Short Abstract:

The Society for International Ethnology and Folklore invites film submissions to be screened or presented during its 17th Congress, which will be held in Aberdeen, Scotland from the 3rd to the 6th of June 2025.

Long Abstract:

For the film programme, we encourage submissions that engage with the process of unwriting, challenge hegemonic frameworks which limit us to predetermined paths and casually accepted paradigms. Ethnologists, folklorists, cultural and social anthropologists, and representatives of related disciplines (e.g. urban planning, architecture, design) and institutions (museums, archives, etc.), as well as filmmakers and other artists (e.g., photographers, sound designers) are encouraged to submit film proposal for screening and discussion during the conference.

This Film Session has so far received 14 film proposal(s).
