Historical overview
Despite the fact that Ekran was not the first Slovene film magazine after the second world war (before it the Film gazette and Film magazine were published) at the time it was established writing about cinema was at its beginning. That's why the young team of cinefiles (V. Musek, T. Tršar, B. Šomen) that in 1962 took over the new film magazine had to lean on translated text mostly to introduce Slovene readers to the then current situation in world cinema. On the other hand they were among the first to promote new tendencies in the Yugoslav cinema of that time, influenced by the European new waves, mostly the so called black film (B. Hladnik, J. Pogačnik and Ž. Pavlović in Slovenia, A. Patrović, D. Makavejev and Ž. Žilnik in other parts of former Yugoslavia) - on the home front and internationaly.
The next important period in the history of Ekran were the 1980s when under the strong influence of the modern French film theory Ekran's writers (S. Žižek, M. Dolar, Z. Vrdlovec, S. Furlan, S. Pelko, A. Zupančič, etc.) started to merge high theory and popular culture - Lacan and Hollywood films. Their original approach to film studies triggered the golden period of the magazine Ekran as it's reputation considerably grew as at home as internationally. At that time Ekran, with S. Furlan as editor in chief, made a big step forward also in regard to its organizational structure. It was published regularly on a bimonthly basis, it introduced a book collection (Imago, dedicated to film theory) and an international colloquium of film theory called Autumn Film School.
Lately Ekran has been focusing on film production and film artists which work beyond the mainstream, world and independent cinema, reporting from film festivals and monitoring the Slovene film scene. Following the 'renovation' of Ekran in March 2006 the magazine introduced some new content, began publishing in colour (after 44 years of black&white) and invited some new film publicists to work with its editorial team; several foreign contributors also joined as supporting editors.
Ekran's other activities include the Autumn Film School, International Colloquium of Film Theory, and the Ekran 'Nursery' School of the Gaze that was launched in Winter 2006, offering screenings, lectures and discussions for young film critics.
