Biography
My research areas include global media industries, film festival and exhibition practices, third world and postcolonial cinemas. I am particularly interested in studying emerging practices of third-world artists and filmmakers, and how the role of sponsorship, production, circulation, and exhibition sites create local and global film cultures.
