More about the book

Focusing on endings and 'late style,' this book explores the concept of comparative cinema as a critical endgame, reflecting a shift away from singular traditions. It examines the interplay between literature and film, alongside the relationship between language and visual media. Key figures discussed include Theo Angelopoulos, Ingmar Bergman, and Krzysztof Kieslowski, with recurring motifs of dusk, horizons, labyrinths, and ruins that enrich the analysis. The work invites readers to consider how these themes resonate across various artistic expressions.
