[Filmfestivalresearch] Film Festival Research

[Gregory Dolgopolov]

Hello

I am new here and very impressed to see such a wonderfully vibrant research community. I curate the Russian Resurrection Film Fstival in Australia and I am also doing some research on national film festivals in Sydney. We have some 50 annual ethnic community national film festivals. Some like the French Film Festival have been going for 18 years, others like the Persian Flm Festival are starting in a fortnight. I was wondering if anyone is aware of any research on national film festivals in a multicultural urban centre and the relationship of the mainstream to the ethnic communities and the construction of a national film culture in the context of multinationalism?

Thanks

Greg
