Whether by exploring regional variations within individual nations or the role played by the local in global cinema, this symposium strives to put diverse manifestations of cinematic modes, genres, and styles in dialogue with one another. This event is aimed at bringing PGRs from different academic institutions together to discuss their research in a welcoming and supportive environment. The initiative also intends to stimulate reflection on glocal and regional cinema in order to facilitate exchanges of ideas and encourage different approaches to the topics covered.
