Rezensionen

"Davinia Thornley presents a detailed and logical exploration of cross-cultural filmmaking practices. Her description of 'collaborative criticism', bringing together diverse ways of knowing and working, is entirely persuasive, and her instantiation of transnational and global perspectives are of the current critical moment. This is a very fine book." - Arnold Krupat, Sarah Lawrence College, USA
