Memory and Survival the French Cinema of Krzysztof Kieslowski, Paperback / softback Book

Memory and Survival the French Cinema of Krzysztof Kieslowski Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Kieslowski's last films have indelibly marked the past decade.

His cinema has renewed the representation of the human subject and emotion in film: space and luminous surface reveal the finest, most fragile impressions of states of mind and human consciousness.

This study is the first to offer specific focus on Kies'lowski's last films, on his French-language cinema and its place within the broader context of French film-making.

Engaging with Deleuze's discussions of the time-image, and recent work in trauma theory, Emma Wilson offers radical insights into the innovation in Kies'lowski's explorations of memory, temporality, loss and desire.

A charged defence of Kies'lowski's work, Memory and Survival offers new readings of this cinema of blind chance and fleeting beauty.
