Indeed, the syntheses of the propaganda systems set up in Europe and the reports on the experiments carried out in the colonies reveal a number of recurring preconceptions: cinema as a vector of universally decipherable messages; cinema as a form of direct access to the viewer’s subconscious; cinema as a form of expression of a “European technological superiority”. À travers la comparaison des choix et des difficultés rencontrés par les colonisateurs britanniques, belges et français lors de la mise en place de systèmes de propagande, cet article vise à questionner une conception transnationale du medium cinématographique. En effet, les synthèses des systèmes de propagande mis en place en Europe et les rapports sur les expérimentations menées dans les colonies révèlent un certain nombre de préconceptions récurrentes : le cinéma comme vecteur d’un message universellement déchiffrable ; le cinéma comme forme d’accès direct au subconscient du spectateur ; le cinéma comme mode d’expression privilégié de la supériorité technologique européenne. |
