One more new issue: Alphaville

Alphaville: Journal of Film and Screen Media, no. 18 (2019) [open access]
- Special issue on "Refugee Filmmaking." From the foreword: "This issue of Alphaville centres on the work of displaced and exiled filmmakers and directors committed to challenging border violence. This is achieved in part through the work of the academic contributions in the main section, but perhaps most pertinently through the contributions of filmmakers in the two Dossiers. The editorial team in this issue practiced a form of borderless collegiality by imagining a scholarly publication that fosters empowering dialogues between academics, artists, activists and those with lived experience; debordering here begins with the vision of the editorial team and extends into the selection and configuration of contributions." Includes 7 articles, a podcast, and 2 dossiers, one on "Challenges of Separation for Refugee Filmmaking" and the other on "Carceral-Border Cinema: The Film from Manus Prison."
