ReFocus: The Films of Nuri Bilge Ceylan is a collection of expert scholarly essays that examine the films of Turkish director Nuri Bilge Ceylan, exploring his transnational cinema with intertextual and intermedial readings, and placing his work in the context of Turkey's social, cultural, and political climate.

ReFocus: The Films of Nuri Bilge Ceylan is a comprehensive and insightful examination of the work of Turkish director Nuri Bilge Ceylan. The book provides thematic analysis of Ceylan's transnational cinema, employing intertextual and intermedial readings of individual films to explore the fluidity of the text and create a dialogue between chapters, akin to the manner in which Ceylan's films maintain dialogue with each other.

Locating Ceylan's cinema within the context of the past and present social, cultural, and political climate of Turkey, the book offers unprecedented political and sociological readings of specific films. It also offers a textual reading of Ceylan's films from the perspective of feminist film theory, placing his oeuvre within the context of global cinema as a transnational author of realist cinema and slow cinema.

The book brings together a cohort of expert scholars, including film critics, scholars of literature, and art history, who offer their perspectives on Ceylan's films. Their contributions provide a deep understanding of Ceylan's aesthetics, auteurism, and unique position within the film industry of Turkey and contemporary global cinema.

Through its comprehensive analysis and engaging scholarship, ReFocus: The Films of Nuri Bilge Ceylan is an essential resource for students, scholars, and enthusiasts of cinema. It offers a valuable insight into the work of one of the most celebrated filmmakers of our time and sheds light on the transnational nature of contemporary cinema.
