This volume engages new films and modes of scholarly research in
Arab cinema, and older, often neglected films and critical topics,
while theorizing their structural relationship to contemporary
developments in the Arab world. The volume considers the
relationship of Arab cinema to transnational film production,
distribution, and exhibition, in turn recontextualizing the works
of acknowledged as well as new directorial figures, and
country-specific phenomena. New documentary and experimental
practices are referenced and critiqued, while commercial cinema is
covered both as an industrial product and as one of several
instances of contestation. The volume thus showcases the breadth
and depth of Arab film culture and its multilayered connections to
local conditions, regional affiliations, and the tendencies and
aesthetics of global cinema.
