الأهداف

• is course aims at getting students introduced to film and documentaries done in the field of archaeology and Cultural Heritage. The course introduces students into film critique and particularly those focused on cultural heritage as well as documentaries made for cultural heritage purposes. This course investigates the different genres, styles, and representations of documentary film. The focus will be about how cultural heritage has been represented in the west in films and documentaries, versus how was it expressed from indigenous communities. This will be carried out through screenings of several works that will be critiqued orally and in writing. The course will discuss the bias of the film maker, how s/he sees the culture heritage they portray and how different is it from indigenous films and their biases as well. The course will also discuss flat arguments versus more complex ones and how film makers claim to film the truth and reality and how objective this can be. The course will expose the students to the jolts and bolts of making a film and a documentary; how they can be successfully part of a film team using their academic knowledge in the field of cultural heritage..
