One of the few women pioneers of cinema and a committed feminist,
Germaine Dulac strongly believed that the public had a role to play
in shaping the history of cinema and the kinds of films that
filmmakers could make. This book draws on a wealth of archival
material - both films and writing - to study Dulac's 'behind the
scenes' work on filmmaking and her social/political activism in the
field of cinema. The biographical and historical introduction
contextualises Dulac's situation at the heart of the avant-garde.
Three chapters organise her films and career around the kinds of
cinema that she promoted: 'psychological', 'pure' and
'documentary'. The conclusion contrasts Dulac's contributions with
those of Alice Guy Blache, another early woman film pioneer,
highlighting their differing paths to recognition. -- .
