The Cinema of Catherine Breillat (Hardcover)

In The Cinema of Catherine Breillat, Belot offers a detailed analysis of Breillat's past and recent films. Breillat is one of the most internationally renowned French women filmmakers whose notoriety is built on her explicit representation of women's sexuality. Most of her films rely on a female protagonist's personal and intimate search of her self, characterised by her sexual journey. Facing censorship and controversy, Breillat's films do not easily fit classification and place the viewer into an uncomfortable position. This study looks at Breillat as an independent cinema auteur entertaining a close relation with her films by exploring and positing women, from adolescence to adulthood, as sexual beings reflecting her films' identity emanating from Breillat's personal or intimate scenes.
