In Ecocinema in the City, Murray and Heumann argue that urban
ecocinema both reveals and critiques visions of urban
environmentalism. The book emphasizes the increasingly
transformative power of nature in urban settings, explored in both
documentaries and fictional films such as Children Underground,
White Dog, Hatari! and Lives Worth Living. The first two
sections-"Evolutionary Myths Under the City" and "Urban
Eco-trauma"-take more traditional ecocinema approaches and
emphasize the city as a dangerous constructed space. The last two
sections-"Urban Nature and Interdependence" and "The Sustainable
City"-however, bring to life the vibrant relationships between
human and nonhuman nature. Ecocinema in the City provides a space
to explore these relationships, revealing how ecocinema shows that
both human and nonhuman nature can interact sustainably and thrive.
