Suggested Prerequisite: placement into WR115 (college-level reading and writing skills).
This course focuses on women directors around the world and the contributions they have made to film (and video). Students will be introduced to the historical and economic context of film production, as well as to a formalist film vocabulary, including the basic visual and aural elements of film language. They will explore readings in feminist scholarship and analyze women-authored cinema-- narrative, experimental, and documentary-- in the context of race, ethnicity, gender, sexuality, class, and nationality. Films will span the silent period to the present.
