It allows both active participation and auditing, and presents 16 lectures by experts on subjects like Japanese horror and science fiction, the success of the Chinese film industry, the auteur cinema of Thailand, the fascinating aspects of animé and the contemporary cinema of India. It also has free-of-charge interactive online courses focusing on different aspects of Asian film criticism and journalism. “The lecturers combine a real interest in pop culture with a wide knowledge about its social contexts, links to traditions, and its relationship with the trends present in modern culture. The fascination with selected tropes or auteurs opens the door to an in-depth understanding of Asian cinemas and their role in the context of world film,” informs Anna Maminska, coordinator of the project.
