Watching’ Europe – Understanding European Culture and Society through Cinema
Credits : 2 Hours : 32
This course aims to sensitize learners from diverse studies to the multilayered historical contexts which have shaped (and continue to shape) European societies and cultures and the relevance of understanding the same in today’s increasingly interconnected world. A set of carefully chosen films not only serves as the medium through which the past is explored and critically discussed, but in doing so, the learner is also exposed to the rich artistic diversity of European cinema too. The module provides an ideal platform to creatively engage with European and world history in a format that is accessible to all, informative, and entertaining. The themes treated in the chosen films invite participants to discover and enter into a dialogue with embedded socio-political and cultural contexts that characterize both the historical process and the film-making itself.
