Mediating a pluralized ‘we’: Amateur first-person filmmaking in Gabriela Pichler’s Amateurs

Abstract

This article analyses the incorporation of amateur and first-person filmmaking in Gabriela Pichler’s comedy drama Amatörer (Amateurs) (2018) as a contradiction and alternative to the professional economies of media that tend to reinforce middle-class Swedish Whiteness and silence the experiences of minority populations of divergent races, ethnicities and social class.
