It includes contributions from some of the leading academics in the field and features film recommendations from a range of genres for those interested in exploring more Turkish cinema. The book includes full-colour illustrations and a comprehensive filmography, serving as the first English-language directory of Turkish films.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSince the 1990s, filmmakers in Turkey have increasingly explored notions of gender, genre, cultural memory, and national and transnational identity. Taking these themes as its starting point, this book provides an extensive historical overview of the country's cinema since the early 1920s.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn chapters organised by genre—such as fantasy and science fiction, contemporary blockbusters, women's films, Istanbul films, and transnational or accented cinema—leading scholars of Turkish cinema offer reflections on the country's most important film movements and filmmakers. In the process, they illuminate the industrial, cultural, and political contexts in which the films they address were produced, exhibited, and circulated.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe resulting volume, which includes a comprehensive filmography and recommendations for those interested in further exploration, will be an indispensable reference for scholars and students of Turkish cinema.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Unknown","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47460699898092,"sku":"9781841506203","price":108.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/9781841506203-directory-of-world-cinema-turkey.jpg?v=1774950980","url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/products\/directory-of-world-cinema-turkey-9781841506203","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
