Film science makes the theoretical, analytical and historical preoccupation with film, its aesthetics, dramaturgy and history the starting point of its professional practice. She analyzes and interprets her objects by reconstructing the questions to which the image solutions of a film are the answers. The study of film studies includes lessons from the areas of film analysis, film history, film aesthetics and film theory. In addition, issues of media change (literature on film) and dramaturgy and narratology (such as genres in cinema and television) are treated. The interpretation of cultural patterns in films and the relationship between tradition and aesthetic innovation are further subject areas. The students of the subject gain insight into the analytical and methodological foundations of film studies as well as the history, aesthetics and theory of film. They should be trained to analyze, interpret and critically evaluate audiovisual phenomena scientifically.
As part of the integrated study program "Culture-Theater-Film", students of film studies attend theater science and cultural anthropology / folklore events and thus learn how to deal with an extended concept of culture and media in a transdisciplinary way.
