The identity of European cinema, like the identity of Europe
itself, is multiple, complex, and fascinating. Providing both a
general survey of contemporary European cinema production,
distribution and exhibition and detailed critical analysis of
specific films, directors, and national cinemas, this volume offers
a stimulating and thought-provoking contribution to current film
debate.
While the book's critical essays offer keen insight into the
complex identities of European cinema, its combination of breadth
and detail, and its interdisciplinary focus and background ensure
its wider relevance to anyone interested in questions of
contemporary culture and European affairs in general. Its stylistic
clarity and freedom from jargon make it readable and accessible.
The essays have been written by respected academics working in a
number of disciplines including Film and Media Studies, Modern
Languages, and Cultural Studies.
Topics include questions of memory and identity; filmic
autobiography and first-person narration; cultural identity;
peripheral voices; popular film and political film. Individual
directors, and different national cinemas, including those of
France, Germany, Northern Ireland, Russia, Scotland and Spain, are
viewed in a wider pan- European context.
