Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

This journal publishes analyses of films and other media, focusing on themes of ageing, gender, and environmental concerns. Articles examine how cinematic narratives and visual strategies represent aging bodies, the role of older characters, and the societal implications of aging populations. The journal also explores ecological themes, including climate change, environmental destruction, and human relationships with nature, often through an intermedial or ecocritical lens. Specific attention is given to how these themes intersect with gender, cultural representation, and historical contexts.
