Mediating cultural encounters through European screens
Our sense of “Europeanness” is achieved partly through seeing representations of European others on screen. This project will examine how films and television dramas represent European others; which European screen fictions travel best; the industrial and policy environments that enable their production; their audiences; and their role in fostering a European identity. The focus is on 2005-15, via an overview of film and TV production and dissemination and UK, Danish and Belgian case studies.
