Description
This issue of the Millennium Film Journal, “Round and Round,” is the first part of our yearlong engagement with the theme of Circulation.
Half a decade after COVID reshaped both the theatrical and online distribution landscape, we are faced with new, more material questions to ponder. Our approach to these questions is open-ended by design. Circulation evokes several scales at once—blood flowing through veins, bodies moving through cities and countries, capital and information disseminating through nation states in a global economy. Movement is the only constant, the fall of old regimes and the rise of new ones, ad infinitum—film is no exception.
Across its essays, reviews, and artist pages, this issue reflects on the evolving life of moving images and the communities that sustain them.
Excerpted from Vince Warne’s Introduction to MFJ 83 “Round and Round” (Spring 2026).
