Contributors grapple with historiographic questions that cover film history from the pioneering era to the present day. Their scope and interests encompasses not only different kinds of filmmaking -- mainstream fiction, experimental, and documentary - but also practices -- publicity, journalism, distribution and exhibition -- seldom explored in the past." -- BOOK BLURBISBN: 9780252081187Contents: Searching for Sources, Rewriting Histories.

Political animals : the new feminist cinema / Sophie Mayer London ; New York: I.B. Tauris, 2016.
Call No: 744.7 MAYAuthor: Mayer, Sophie Edition: 2016Place: London ; New YorkPublisher: I.B. TaurisPubDate: 2016PhysDes: xii,260 : illustrated ; 23 cmSubject: FEMINISM AND THE CINEMA ; FEMININITY IN FILMS ; WOMEN AND THE CINEMA ; BELLE (UK, Amma Asante, 2013) ; FROZEN (US, Chris Buck & Jennifer Lee, 2013) ; BIGELOW, KATHRYN ; CAMPION, JANE ; VARDA, AGNES ; PERSEPOLIS (FR, Marjane Satrapi, 2007) Summary: Feminist filmmakers are hitting the headlines. The last decade has witnessed: the first Best Director Academy Award won by a woman; female filmmakers reviving, or starting, careers via analogue and digital television; women filmmakers emerging from Saudi Arabia, Palestine, Pakistan, South Korea, Paraguay, Peru, Burkina Faso, Kenya and The Cree Nation; a bold emergent trans cinema; feminist porn screened at public festivals; Sweden's A-Markt for films that pass the Bechdel Test; and Pussy Riot's online videos sending shockwaves around the world. A new generation of feminist filmmakers, curators and critics is not only influencing contemporary debates on gender and sexuality, but starting to change cinema itself, calling for a film world that is intersectional, sustainable, family-friendly and far-reaching. Political Animals argues that, forty years since Laura Mulvey's seminal essay 'Visual Pleasure and Narrative Cinema' identified the urgent need for a feminist counter-cinema, this promise seems to be on the point of fulfilment.
Forty years of a transnational, trans-generational cinema has given rise to conversations between the work of now well-established filmmakers such as Abigail Child, Sally Potter and Agnes Varda, twenty-first century auteurs including Kelly Reichardt and Lucretia Martel, and emerging directors such as Sandrine Bonnaire, Shonali Bose, Zeina Daccache, and Hana Makhmalbaf. A new and diverse generation of British independent filmmakers such as Franny Armstrong, Andrea Arnold, Amma Asante, Clio Barnard, Tina Gharavi, Sally El Hoseini, Carol Morley, Samantha Morton, Penny Woolcock, and Campbell X join a worldwide dialogue between filmmakers and viewers hungry for a new and informed point of view. Lovely, vigorous and brave, the new feminist cinema is a political animal that refuses to be domesticated by the persistence of everyday sexism, striking out boldly to claim the public sphere as its own. -- publisher's web siteISBN: 9781784533724
