Film and Domestic Space: Architectures, Representations,
DispositifEdited by Stefano Baschiera and Miriam De RosaAlthough
film and media studies have widely engaged with the different
aspects of social space, domestic space in film has rarely been
studied in its multiple dimensions. Drawing on a broad range of
theoretical disciplines and with case studies of directors such as
Chantal Akerman, Agnes Varda, Claire Denis, Todd Haynes, Amos
Gitai, Martin Ritt, John Ford, Ila Beka and Louise Lemoine this
book goes beyond the representational approach to the analysis of
domestic space in cinema, in order to look at it as a dispositif.
Adopting this innovative two-fold approach that couples
representation and dispositif, the home is studied as an
architecture, as the place that embodies, defines and perpetuates
the family history, as the milieu of gender and generational
struggle, as well as the first site where manifestations of power
unfold. All chapters contribute to explore, unpack the
complexities, and expand on the richness encapsulated in the notion
of domesticity and dwelling in its fascinating relation to moving
images.
