Filmmakers on Film bridges the gap between film theory and filmmakers’ thoughts and poetics, and proposes a new way to address and elaborate film theory. It brings together primary sources by filmmakers themselves, drawing on their films, interviews, books, texts, and manifestos. The volume also discusses the ways in which filmmakers influence each other, the spectator as seen by filmmakers, and ways to critically address a filmography that takes into account filmmakers other than the director.
This curated selection of writings, with contributors from a range of countries including the USA, UK, India, China, Portugal, Brazil, Belgium and New Zealand, reflects the global perspective of this new approach. Contributors discuss how filmmakers including Jiang Hao, Wim Wenders, Andy Warhol, Maya Deren, Abbas Kiarostami, Pa. Ranjath, Trinh T. Minh-ha and Jean-Luc Godard have reflected on their own and others’ poetics and creative practice.
