Instituto
de Ciências Sociais, Universidade de Lisboa
The 10th Annual
Small Cinemas Conference will take place at ICS-ULisboa in Lisbon, Portugal,
between 25 and 27 September 2019. On the topic of ‘Small Cinemas, Small
Spaces’, the conference will be centered on issues of scale and spatiality in
film, with the aim to explore the geographies of small cinemas. The call for
papers is open for individual presentations of maximum 20 minutes, as well as
for pre-constituted panels with a maximum of three presentations each. Proposals should be submitted via email to smallcinemas@ics.ulisboa.pt by Friday 1 March 2019,
and include a title, an abstract of maximum 250 words, and a short bio note. The
conference’s languages will be English and Portuguese.
‘Small Cinemas, Small Spaces’
aims to discuss matters of space in the cinemas of small nations, with regards
to representation, the materiality and marketing of film locations, and film production,
viewing and exhibition practices in peripheral film cultures. The event also wishes
to bring together scholars exploring notions of space and scale in film, by
considering what can be the small spaces of cinema, from early cinematic
attractions to the recent dissemination of individual screens and broadcasting
digital platforms.
Topics for discussion may
include, but are not limited to:
-
the geographies
of film: how space and time are articulated in small cinemas
-
representations
of space in peripheral or marginal cinemas
-
spaces and scales
of film production, e.g. costume and set design in small cinemas
-
film locations in
small nation cinemas
-
exhibition venues
and viewing practices in small nations
-
audiences’
experiences of minor cinemas
-
small spaces for
film exhibition
-
the emergence of
film societies as alternatives to the ‘large’ mainstream
-
smartphones, tablets
or other devices as cinematic spaces
-
cinema and scale
in Youtube and other digital platforms
-
making films for
small spaces
More information about the
event, including keynote speakers, will be circulated soon. For any questions,
please write to the conference organizers at smallcinemas@ics.ulisboa.pt or

The 10th Annual Small Cinemas
Conference will take place in Lisbon in September 2019. On the topic of ‘Small
Cinemas, Small Spaces’, the conference will be centered on issues of scale and
spatiality in film, with the aim to question the geographies of small cinemas.
Dear friends and colleagues,
As former and future
organizers of the Small Cinemas annual conference, or simply as friends who
always helped me spread the word around, could you please announce the 10th
annual Small Cinemas conference that will take in Lisbon, Portugal, in 2019?
It will be posted these
coming days on a number of websites, but maybe not all participants at the past
small cinemas conferences get to read them. And I know many colleagues &
former presenters are very interested in small cinemas.
If you also know of other
posting sites other than BAFTSS, AFFECAV, H-Net, UPenn, MLA and possibly SCMS,
it would be great to post the attached CFP's content.
Many thanks and I wish you an
enjoyable semester, in a better climate (the summer was so hot!!), with
beautiful projects!
