Description de l'ouvrage :
This volume brings together scholarship from both established scholars and early career academics to provide fresh insights and new research on the cinema of Iran. The book is organised around eight broad themes including cinema before and after the revolution, stylistic innovation, documentary, gender, and genre. Encompassing a diverse range of methodological approaches and disciplinary frameworks including film studies, cultural studies, and political economy, each chapter is a self-contained study on a specific topic engaging with the national and transnational history of Iranian cinema which combined provide readers with original new insights into Iranian film and filmmakers, from fiction films to art house and popular cinema. The Handbook includes analysis of the works of established filmmakers such as Bahram Beyzaie, Rakhshan Banetemad, Abbas Kiarostami and Mohsen Makhmalbaf, as well as the output of emerging voices such as Ida Panahandeh and Shahram Mokri. Covering well-known topics as well as cutting edge ones such the sonic and visual manifestations of the urban environment in Iranian films, this book is a vital resource for understanding Iran and its unique cinematic culture.

Revue de Presse :
"Handbook of Iranian Cinema advances the state of the art to wider and more refreshing horizons. It is thorough, authoritative, conversant, and deeply informed. Each chapter pushes the boundaries of the significance of Iranian cinema into a wider global audience. Its scholarship is exemplary, its prose clear and purposeful, its vision engrossing." ―Hamid Dabashi, Professor, Columbia University, USA
"This handbook offers a wealth of fresh perspectives on Iranian national and diasporic cinema, both past and present, by established and emerging scholars. Going beyond the well-worn division of Iranian cinema into pre- and post-revolutionary periods, it provides captivating insights into its circulation and reception, genre trends and classifications, and transnational cultural exchanges. Additionally, it explores the often-overlooked role of sound and highlights the contributions of Iranian women filmmakers. A vital resource for readers, whether they are revisiting these films or discovering them for the first time." ―Shohini Chaudhuri, Professor, University of Essex, UK
