Countervisions Pb (Asian American History & Cultu)
Editorial Reviews
Book Description
Spotlighting Asian Americans on both sides of the motion picture camera, Countervisions examines the aesthetics, material circumstances, and politics of a broad spectrum of films released in the last thirty years. One of the anthology's key contributions is to trace the evolution of Asian American independent film practice with essays on the Japanese American internment and historical memory, essays on films by women and queer artists, and the reflections of individual film makers as they discuss independent productions as subverting or opposing the conventions of commercial cinema.
