Mathew Abbott presents a powerful new film-philosophy through the
cinema of Iranian director Abbas Kiarostami. Mathew Abbott argues
that Kiarostami's films carry out cinematic thinking: they do not
just illustrate pre-existing philosophical ideas, but do real
philosophical work. Crossing the divide between analytic and
continental philosophy, he draws on Ludwig Wittgenstein, Stanley
Cavell, John McDowell, Alice Crary, Noel Carroll, Giorgio Agamben,
and Martin Heidegger, bringing out the thinking at work in
Kiarostami's most recent films: Taste of Cherry, The Wind Will
Carry Us, ABC Africa, Ten, Five, Shirin, Certified Copy, and Like
Someone in Love.
