Loosely based on Herman Melville’s \u003cem\u003eBilly Budd, Sailor\u003c\/em\u003e (1924), the film explores the complexities of desire, identity, and power within an all-male group of French Foreign Legionnaires stationed at a coastal outpost in the former colony of Djibouti, in East Africa.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe film cemented Denis' position as a leading auteur and visual poet. In this book, Corinn Columpar positions the film as a cinematic bid for freedom. She examines its formal innovations—particularly the use of the gaze, voice, and movement—to explain how Denis produces exhilarating possibilities narratively, affectively, and ideologically, while also situating the film within the histories of art cinema and postcolonial filmmaking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Bloomsbury Publishing PTY Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47548189180140,"sku":"9781839027130","price":29.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/75c1e3d1336df9525142b1aae28ddab5.jpg?v=1776900878"}],"url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/collections\/corinn-columpar.oembed","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
