This edited collection is the first book to offer a wide-ranging
examination of the interface between American independent film and
a converged television landscape that consists of terrestrial
broadcasters, cable networks and streaming providers, in which
independent film and television intersect in complex, multifaceted
and creative ways. The book covers the long history of continuities
and connections between the two sectors, as seen in the activities
of PBS, HBO or Sundance. It considers the movement of filmmakers
between indie film and TV such as Steven Soderberg, Rian Johnson,
the Duplass brothers, Joe Swanberg, Lynn Shelton and Gregg Araki;
details the confluence of aesthetic and thematic elements seen in
shows such as Girls, Breaking Bad, Master of None, or Glow; points
to a shared interest in regional sensibilities evident in shows
like One Mississippi or Fargo; and makes the case for documentaries
and web series as significant entities in this domain.
Collectively, the book builds a compelling picture of indie TV as a
significant feature of US screen entertainment in the twenty-first
century. This interdisciplinary landmark volume will be a go-to
reference for students and scholars of Television Studies, Film
Studies and Media Studies.
