The role of the traditional ethnographer is changing as the perspectives and epistemologies of indigenous peoples have taken on central significance in the discipline, challenging earlier representations and implicit “us versus them” constructs. In order to create a platform for indigenous voices to address issues from indigenous perspectives, the third volume of the ethnographic film series is dedicated to indigenous filmmakers.
Volume 4 provides a space for visual anthropologists of today to showcase and disseminate their most compelling work. The focus is on curating award-winning titles from contemporary ethnographic film festivals.
