MCM 1504R - Iranian Cinema
The emergence in the 1990s of Iranian cinema onto the world stage caught many by surprise. This cinema has, however, had a long and illustrious history. While attempting to provide an historical survey of these films, we will focus primarily on those produced in the last two decades. We will pay close attention to cinematic form but will also examine the ways the films intersect with cultural-political events, including the Revolution and the subsequent Islamicization of the culture, the institutionalization of the “modesty system,” and the alteration of divorce laws. 0.000 OR 1.000 Credit hours 0.000 OR 1.000 Lecture hours 0.000 Lab hours Levels: Graduate, Undergraduate Schedule Types: Filming/Screening, Primary Meeting All Sections for this Course Modern Culture and Media Department
