The role of space and place in the creation of visual narratives
constitutes one of the most dynamic and exciting debates in
contemporary film studies. How does film construct space? What are
the spatial codes and strategies that it uses? What is the
relationship between space and time in film? How do spatial
constructs enable us to understand new concepts of identity and the
politics and geographies of exile and displacement? Such questions,
whose importance to contemporary film and culture is fundamental,
are explored in wide-ranging, challenging essays that re-evaluate
and extend recent theoretical debate in relation to the regional
and national cinemas of Europe. Alongside critical essays by
scholars of international repute the book contains original
contributions by practising film directors Characterised by its
interdisciplinary, cross-national focus, it is thematically
structured to provide an insight into smaller and less
well-explored cinemas as well as those of Britain, France, Germany,
Italy, Russia and Spain. Authoritative, lively, and jargon-free,
these essays provide the reader with a clear understanding of the
significance of space and place, and a fresh perspective on the
fascinating diversity of European cinema.
