Film und kulturelle Erinnerung: Plurimediale Konstellationen - 9

It is only through certain forms of social use that media become "Media of collective memory". The phenomenon of a "Remembrance film", too (e.g.Das Leben der Anderen,Hotel Ruanda,On connaît la chanson) only comes about in a plurimedial context with its incorporation into a complex systemic media network that makes it into a remembrance film through various forms of reference. The volume analyses film using the methodology of studies in cultural memory to reveal the functioning of these constellations.
