Description de l'ouvrage :
This second volume builds on the initial groundwork laid by Ecocinema Theory and Practice by examining the ways in which ecocritical cinema studies have matured and proliferated over the last decade, opening whole new areas of study and research.

Featuring fourteen new essays organized into three sections around the themes of cinematic materialities, discourses, and communities, the volume explores a variety of topics within ecocinema studies from examining specific national and indigenous film contexts to discussing ecojustice, environmental production studies, film festivals, and political ecology. The breadth of the contributions exemplifies how ecocinema scholars worldwide have sought to overcome the historical legacy of binary thinking and intellectual norms and are working to champion new ecocritical, intersectional, decolonial, queer, feminist, Indigenous, vitalist, and other emergent theories and cinematic practices. The collection also demonstrates the unique ways that cinema studies scholarship is actively addressing environmental injustice and the climate crisis.

This book is an invaluable resource for students and scholars of ecocritical film and media studies, production studies, cultural studies, and environmental studies.

Revue de Presse :
"Expanding the focus of the groundbreaking first volume and bringing together a diverse group of contributors, Ecocinema Theory and Practice 2 explores new practices, materialities, and discourses in emerging ecocinema communities. It is an indispensable resource for students and scholars of environmental film and filmmaking."

Alexa Weik von Mossner, Associate Professor of American Studies, University of Klagenfurt, Austria

"This wonderful sequel explores not only the toxicity of the petrofuelled ecocrisis but opens up to discuss broader changes in visual culture. The global – yet so skillfully situated – case studies offer much delight and insight to anyone interested in how moving images help to understand planetary change and justice."

Jussi Parikka, Professor in Digital Aesthetics and Culture, Aarhus University, Denmark and FAMU (Prague), Czech Republic
