> On a weekly basis, the Melbourne Cinémathèque screens films of

> would not receive a public screening.

> In order to provide a critical context for these screenings,
> "annotations" on films have traditionally been published in one
> form or another. Since April 2000, "CTEQ Annotations on Film" have
> been published electronically in Senses of Cinema and in hard copy
> for those without Internet access. The purpose of these annotations
> is to encourage appreciation of a film by highlighting details of
> its history, providing a "reading" of its aesthetic and so on.
