Cíle předmětu
This course aims at familiarizing participants with the Canadian feature film production from the late Nineteen-Sixties to the present. Using a body of critically acclaimed films, the course is designed to enhance students’ interpretive skills and to provide them with relevant knowledge concerning the production, distribution, consumption and reception of Canadian feature films in Canada.
The successful participants will become aware of the variety and quality of Canadian feature film production and gain relevant insights into the development of the Canadian film industry, criticism and film scholarship. In addition to studying representative works by major Canadian filmmakers, students will be invited to consider a variety of wider contextual issues. In other words the course provides not only opportunity for close textual analysis, but also for assessment of a variety of social, political, and cultural circumstances that the films result from and reflect.

Výukové metody
The course is based on individual preparation, regular attendance of the biweekly seminars, and regular participation in the online discussions. Every week you are expected to watch one feature film and do the assigned reading. During the even weeks, when no seminars take place, each student is expected to get involved in the online discussion about the respective film (or reading) on the program. The students wishing to successfully complete the course are expected to view all the main items on the viewing list, read all the assigned reading, and prepare a presentation (either an online or in-class one) and actively participate in the discussions in class.
Metody hodnocení
Your grade will be based on your performance in class (in-class quizzes, presentations, involvement in both in-class and online discussions - 50%) and on the assessment of your essay (minimum 2100 words – 50%). Students who miss more than one biweekly session and/or students who fail to regularly contribute to the online discussions automatically fail the class.
