Summary/Abstract: The article gives an account of the First Congress of Film and Media Scholars that was held in Kamień Śląski in the beginning of June 2013. The congress was organised by the department of Film and Media Studies, of the Institute of Culture and Interdisciplinary Studies, of the University of Silesia, in cooperation with the National Centre for Culture, The “Initiative” Association (Stowarzyszenie Inicjatywa), and the film institution “Silesia Film” from Katowice. It was the first such event in Poland that allowed for an in-depth discussion about the state of film and media studies today. The variety of presentations within six panel sessions (History of film and cinema, Methodologies and theories of audiovisual media today, Moving pictures in anthropological perspective, New media – new research challenges, and varia) confirms the width of issues with which contemporary film and media studies scholars must deal with.
