Provides new insights into German-language cinema around 1968 and
its relationship to the period's epoch-making cultural and
political happenings. The epoch-making revolutionary period
universally known in Germany as '68 can be argued to have predated
that year and to have extended well into the 1970s. It continues to
affect German and Austrian society and culture to this day. Yet
while scholars have written extensively about 1968 and the cinema
of other countries, relatively little sustained scholarly attention
has thus far been paid to 1968 and West German, East German, and
Austrian cinemas. Now, five decades later, Celluloid Revolt sets
out to redress that situation, generating new insights into what
constituted German-language cinema around 1968 and beyond.
Contributors engage a range of cinemas, spanning experimental and
avant-garde cinema, installations and exhibits; short films,
animated films, and crime films; collectively produced cinemas,
feminist films, and Arbeiterfilme (workers' films); as well as
their relationship to cinemas of other countries, such as French
cinema verite and US direct cinema. Contributors: Marco Abel,
Tilman Baumgartel, Madeleine Bernstorff, Timothy Scott Brown,
Michael Dobstadt, Sean Eedy, Thomas Elsaesser, IanFleishman,
Christina Gerhardt, Lisa Haegele, Randall Halle, Priscilla Layne,
Ervin Malakaj, Kalani Michell, Evelyn Preuss, Patricia Anne
Simpson, Fabian Tietke, Andrew Stefan Weiner. Christina Gerhardt is
Associate Professor of German and Film Studies at the University of
Hawai'i at Manoa. Marco Abel is Professor of English and Film
Studies at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln.
