Summary

This is for you if... you want to delve deeper into the relationship between film, culture and society while acquiring advanced research skills.

This course, run in collaboration with international film specialists in Modern Languages at Leicester, will provide you with a deeper understanding of the relationship between films and the cultures and societies in which they are created and consumed.

You will have the opportunity to increase your knowledge of different film styles and film makers during the course, which will focus primarily on the cinemas of Hollywood, Britain and Europe.

The course will address the key aspects of postgraduate film studies, including the historical research of film industries, formal and thematic film analysis, and the relationship between film and society.

This degree places particular emphasis on developing your independent learning and advanced research methods and skills, with your dissertation, which will be on a subject of your choice, contributing strongly to the final assessment.
