What’s the future of film‪?‬ The Cultural Frontline

This week, as part of a series of special programmes, we look to the future of cinema and TV.
One of the biggest changes to our cultural landscape has been the transformation in the way so many of us watch films.
Cinemas around the world have been off limits and streaming services have never been popular. Production is being drastically reimagined to include social distancing and coronavirus prevention measures. Plus in the light of the resurgent Black Lives Matter movement calls to make the global film industry truly diverse and inclusive are growing ever louder.
We ask what’s next for film. How can cinema and the film industry be reinvented in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic?
Tina is joined by award winning American-Iranian writer director Maryam Keshavarz, Nigerian activist and documentarian Pamela Adie, Swiss choreographer and virtual reality pioneer Gilles Jobin and in London the British director Francis Annan and film critic Rhianna Dhillon.
