Course:
COMM 355 Third World Cinema (3)
Prof. Ukadike. This course surveys the cinematic practices of the developing nations of Africa, Asia, Latin America, and the Middle East. The filmic practice, at once revolutionary and ideological, has not only produced some of the world's most striking filmic innovations, but is now recognized as having initiated a new phase and expanded definitions of the art of cinema. The issues to be addressed include: the development of a national cinema, the impact of politics on film style, video and television culture, the commonalities and differences in modes of production, the relationship of film to the societies' values and cultures, and the role of cinema as a mediation of history.
