his module will allow you to analyse the state of contemporary filmmaking in Germany, exploring film cultures in the GDR and FRG immediately prior to unification, as well as the issues surrounding the re-establishment of a single national cinema after the fall of the Wall. The module encourages you to study developments in recent German cinema in the context of the increasing globalisation of media industries and images. You will explore the dynamics of recent German filmmaking, including its relationship to Hollywood and other European cinemas, its approach to questions of transnationalism and transculturalism, particularly concerning the emergence of Turkish-German filmmaking, its approach to the representation of politics, history and the national past, of gender and sexuality, and also its use of genre and popular commercial film styles.
