TWO RIVERS: CROSS-CULTURAL DOCUMENTARY CINEMA KOBLENZ, JUNE 10-14, 2020

Dear list members,

The 2Rivers celebrates cross-cultural documentary cinema with a program of film screenings, workshops, retrospectives, and discussions. It takes place from June 10-14, 2020 at the Florinsmarkt, adjacent to the confluence of Rhine and Moselle and located right in the historic centre of Koblenz, Germany.

The curators of the 2Rivers invite you to submit current documentaries (completed after 01.01.17) that are cross-cultural or ethnographic in a broad sense, as the familiarity of the filmmakers with the people filmed in terms of language and culture allows them to create informed portraits of the realities of their lives. We are particularly interested in productions that explore the possibilities of audio-visual forms of representation beyond conventional formats.

Student filmmakers are encouraged to submit their film (completed after 01.01.17) to the „Students Competition“, which awards a prize in two categories: (1) “Food Cultures”: for films examining food and drink and the cultural practices, traditions and conventions associated with them, but also their change, e.g. through the migration of food and drink in times of globalisation. (2) „Sustainability“, for films that refer to the management of resources with regards to economic, ecological, cultural, social as well as political aspects of the term.

The submission deadline is February 29, 2020.

Please feel free to forward this call to anybody you think may be interested in the event.

We look forward to numerous submissions!

With kind regards, Prof. Dr. Andreas Ackermann Institut für Kulturwissenschaft Universität Koblenz-Landau, Campus Koblenz Universitätsstraße 1 56070 Koblenz, Germany
