For this, the fourth issue of Alphaville, we have opted for an open theme. Previous issues—dealing with topics as diverse as noteworthy trends in European cinema; space and time in film; and sound, voice and music in cinema, respectively—stemmed from (admittedly fluid) pre-defined ideas; Issue 5 will apply a similar thematically focused approach to the figure and concept of the interstice. Here, however, the challenge was not to offer an issue-wide analysis of specific themes per se, but instead to present a thought-provoking engagement with cinematic matters deemed most pressing by the contributions of our authors.
