Lauantai 11:00–12:00 @ Luentosali D10a
From princesses to evil fairies to a whole host of the well-known fairy tale characters, we've seen them all on the big screen and the smaller one. Sometimes without entirely realizing that's what we're seeing. As we watch, the stories are changing to suit the audience and the culture, in ways that the Brothers Grimm could hardly foresee. Nina Niskanen will take you on a tour of fairy tales adapted to TV and movies over the years, focusing on the last 30 years in an effort to discover changing trends. Trigger Warning: the talk will discuss sexual assault.
