Claire Denis is one of France's most acclaimed and original
filmmakers. Since her remarkable debut success with "Chocolat
"(1986), she has produced an impressive series of features which
have been intriguing, visually striking, and often highly
controversial--including "Beau Travail" (2000) and "Trouble Every
Day" (2001). Beugnet provides a thematic and stylistic framework
within which to consider Denis' work, as well as a comprehensive
analysis of individual films. She highlights the resonance of
Denis' films in relation to ongoing debates about French national
identity and culture, and issues of postcolonial identity,
alienation and transgression, as well as examining their
exploration of the interface between sexuality, desire and
sensuality.This is an essential introduction to Denis, and a
sophisticated and illuminating study of her work to date.
