More about the book
Exploring the concept of "counter-cinema," this book delves into the distinct vision presented by women filmmakers, as argued by feminist film critics. Lucy Fischer connects this idea to intertextuality and situates it within contemporary feminist film and art criticism. Each chapter highlights a specific theme or genre, contrasting feminist works with mainstream cinema. Through this critical dialogue, the book reveals a rich tradition of women's cinema that challenges and reshapes dominant cinematic narratives.
