The Archive Effect: Found Footage and Photography in Documentary Cinema

This panel will focus on the use of various types of archival footage in documentary film, and address questions of (re)appropriation, emotional impact, and revision of contested or silenced histories. The participants will discuss their work with family and public archives,  ways of using still imagery in documentary films, and new historical narratives that can be constructed with the help of archival footage.

The discussion is in English.
