Aims & Scope

New Cinemas publishes original research on cinema from around the world, including Argentina, South Africa, Iran, Germany and Korea, and about a variety of practices, not only the feature film format. We particularly welcome submissions from those close to completing their Ph.D., early career researchers and practitioners, especially from outside ‘western’ spaces, as well as work on film beyond the text (such as festivals, technology and marketing). We also seek to publish research and cutting-edge thought in shorter formats than the traditional academic article.
