Programme

The course aims to pay attention to the strategies of cinematographic staging, favoring the context of contemporary cinema without renouncing - however - to a close confrontation with the filmic practices that have marked the period of classical cinema and, above all, of modern cinema. The question of direction will be analyzed as an eminently "theoretical" issue, developing a reflection that intends to go beyond the question of filmic grammar.
Starting from the idea of ​​the cinematographic staging as a strategy for organizing the filmic space, the course will also focus on the contemporary practices that release the film from the movie theater by proposing forms of "relocation" that require a rethinking of the idea of ​​direction itself (in particular focusing attention on the relation movie theater-museum and on the work of the so-called "cinematographers-artists"). In this framework, the work of Abbas Kiarostami will provide relevant case studies that will allow a constant sliding of the theoretical questions raised in the practice of analyzing the films and installations by the Iranian filmmaker.
