ANTH 6001 - Documentary Filmmaking

Institution:

California Institute of Integral Studies

Subject:

Description:

This course will explore film and the craft of filmmaking as interrogation of history and the present. We will explore indigenous struggles for survival within modern nation states, and relate this to grassroots movements against systemic global oppression. We will look at immigration laws in relation to empire, resistance, and race; and gender, immigration, law, and state. Relying on film and filmmaking to pose questions of ourselves and others and the legacies that shape us in relation to landscape, memory, absence, the archive, the course will link the filmmaker's work with the work of students in the course to explore possibilities for solidarities, invigorate dialogue, and challenge structures of oppression.
