Theorizing Colonial Cinema is a millennial retrospective on the
entangled intimacy between film and colonialism from film's global
inception to contemporary legacies in and of Asia. The volume
engages new perspectives by asking how prior discussions on film
form, theory, history, and ideology may be challenged by centering
the colonial question rather than relegating it to the periphery.
To that end, contributors begin by excavating little-known archives
and perspectives from the colonies as a departure from a prevailing
focus on Europe's imperial histories and archives about the
colonies. The collection pinpoints various forms of devaluation and
misrecognition both in and beyond the region that continue to
relegate local voices to the margins. This pathbreaking study on
global film history advances prior scholarship by bringing together
an array of established and new interdisciplinary voices from film
studies, Asian studies, and postcolonial studies to consider how
the present is continually haunted by the colonial past.
