Conference: "There is no such thing as documentary"
Session 1: Speaking Nearby
Chaired by Dr Erika Balsom (Canada/United Kingdom), Reader, Film Studies, King’s College London (KCL)
Speakers:
Prof Chris Berry (United Kingdom), Professor, Film Studies, KCL
Dr Nicolas Helm-Grovas (Spain/United Kingdom), Lecturer, Film Studies Education, KCL
Respondent:
Dr Daniel Mann (Israel/United Kingdom), Leverhulme Early Career Fellow, KCL
This session will explore historical and contextual approaches to films and writings of Trinh T. Minh-ha, putting her work into dialogue with questions of intercultural cinema, the critique of documentary naturalism, and the relationship between film theory and film practice. In particular, speakers will think through how notions of “speaking nearby” and “speaking about” may serve as a lens through which to open broader considerations of the aesthetics, ethics, and politics of Trinh’s cross-disciplinary work.
