Triangulating a discussion between film, the viewer and a wider frame of life: Reflections on a life in film education

In this article, Mirjana Borčić – one of the foremost voices within Slovenian film pedagogy – reflects upon an international life within film education on both a practical and a theoretical level. A particular focus is placed upon the central role of discussion within film education, in shaping and developing the subjective experiences young people have of watching cinema. Finally, some concrete proposals are shared as to how one might best approach a classroom-based discussion with young people, centred around the experience of watching films.
