| Summary: | This book offers intersectional, intergenerational and international perspectives on nonfiction film- and video-making by and about women, examining practices that range from activist documentaries to avantgarde experiments. Concentrating primarily on the period between the 1970s and 1990s, the contributions revisit major figures, contexts and debates across a polycentric, global geography. They explore how the moving image has been a crucial terrain of feminist struggle, a way of not only picturing the world but remaking it. |
