Appendix.8 aResponding to a lack of studies on the film festival's role in the production of cultural memory, this book explores different parameters through which film festivals shape our reception and memories of films. By focusing on two Asian American film festivals, this book analyzes the frames of memory that festivals create for their films, constructed through and circulated by the various festival media. It further establishes that festival locations--both cities and screening venues--play a significant role in shaping our experience of films. Finally, it shows that festivals produce performances which help guide audiences towards certain readings and direct the film's role as a memory object. Bringing together film festival studies and memory studies, 'Asian American Film Festivals' offers a mixed-methods approach with which to explore the film festival phenomenon, thus shedding light on the complex dynamics of frames, locations, and performances shaping the festival's memory practices. It also draws attention to the understudied genre of Asian American film festivals, showing how these festivals actively engage in constructing and performing a minority group's collective identity and memory. 4aFilm festivalszUnited States. 4aAsian Americans in motion pictures. 4aCollective memoryzUnited States. 4aAsian AmericansxPsychology. 0aMedia and cultural memory ;v28.  2lcccBK  00104070aPNLIBbPNLIBcGENd2021-06-17oPN1993.42.U5 H64 2021pPNLIB21060765r2021-06-17w2021-06-17yBK  c951d951
