This edited volume focuses on South and East Asian cinema,
exploring transnational connections between these film industries
from the point of view of narratives, topics and themes, as well as
in terms of co-productions. At a time of resurgent nationalisms and
increasing fortifications of (actual and symbolic) borders, the
chapters in this book explore cinematic work that challenge these
boundaries and promote a reflection on the social, cultural,
political and economic value of international exchanges and
collaborations within the context of Asia. Indeed, notwithstanding
the aforementioned tendency to implement border policing and the
revival of nationalist sentiments, South and East Asian cinemas
retain a strong transnational character, as not only genres and
themes are borrowed and exchanged across borders, but also the
popularity of the Indian, Chinese and Korean film industries extend
well beyond their national borders - within Asia as well as in the
West. The chapters in this book were originally published as a
special issue of Transnational Screens.
