  • Killer Images

    Documentary Film, Memory, and the Performance of Violence

    Modifié par Joram ten Brink, Joshua Oppenheimer ...

  • The Cinema of Me

    The Self and Subjectivity in First Person Documentary

    Modifié par Alisa Lebow ...
    Collections series Nonfictions

The two senses of the word are immediately in play – the matter and the maker—thus the two ways of being subjectified as both subject and object. Subjectivity finds its filmic expression, not surprisingly, in very personal ways, yet it is ... En savoir plus

  • About to Die

    How News Images Move the Public

    par Barbie Zelizer ...

    A New Comparative Literature
