The Cinema of Rithy Panh

Everything Has a Soul

Herausgeber: Barnes, Leslie; Mai, Joseph

Beschreibung

The essays in this groundbreaking collection examine how celebrated Cambodian director Rithy Panh counters the abstraction of mass violence with a  cinema anchored in the body, the physical trace, the direct testimony, and the living landscape. They explore his unique aesthetic sensibility, examining the dynamic and sensuous images through which he suggests that “everything has a soul.”
