Description de l'ouvrage :
Re-examines notions of East and West in contemporary European cinema
Twenty-five years have passed since the fall of the Berlin Wall and the end of communism in Eastern Europe, and ten years have passed since the first formerly communist states entered the EU. An entire post-Wall generation has now entered adulthood, yet scholarship on Europeancinema still tends to divide the continent along the old Cold War lines.
In East, West and Centre the world’s leading scholars in the field assemble to consider the ways in which notions such as East and West, national and transnational, central and marginal are being rethought and reframed in contemporary European cinema. Assessing the state of post-1989 European cinema, from (co)production and reception trends to filmic depictions of migration patterns, economic transformations and socio-political debates over the past and the present, they address increasingly intertwined cinema industries that are both central (France, Germany) and marginal (Romania, Bulgaria, Lithuania) in Europe. This is a ground-breaking and essential read, not just for students and scholars in Film and Media Studies, but also for those interested in wider European Studies as well.

Revue de Presse :
East West and Centre: Re-framing Post-1989 European Cinema cannot be missed by anybody who searches for thought-provoking films and new ways to tackle them. Its authors engage with the legacies of various types of colonialism in Europe and imbalance in European cinema, and attempt to counteract these phenomena by offering close analyses of the most fascinating films made since the fall of state socialism, utilising concepts such as feminism, magic realism, hapticity and road cinema.– Ewa Hanna Mazierska, University of Central Lancashire
A valuable collection of essays exploring the East-West European cinematic relationship. Each essay stands on its own, some engaging in analysis of specific films, others offering an overview of a "minor" national cinema...[the volume] will be of interest to anyone researching contemporary European cinema and particularly those interested in the relationship between eastern and western Europe.– David N. Coury, German Studies Review
