MISSING
- A banned chapter
Is an introduction to the problematics surrounding
censorship and the action of moral judgement, focusing here on the role of cinematography as a medium via which the cultural industry interacts with the social and the political.
The cine-forum is organized in three weeks, with different screenings taking place each tuesday and thursday. The selection includes films that were censored at some point in their history as well as films that have been proven as controversial, violent or offensive in specific periods.
More than advancing the pretense of being a complete anthology, the programme wishes to suggest a set of questions around the perception of the subversive, the shifts of morality, the flexibility of society, and its given tabus that are reflected in the material it censors or condemns.
Missing - a banned chapter, wants to introduce the dialectics of censorship as a
cultural process, which can reveal plenty about the trends of the society that is judging a film.
