Film festivals
from European geopolitics to global cinephilia
Gedrukt boek
Film festivals are popular events that attract lovers of cinema, but they are also a uniquely revealing index of globalisation in the realm of culture and the arts. The author shows how festivals in Europe turned political divisions and national rivalry into advantages, eventually expanding into a successful global network. The book proposes a comprehensively new understanding of film festivals. Issues addressed range from programming and festival prizes to national legimation and city marketing, from value addition and cinephilia to glamour and film markets. It also asks questions about the future: does success depend on the promotion of filmmakers as ''auteurs" and the regular discovery of "new waves", or are festivals increasingly issue- and personality driven?
