The 32nd European Meeting of INEDITS is organized by the Cinémathèque de Saint-Étienne, from November 8 to 10, 2022 in the framework of the centenary of the first regional Cinémathèque created in France. This anniversary coincides with that of the 9.5 format invented by Charles Pathé in 1922, which will be particularly honored during these meetings.
At a time when the amateur film archive is reaching the screens of commercial cinemas as a subject in its own right, when university research is legitimizing amateur cinema(s) as a scientific object, many « alternative » spaces for artistic creation and distribution are developing. The Cinémathèque of Saint-Étienne proposes to question the new ways of looking at this object of popular culture that is amateur film. And reciprocally, the theme « Towards new perspectives », proposed for these 32nd INEDITS meetings, wants to question the new historical, social and political insights that this particular cinema (of) our history brings.
