Free Download Daniela Berghahn, "Exotic Cinema: Encounters with Cultural Difference in Contemporary Transnational Film"
English | ISBN: 1474474217 | 2023 | 264 pages | PDF | 21 MB
Exotic Cinema is the first systematic analysis of decentred exoticism in contemporary transnational and world cinema. By critically examining regimes of visuality such as the imperial, the ethnographic and the exotic gaze, which have colonised our minds and ways of looking, Daniela Berghahn makes an important contribution to the urgent agenda of decolonising film studies.
Berghahn demonstrates that decentred exoticism's aesthetic versatility and alluring alterity are uniquely relevant for understanding the transnational appeal of world cinema.
