Our Network is currently trying to compile a list of terms which describe migrant and diasporic cinema, as well as related terms, such as French beur cinema, cinéma de métissage, Kino der Fremde, British Asian cinema, etc. in different languages. Some terms are already listed under “Glossary” on this web site.

If you are aware of any other terms used to describe films made by migrant or diasporic filmmakers or representing the experience of migrant/diasporic communities in other European languages, please contribute to this discussion forum.

Many thanks.
