- Course Catalog Description:
- This course will examine cinema's privileged relationship with memory. Our itinerary will take us through key French and Francophone films, asking how these works record, construct and deconstruct "individual" and "collective" memories. Topics will include bearing witness to the traumas of war, genocide and colonization; commemorating resistance and fostering emancipation; interventions in identity politics; (re)partitions of rural and urban spaces; and the elusive divide between fiction, documentary and memoir. Students will be expected to master a vocabulary for the formal analysis of film. prereq: Students should have completed FREN 3016 with a minimum grade of B.
