This book is one of the first to integrate psychological and
medical anthropology with the methodologies of visual anthropology,
specifically ethnographic film. It discusses and complements the
work presented in Afflictions: Culture and Mental Illness in
Indonesia, the first film series on psychiatric disorders in the
developing world, in order to explore pertinent issues in the
cross-cultural study of mental illness and advocate for the unique
role film can play both in the discipline and in participants'
lives. Through ethnographically rich and self-reflexive discussions
of the films, their production, and their impact, the book at once
provides theoretical and practical guidance, encouragement, and
caveats for students and others who may want to make such films.
