With the transition to a market economy, institutional innovations appreciably transformed the country's filmmaking--a transformation of which audiences are the primary beneficiaries. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe volume's seven chapters combine textual analysis with assessment of camerawork, situating each director's major works in a cultural context that includes significant developments in Poland as well as international trends in cinema and gender politics. A major issue addressed throughout entails the directors' relationship to feminism in narratives that are unapologetically gynocentric.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Helena Goscilo,Vincent Albarano\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798897830664\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Academic Studies Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/23\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 334\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.41lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.75d","brand":"Helena Goscilo","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48242027528447,"sku":"9798897830664","price":129.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_ed24cf64-9965-4c2a-a3ba-51de2d68c405.jpg?v=1772657147","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/films-feisty-femmes-helena-goscilo-9798897830664","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
