4:45 pm +04
About the Event:
This talk will probe the role of the ethnographer Jean Rouch in shaping cutting-edge 1960s French cinema. Laure Astourian will organically integrate an under-studied contextual element — the end of the French colonial empire — into our understanding of early 1960s French cinema and its relevance today by tracing the connections among three films — an ethnography filmed in pre-independence Ivory Coast, a French New Wave classic, and a Parisian ethnography made in 1960.
About the Speaker:
Laure Astourian, Assistant Professor of French, Bentley University.
Language: English
