Deciphers the semiotics of migration and its representation in cinema
Analyses films which depict migration in Africa, the Americas, Europe, and the Middle East
Explores films that transgress mainstream popular currents and instead participate in alternative networks, such as the internet, festivals, museums, and art-house circuits
Presenting the depiction of migration through a variety of cinematic outlets, this volume explores film's depiction of human displacement in different geographic circumstances and probes the reasons why cinema so frequently evokes a stereotype of in-transit people.
Techniques of affect and distance are revealed in the contributors' close film studies of wide-ranging matter, which include works by the Dardenne brothers, transnational video artists Ghazel and Bouchra Khalili, and studies of Syrian films at Western festivals.
Migrants' Perspective, Migrants in Perspective: World Cinema deciphers the semiotics of migration and its representation in cinema, exploring both the complications of shooting a migrant subject and the challenges of including the migrants' point of view.
