<span style="font-size: 12pt;">Despite the flourishing of work in recent decades on the intersection between film and philosophy, contemporary theorists have focused mostly on varieties of fictional narrative film. Less attention has been paid to one of the
most creative and dynamic areas of global cinema: documentary and non-fictional film.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; line-height: normal; background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial;">

<span style="font-size: 12pt;">This workshop, the third organised by Dr Robert Sinnerbrink as part of his ARC Future Fellowship project (‘Cinematic Ethics: Exploring Ethical Experience through Film’), is dedicated to exploring the intersection of ethics and
documentary, examining how documentary raises and examines important ethical questions and political problems through creative forms of filmmaking. Moving beyond documentary theory’s traditional focus on ethical issues pertaining to film production, practice,
and reception, the participants in this workshop aim to explore the ways in which contemporary documentary and non-fiction film can use all the potentials of the cinematic medium to elicit complex forms of moral-ethical experience. Documentary, we aim to show,
can thereby open up powerful new ways of thinking through the idea of cinema as ethics.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;">The workshop will preceded (on <b>Wednesday May 17</b>) by a screening plus panel discussion of Kathryn Millard’s award-winning documentary, <a href="http://shockroomfilm.com/" target="_blank"><span style="color:blue">Shock Room</span></a>, a
critical examination of the famous Milgram psychological experiments, showing how they are more dubious than we think (we're not as blindly obedient to authority and willing to inflict pain on others as the experiment suggested). Filmmaker and academic Kathryn
Millard will present on the film during the workshop itself. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
