Focus 2022 World Film Market Trends


Book Description

[bilingual edition ENG / FRE] Focus 2022: an anniversary issue! "This FOCUS marks a double anniversary for the European Audiovisual Observatory: this year we celebrate the 25th edition of this publication and also the 30th anniversary of the Observatory itself. The fact that FOCUS goes back 25 years in our history proves that the film market is of crucial importance to our work! In 25 years, we have constantly expanded our film-related expertise and services, and in parallel the scope of our data collection. This was only possible due to our invaluable networks, especially the EFARN, which therefore deserves our sincere thanks on the occasion of these anniversaries. The FOCUS report, however, would not have developed as it did without the vision of our partner, the Marché du Film and in particular Jérôme Paillard, its longstanding Executive Director, whom we will always link to this publication even after his imminent retirement. Thank you Jérôme for all these years of wonderfully easy cooperation! We are looking forward to continuing our work with your successor Guillaume Esmiol and the exceptional staff that he “inherits” from you." Susanne Nikoltchev, Executive Director of the European Audiovisual Observatory

World Cinema On Demand


Book Description

World Cinema on Demand brings together diverse contributions by leading film and media scholars to examine world cinema's dialogue with the transformations that took place during 2010-2014, engaging directly with ongoing debates surrounding national cinema, transnational identity, and cultural globalization, as well as ideas about genre, fandom and cinephilia. The contributions look at individual national patterns of online distribution, engaging with archives, SVODS and torrent communities. The essays also investigate the cross-cultural presence of world cinema in non-domestic online markets (such as Europe's, for example). As a result, the volume sheds light on geo-politically specific issues of film circulation, consumption and preservation within a range of culturally diverse filmmaking contexts, including case studies from India, Nigeria, Mexico and China. In this way, the collection maps the impact of different online formats of distribution in the understanding of World Cinema, underlining the links between distribution and media provisions as well as engaging with new forms of intermediation.
