As a small nation cinema, Finnish film culture has, even at its most nationalistic, always been attached to developments in other film producing nations in terms of production and distribution as well as genres and aesthetics. Recent developments in film theory offer exciting new approaches and methodologies for the study of transnational phenomena in the field of film culture, both past and present. The authors employ a wide range of cutting edge methodologies in order to address the major issues involved in transnational approaches to film culture. Until recently, much of this research has focused on globalization and questions related to diasporic cinema while transnational issues related to small nation film cultures have been marginalized. This study focuses on how small nation cinemas have faced the dilemma of contributing to the construction and maintenance of national culture and identity, while responding to audience tastes largely shaped by foreign cinemas. With Finland’s intriguing political placement between East and West, along with the high portion of film history preserved in Finnish archives, this thoroughly contextualized multidisciplinary analysis of Finnish film history serves as an illuminating case study of the transnational aspects of small nation cinemas.Palgrave European Film and Media Studies,2634-615XMotion picturesFinlandMotion picturesEuropean influencesMedia Studieshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/412000Film Historyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/413070European Cinema and TVhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/413060FinlandfastHistory.fastMotion picturesMotion picturesEuropean influences.Media Studies.Film History.European Cinema and TV.302.23Bacon Henry1957-.edthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtBOOK9910148574403321Finnish Cinema2531514UNINA
