<p class="MsoPlainText">Every day hundreds of people travel back and forth between southern countries, including Australia, Argentina, Brazil, Chile, New Zealand, Indonesia, Timor Leste and South Africa; and with these people travel cultures, experiences, memories
and images. The Cinema at the End of the World International Conference takes on a transversal South-South approach to the study of visual culture in transnational, transcultural and geopolitical contexts. It seeks to create conditions for the generation,
sharing and circulation of new knowledge that is both southern and about the South as a specific kind of material and imaginary territory (or territories). It does so through the study of the southern hemisphere’s screen cultures, addressing the broad spectrum
of cultural expression in both traditional and new screen media, including film, television, video, digital, interactive, and online and portable technologies.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">Proposals are invited for papers that explore intersections of screen works from countries south of the Equator and one or more of the following themes:<o:p></o:p></p>
