Our program's series explores a wide variety of topics related to film and media research\, production\, and teaching. Th is event will feature two talks: \n\n \n\n"Researching the Film Culture of Colonial Korea through Star Studies" led by Andy Lee\, PhD candidate\, Fi lm & Media Studies in the English Department.\n\nThis talk introduces my c urrent dissertation project\, which reexamines the film history of colonia l Korea through the concepts and methods of star studies. Despite only a d ozen of the roughly 200 features made under Japanese rule surviving\, film scholarship on colonial Korea has grown and expanded in recent decades\, rebuilt through newspapers\, magazines\, and government records\, and many works that came out mostly focus on policy\, industry\, and representatio n. Studying film stars helps us see another aspect of colonial film cultur e in relation to the competing meanings layered on stars and the societal contradictions they embodied\, such as gender\, nation\, and colonial mode rnity. I also survey a brief history of film stars and celebrity culture i n colonial Korea and close on one case study of Moon Ye-bong (1917-1999)\, a famous actress during the colonial period who became a renowned star in postwar North Korea but was disavowed in the South\, further complicating the fractured nature of the historiography of Korean cinema.\n\n \n\n"Cut and Paste: Toward a Theory and Practice of Desktop Documentary" led by Ch arlotte Scurlock\, PhD candidate\, Film & Media Studies in the English Dep artment.\n\nLife in the 2020s is mediated largely through interactive digi tal screens (computers\, smartphones\, tablets\, et cetera)\, occupying in creasing space in activities associated with labor and leisure\, from the shift to remote work and education during the COVID-19 pandemic facilitate d by Zoom Communications to the colloquialization of phrases like doomscro lling and screentime. In the midst of this screen saturated culture\, film makers have explored ways of rendering the computer screen as a fertile pl atform for cinematic experimentation. One such output is the desktop docum entary\, or non-fictional films that use screen recording technology to tr eat the computer screen as both "camera lens and a canvas ... seek[ing] bo th to depict and question the ways we explore the world through the comput er screen" (Catherine Grant 2015). This talk will introduce my dissertatio n research\, which theorizes the desktop documentary in relation to two ea rlier cinematic practices: the long history of experimental found footage (or collage) filmmaking and the more contemporary scholarly practice of vi deographic criticism. Combining written scholarship with practice-based re search in the form of short desktop documentaries\, I reveal the intricaci es with which contemporary screen-based technologies reshape traditional u nderstandings of cinema and allow for a deeper understanding of online med ia cultures.

Sajawal (Channan Hanif)\, the husband-to-be\, has a prominent facial birthmark which has le ft him introverted and suspicious of a world that mocks him\, while his fu ture wife Zeba (Mamya Shajaffar) has a past filled with dead fiancés. Thi s heady tonal mash-up from Sarmad Sultan Khoosat takes some wildly unexpec ted turns\, from black comedy to surrealist horror. Lali is melodrama\, it is a story of possession\, and is it a mediation on marriage. Throughout\ , the film demonstrates an intoxicating and vividly uninhibited piece of f ilmmaking.\n\nOfficial Selection: Berlinale (2026) LAST-MODIFIED:20260911T183316Z LOCATION:Harris Theater URL:https://calendar.pitt.edu/event/screenshot-asia-film-festival-lali?utm _source=caldiscovery&utm_medium=ics&utm_campaign=pittsburgh-pa X-SOURCE-NAME:University of Pittsburgh Calendar X-SOURCE-URL:https://calendar.pitt.edu/department/athletics END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:Free Film Night DTSTART:20260917T230000Z DTEND:20260918T010000Z DTSTAMP:20260916T031027Z UID:6195-1789671600-1789678800@chapters.theprimetimersww.com CATEGORIES:film,free DESCRIPTION:Enjoy a free movie\, free parking and a free social time after wards.\n Calvary Episcopal hosts films third-Thursdays @ 7 PM @ Sept. thr u Dec.\n It’s @ 315 Shady Ave Pittsburgh 15206 – just 2 blocks from MLK Busway.\n Plenty of space @ the church lot w/entrances @ Shady Ave. & Marchand\n We’ll leave Fellowship Hall right after the film ends.
