This book uses detailed analyses of Collins's films to contextualise her work in the African American, feminist and world film traditions, and it highlights her contribution to each of these canons. Exploring the philosophical aspects of Collins's films and placing her in a genealogy of African American auteurs, Geetha Ramanathan argues that Collins uses film to integrate diverse elements of African American culture, showing how the medium can transform the visual and become a site of convergence for ideas on philosophy, otherness, art, aesthetics and the craft of filmmaking.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBItem Height: 216mmItem Length: 138mmBook Series: VisionariesRelease Year: 2020 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
