Opis

Drawing on case studies of films including Charlie Kaufman's 'Synecdoche, New York', Nuri Bilge Ceylan's 'Climates' and John Akomfrah's 'The Nine Muses', this books asks to what extent is politics shaping art cinema? And, in turn, could art cinema possibly affect the political structure of the world as we know it?
