Intimacy, Sexuality and Moving Images - Course

The course is divided into different parts. In front of the camera and behind the camera. Photo, clip, sound. We will, among other things, examine the images themselves, representation, and how method acting and pre-film work affect the outcome.

We will watch films, read poetry and fiction and theoretical texts that deal with intimacy and sex. In the course we examine, discuss and explore possibilities and limitations with intimacy and moving images.

A few years ago Sweden introduced application and tuition fees for higher education. The level of the study fees depends on which course/programme they are for, and the level is set in order to cover the actual costs of the course/programme in question. SKH has some possibilities of offering scholarships that cover the whole study fee or that subsidise it.

If you are required to pay an application fee, the Swedish Council for Higher Education needs to receive your payment by the last date forpaying the tuition fee. The application fee is SEK 900. If you are required to pay the application fee and the Swedish Council for Higher Education has not received your payment by the last date for paying the tuition fee, they will not process your application.

The tuition fee for the courses is 81 750 SEK.
