Conference “Exploring the Past and Future of Audiovisual Media in the Baltic Sea Region: Archives, Digital Platforms, Researchers and Spectators”

From 6-8 June 2024 at the cinema K.Suns (Elizebetes Str. 83/85) will be held the IX Baltic Sea Region Film History Conference. The conference is an annual international event that offers a platform for discussions on the past and present of film culture of the Baltic Sea Region. The first conference took place in 2014 in Tallinn, Estonia, but from 2019 the conference became mobile, now alternating between three Baltic countries. In 2024 it will return to Riga for the second time, and will be hosted by the Latvian Academy of Culture, Baltic Audiovisual Archival Council, and LAC Riga Film Museum. The IX conference will address a dual, interrelated focus: the histories of audiovisual collections within the region, and the burgeoning impact of digital technologies on facilitating access to these collections.
