		<title>CFP &#8211; THE VOICE-OVER (8.1)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[During the past three decades, studying the voice has intrigued many film theorists and thinkers. Arguing that the cinematic image is an audiovisual space largely structured according to human body and voice, some scholars (Mary Ann Doane, Sarah Kozloff, and Michel Chion, among others) have been drawn to the various manifestations and mysterious connotations of the non-visualized voice. If off-screen voices foster a need to categorize and perhaps control their elusive nature, then the voice-over raises some challenging questions about &#8230; <a href="http://cinephile.ca/cfp-the-voice-over-8-1/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<title>CFP &#8211; Contemporary Realism (7.2)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Realism appears to have reached a critical juncture in recent years: digital technology has all but usurped the photographic medium, rendering the indexical nature of photographic images obsolete (Doane 2002; Rodowick 2007); &#8220;reality&#8221; television and on-line exhibitionism have proliferated audiovisual culture, trivializing the fidelity of documentary realism and its particular mode of truth telling; and social realism has gradually detached itself from the socio-political convictions that once defined it, instead looking inward towards private/familial issues removed from the public sphere &#8230; <a href="http://cinephile.ca/contemporary-realism-issue-72/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<title>CFP &#8211; Horror Ad Nauseam (6.2)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The horror genre continues to regenerate itself ad nauseam. On one hand, the genre may be liberating itself from the weight of many formulaic straight-to-video films that have tainted its image over the past two decades, re-imagining itself through the quintessential films that defined horror cinema in the 1970s and 80s. On the other hand, the genre has perhaps reached a moment of hyper-intertextualization to the point where it has literally mined itself dry of new ideas.

		<description><![CDATA[‘Far From Hollywood’ &#8211; Alternative World Cinema (Vol. 5, No 1: Spring 2009) &#8230;in this, our 5th anniversay issue, we set out to navigate the murky and uncharted depths of ‘alternative cinema’. But carving out an epistemology of this amorphous cinema is no small endeavour-and what do we mean by ‘alternative cinema’ anyway? On the one hand, it is always evolving, always repositioning itself outside mainstream modes of representation: once the mainstream appropriates elements of alternative style, new configurations naturally &#8230; <a href="http://cinephile.ca/vol-5-no-1-and-vol-5-no-2-now-online/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>
