Books by Ramona Fotiade

This book is the first integrated study of Surrealist photography and film, assessing the impact of early experimental practice and theoretical discourse on post-war trends in art house cinema. Drawing on the work of Barthes, Derrida and Deleuze, the author sheds light on Surrealist concepts and traces their influence on post-war filmmakers.

In this original guide to the film, Ramona Fotiade analyses in depth its production and reception, as well as its mise-en-scene and editing.
