Since 2007 Mia Hansen-Love has directed a series of meditative film
dramas about families, love, vulnerability and growing up, all of
them exceptionally attentive to film's ability to convey the
passing of time, separation and loss. As the first book-length
study of the films of Mia Hansen-Love, this volume introduces her
cinema to both an academic and a general readership. Exploring her
move from acting, via criticism, to directing, the book first
investigates the complexity of her situation as a female auteur
based in France. With detailed readings of her films up to Maya
(2018), it then examines the precariousness of their families,
their emphasis on vulnerability, failure, adversity and resilience,
the particular candour of Hansen-Love's filming style, and the
vital parts played by music and time in her cinema. It concludes
that her cinema may best be regarded as a thoroughly contemporary
one, distinguished by a tendency to transcendence that is both
ethical and aesthetic.
