What the college says

The Film Studies course aims to equip students with the ability to explore and understand the power and fascination of Film as a medium through detailed analysis of a wide range of texts. Films analysed will be old and new, local and global, popular and sometimes unknown. Each unit will introduce students to the conceptual tools and critical questions that film scholars have asked and are asking about the nature, function and value of film. Students will be introduced to films of seminal importance that will challenge, complicate and broaden their understanding of what film is and can be.
