What was the cinema? What is it becoming today and what will be the future of the form and institution that was once cinema, in the wake of disruptive technologies and emergent socio-political conditions?’  This thematic issue brings together a number of essays by researchers from a variety of disciplinary and critical perspectives to reflect on these questions. They assess the impact of new trends and technologies, spaces and modes of consumption, aesthetic paradigms, piracy, etc., on this 20th-century institution that has played such a crucial role in defining the ‘modern’.
