In Search of Balkan Cinema: Approaches, Uses, Prospects, University of Belgrade, Serbia, The paper will offer a conceptual (re)mapping of the term ‘Balkan cinema’ with reference to film history, contemporary film production, distribution and reception, as well as future prospects. For Dusan Makavejev the project of Balkan cinema has been about ‘connecting a disconnected space’ (Iordanova, 2006:1), a space consisting of different languages, religions, nations that has nonetheless a lot of cultural and historical similarities. Paradoxically, perhaps, it was the explosive disconnectedness of the 1990s that brought Balkan cinema into conceptual existence, through the international visibility of a number of films from the region, and the consequent emergence of Balkan cinema as a field of academic inquiry. Twenty years later, the assumed stability that accession to the European Union promised to bring is marred by new geopolitical and existential challenges for Europe. In the new post-communist and crisis-ridden realities of ‘South Eastern Europe’, the ‘Balkan’ brand risks becoming further reduced to politically incorrect Orientalist stereotypes, and/or unhelpful attachments to self-deprecation. By focusing mostly on recent developments in Balkan cinema, its regional and international circulation, and its academic study, the paper will explore the usefulness of the term in creating a collective – but not reductive – identity for the cinemas of the region.. 2017

A Blast and other crises: Tracing the economy and ecology of recent Greek cinema, University of Oxford, Pivoting around Syllas Tzoumerkas’ A Blast (2014), a film set in crisis-ridden Greece and focusing on a young mother’s radical break with her past, the talk explores the state of Greek cinema since the advent of the financial crisis in 2010. Drawing on industry data and interviews with filmmakers, distributors and cinema owners, as well as on selected film-textual examples, it utilizes the concepts of ‘economy’ and ‘ecology’ to map out the landscape of Greek cinema since the crisis. In so doing it combines quantitative and qualitative analysis, and presents both a macro and a micro analysis of the effects of the cultural politics of austerity on the production, circulation and reception of Greek films.. 2017
