Journal of African Cinemas (JAC)

The Journal of African Cinemas explores the interactions of visual and verbal narratives in films from and about Africa, no matter where they are made. It encourages studies about production, reception and audiences, interpretation and theory, and history and technology. The journal recognises the shifting paradigms that have defined and continue to define African cinemas in relation to cinema everywhere, within diverse African languages and cultures. The editors invite papers on the perception and identity/identities of Africa and its peoples represented in film, in isolation or relation to other cinemas globally. The journal aims to create a forum for debate that will promote inter-disciplinarity between cinema and other visual and rhetorical forms of representation.
