A UC Berkeley course open to the public as space permits.
Lectures by Emily Carpenter
Emily Carpenter is a lecturer in the Department of Film and Media at UC Berkeley.
BAM/PFA and the UC Berkeley Department of Film and Media copresent the film-lecture course Film 50, now celebrating its twenty-first year. This year's course, taught by Emily Carpenter, showcases an exciting lineup of world cinema classics, globetrotting between continents and featuring strong examples from various film movements and historical periods. The film selection also draws upon the strengths of the BAM/PFA film collection and our ability to present the film experience faithfully, with a high standard of technical presentation. We encourage you to come have a communal experience of viewing while learning how to understand the complex medium of film.
