2012), Occupy Anthropology! is organized by The Ethnographic Film Unit at
UBC in collaboration with The Museum of
Anthropology(http://www.moa.ubc.ca) and the University Neighbourhoods
Association(http://www.myuna.ca).
Call for submissions: We invite filmmakers to submit politically engaged
and activist anthropological films that turn the lens on what it means to
challenge cultural norms and political authority. We take up the
progressive intent and desires of the Movement of the Indignant in Spain
and across Europe, the Occupy Together Movement in North America, and the
push for real democracy globally. In the swirl of democratizing protests
we invite filmmakers to submit projects that take a position on the place
of anthropological film in protest and protest in anthropological film.
Please submit films by January 20, 2012. Info and submission form at
http://anthfilm.anth.ubc.ca/events.html
For further information please contact charles.menzies@ubc.ca
[Please forward to those who may be interested in submitting a film]
