Requisite(s): 58225 Introduction to Film Studies
There are also course requisites for this subject. See access conditions.

Through a detailed engagement with a broad range of different media (including film, video, television and new media) this subject explores the various channels through which we come to know, understand and engage with the past, memory and historical experience. Drawing on extensive scholarship in the field, students analyse how, and with what effects, certain texts from the historical blockbuster to experimental video confirm, challenge and/or complicate our understanding of the past and its relationship to the present.
