The focus of this class is how urban conflict is expressed through art via the medium of film. As such, we will look at two broad categories of conflict-as-art in film: those in which filmmakers use film as an art form (with varying levels of success) to capture and express conflict within urban communities; and those in which filmmakers use film to document how urban and street art (primarily music and dance) is an expression of community-based conflict.
