Negotiating the Auteur

Meer over het boek

Focusing on the work of four contemporary French directors, this analysis explores their unique positioning between auteur and popular cinema. It examines how their films challenge traditional genre boundaries and address themes of gender, intimacy, and political representation. Through critical discussions of works by Dominique Cabrera, Laetitia Masson, Noémie Lvovsky, and Marion Vernoux, the book highlights the construction of social intimacy and the subversion of romance narratives, offering fresh insights into contemporary French film's political landscape.
