Reviews

"Mette Hjort opens up an entirely new area of study in film and media studies by considering not only how film practice is taught in different parts of the world but why film practice is taught - giving light to social/cultural aesthetics and the political value of practice-based media education. The collection sets up a rich comparative structure that allows us to discover a whole new picture of youth activism and media training in different parts of the world." - Janine Marchessault, Canada Research Chair in Art and Digital Media, York University, Canada
