Where to draw the line? Book launch of Carnal Cinema Vol 1 at Glasgow University March 19.

Thursday, 19 March 2026, 5 p.m – University of Glasgow – with writer Andrew Lowes (@andrewlowes), cartoonist Éric Dubois, respondent Kate Taylor and Nic Wistreich (@nicol).

The newest book from the Stirling Maxwell Centre in partnership with Netribution – Carnal Cinema: The Forbidden Interviews, Volume 1–  takes the Stirling Maxwell Centre in a new direction, blurring humour, cartoons and commentary to revisit the recent history of a much transformed film industry.

At the turn of the millennium, Shetland-based filmmaker Andrew Lowes wrote a series of cutting satirical interviews with familiar-yet-imagined figures from across the film world for online indie film publication Netribution. https://carnalcine.ma’s cartoons were each illustrated by French artist Éric Dubois while on sabbatical in Glasgow in 2006, and together capture a brief moment of Hollywood’s last days before streaming, social media and smart phones change everything.
