Mapping the Rockumentary: Images of Sound and Fury is the first anthology to explore the rockumentary as a central component of both the documentary and world cinema. The book includes case studies of bands and performers such as The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Bob Dylan, The Clash, Madonna and Metallica and performers from Asia, Europe and the Americas, making the case for rockumentaries as part of an established and ever-evolving cinematic tradition. With an international and transdisciplinary approach, and addressing rocumentaries in film, television and on the internet, the book explores the form’s rich history from the 1950s to the present day – and beyond.

Revue de Presse :
This book is a milestone in the study of rockumentary as a genre and the way it reflects history, gender and politics. It takes us through the almost uncharted land of this important genre: from early forms of mediated music, to the breakthrough in the 1960s and into the digital era. It is a rich and illuminating analysis of rockumentary and its cultural context.– Ib Bondebjerg, professor emeritus, University of Copenhagen
