Film cannot only provide an engaging, authentic and purposeful context for learning but it can also be used as a vehicle to improve pupils' listening, reading, writing and speaking skills. In addition, film lends itself to nurture what the Council of Europe (2001) suggests could be seen as the "fifth skills". That is, a key skill for living in our diverse, world, showing its potential for supporting intercultural understanding and cross-curricular learning and teaching.

But how can we make our teaching ARPS: authentic, relevant, purposeful and stimulating, whilst still ensuring students are getting to grips with complex grammatical structures and rules? In this session, we’ll explore examples of good practice, in particular through film, to teach grammar in context, focussing on developing their grammatical awareness and explicit grammar knowledge in the target language, whilst still allowing students to improve all their skills and learn grammar in a fun and motivating way.

Finally, it exemplifies how authentic resources can be used to facilitate learning beyond the specifications of the MFL curriculum and towards a critical engagement with language and our own and other cultures. In other words, I argue for the importance of film as a platform for an engagement in social issues with the learners to open up a dialogue about our global world, using the target language as a vehicle for discussion.

An experimental short that seeks to question our use of the big three words that are supposed to encompass our love for another person by making use of a key idea by the interdisciplinary thinker Luce Irigaray.
"A Letter Of Love To You" (UK, 2016): Inspired by Luce Irigaray’s philosophical enquiry into love, this is a short meditation on the three words used to express love, to explore the importance, usage and influence of language for our understanding of relationships, gender and power. It forms part of the wider practice-as-research part of Judith’s PhD project and is a zero budget short film.
In the aftermath of a US election in which a woman's historic candidacy was at times overshadowed by discussions of her age, appearance and 'likeability', it's more important than ever to fight the mainstream media stereotyping that tries to box us into a particular image of womanhood. The panel will explore how we can make media representations of women more diverse and equal; how women experience their own representation; how images of the self can heal and empower; and how we can counteract the harms of the 'porn culture' that surrounds us.
