dekalog

The Dekalog series is a new list of bi-annual publications, released each March and September, dedicated to presenting serious and insightful criticism on a wide range of subjects across the full spectrum of contemporary global cinema.

Each issue is a guest-edited specially-themed volume including the writings of a diverse collection of authors, from academic scholars, film critics, filmmakers and producers, and personalities involved in all kinds of institutionalised cinephilia such as film festival directors and film museum curators.

The intention, therefore, is to include the multiple voices of informed and complementary commentators on all things cinematic in dedicated volumes on subjects of real critical interest, especially those not usually served by established periodicals or book-length publications. 

In addition to specially-commissioned essays, each issue also includes an exclusive ‘Dekalog Interview’ with a leading figure related to the theme in question, and a ‘Dekalog Re-View’ section where readers’ feedback will be edited by respective guest editors and published in subsequent editions. All readers are therefore very much invited to participate in the discussions by contacting any of the series’ guest editors at dekalog@wallflowerpress.co.uk.
