NYU Cinema Studies Student Conference, Spring 2012
March 2-4, 2012 — New York University, New York, NY

The New York University Cinema Studies department is excited to announce the 2012 Student Conference. Each year, our goal is to bring together scholars from a variety of departments and disciplines in order to address the transformations currently shaping the field of cinema studies. We look forward to providing students at both the undergraduate and graduate levels with an opportunity to present their ideas to their peers. Organized by and for students, the conference offers a unique forum for intellectual dialogue and stands as a valuable learning experience.

This year’s conference seeks to sharpen our understanding of the concept of home by interrogating representations of the domestic in cinema and other media and scrutinizing the intersection between the moving image and home life in everyday experience. In examining this concept, our goal is to critique its limitations, while also mining its rich aesthetic, political, and social dimensions
