Abstract

The AGE-C dataset results from a data-driven investigation into ageing and gender in contemporary European cinema (2014-2023) – an intersectional approach to film representation and film labour so far missing – intervening in the mostly qualitative field of ageing and film with quali-quantitative data from 9 European territories. The dataset collects data on fiction, documentary and animation feature films in relation to filmmakers and ageing actors’ biographical details. It also includes data on roles, marketing, nationality, genres, film awards, documentary subjects and film characters. An innovative tag system relates characters and films to topics in gerontology, describing their narrative and thematic content, as well. The dataset also factors in awards and film festivals, illuminating the gender gap affecting 50+ actors. The data set was last updated on October 2, 2025.
