About Far Flung Families in Film:

Research Context

The project builds on previous research I have undertaken as Principal Investigator of an international Research Network Migrant and Diasporic Cinema in Contemporary Europe. The Network was funded by the AHRC under the Diasporas, Migration & Identities Programme between 2006 and 2008. The Network brought together researchers, filmmakers, policy makers and representatives from the cultural sector. It explored how the films of migrant and diasporic filmmakers have redefined our understanding of European identity as constructed and narrated in European cinema. During the past two decades the cultural spaces occupied by migrants have shifted from the ‘subnational’ to the ‘transnational’ as representations of migrant identities and experiences have been articulated in a variety of media. The growing presence of migrant and diasporic cultures within Europe and on European screens calls for a re-evaluation of the established notion of national cinema in a global context.

Publications on the diasporic family in cinema

The findings of this research have been published in a monograph entitled Far-flung Families in Film: The Diasporic Family in Contemporary European Cinema (Edinburgh University Press, 2013). This book  provides original analyses of diasporic feature films that offer sustained discussions of the family, including such well-known examples as Bend It Like Beckham and East is East, as well as productions confined to the art house and film festival circuits: Le thé au harem d’ArchimèdeLa graine et le mulletBullet Boy and Die Fremde. Internationally significant Hollywood and Bollywood films in which the diasporic family takes centre stage provide further comparative contexts and reference points
