Description

This second instalment of the Mobile Bodies, Travelling Theories webinar series will examine the ways that film and television can inform our understanding of borderland formation in the Öresund and Gibraltar regions. Pei-Sze Chow, will draw from her research on Daniel Dencik’s short film Out as well as the award-winning Swedish Television series Bron/Broen (The Bridge) – a police-thriller portrayed through the Swedish detective Saga Norén and her Danish counterpart crisscrossing the Öresund Bridge in pursuit of criminal masterminds. Our second contribution will be a discussion with Randa Maroufi about her film Bab Sebta – an intimate portrait of the infrastructural, sociological and psychological dimensions of border-crossing between the Spanish exclave of Ceuta and Morocco.
