This book presents the bold and original proposal to replace the
general appellation of 'world cinema' with the more substantive
concept of 'realist cinema'. Veering away from the usual focus on
modes of reception and spectatorship, it locates instead cinematic
realism in the way films are made. The volume is structured across
three innovative categories of realist modes of production:
'noncinema', or a cinema that aspires to be life itself;
'intermedial passages', or films that incorporate other artforms as
a channel to historical and political reality; and 'total cinema',
or films moved by a totalising impulse, be it towards the total
artwork, total history or universalising landscapes. Though mostly
devoted to recent productions, each part starts with the analysis
of foundational classics, which have paved the way for future
realist endeavours, proving that realism is timeless and inherent
in cinema from its origin.
