Revue de Presse:
This collection of insightful chapters develops current scholarship on Claire Denis’ work in the light of thought-provoking concepts such as "hydropoetics", the "New Weird", and "languorous temporality". With subtle attention to the specificities of each film, they provide a new and stimulating access to Denis’ unique oeuvre as a whole.– Caroline Eades, University of Maryland
This beautifully wide-ranging collection approaches Claire Denis’ films through an impressively diverse set of methodologies. Thinking across dimensions of ethics and otherness, the body and its environments, the familial and the worldly, ReFocus: The Films of Claire Denis opens exciting new ways to encounter this rich body of work.– Rosalind Galt, King’s College London
