Harun Farocki. Close Reading

This workshop will combine the screening of three films with their subsequent critical analysis. Proceeding scene-by-scene and by selecting particular stills, the workshop will experiment with new approaches and discourses—in between the critical essay, cinematographic criticism and film studies—that relate to the films. The selected films present different characteristics through their traditional and experimental orientations as well as through their production budgets.
