Watching across generations – comparing the memories and experiences of Bulgarian film viewers
Watching across generations – comparing the memories and experiences of Bulgarian film viewers

Summary/Abstract: The article examines the memories of different generations of Bulgarian viewers relating to the changing programming, distribution, spaces and technologies for watching films, ways of access and social aspects linked to film viewing. They symbolically delineate individual and group identities, help to rethink the definition of different generations, and reveal connections across seemingly dissimilar historical periods and ages. The memories of the participants are contextualised not only in relation to official information on the development of the film market in Bulgaria, but also with regard to deeply personal experiences of spatial, social and cultural circumstances.
