Kineuropa: Cinema as A Reflection of European Identity

Kineuropa — from the German Kino, “cinema,” and the ancient Greek kinesis, “motion” — reflects the profound, dynamic relationship between film and the European spirit.
-
In this unique collection of essays by authors from diverse backgrounds and six different countries, the Seventh Art of film is explored beyond the planes of entertainment and propaganda, rediscovered as a civilizational force for identity and creativity.
-
From the mythic roots of storytelling to the philosophical and symbolic dimensions of modern film, Kineuropa revisits how European cinema has emerged from an ancient continuum of theatre, literature, religion, and visual art, shaping collective imagination over the centuries and ever endeavoring to seize the Zeitgeist.
-
In the “Netflix era” of globalized media’s dissolution of culture and banalization of film, Kineuropa calls for reviving cinema to foster authentic European visions of the past, present, and future.
