Transcultural Cinema Forum 2024

The Transcultural Studies Division holds lecture series as a part of the course, “Transcultural Asian Cinema” conducted by Prof. Mitsuyo Wada-Marciano.

The theme of the Transcultural Cinema Forum in the second semester of 2024 is “New Film History from Women‘s Documentaries. ” The objective of this course is to examine Japanese documentary film history from the perspective of women through study of films of women such as Oda Kaori, Komori Haruka, and Toda Hikaru, who have worked as directors without learning filmmaking from “men.”

Since this course is taught in two consecutive classes, the entire course is three hours long. Therefore, the course is eight weeks instead of fifteen. During this period, we will have six guest speakers to share their thoughts and films, and at the same time, discussions with all participants are planned during the Q&A session after the screenings.
