| Publisher Description: Despite creating an extensive and innovative body of work over the last 30 years, Aki Kaurism ki remains relatively neglected in Anglophone scholarship. This international collection of original essays aims to redress such neglect by assembling diverse critical inquiries into Kaurism ki's oeuvre. The first anthology on Kaurism ki to be published in English, it offers a range of voices responding to his politically and aesthetically compelling cinema. Deploying various methodologies to explore multiple facets of his work, The Films of Aki Kaurism ki will come to be seen as the definitive book on Kaurism ki. |
