Refocus: The Films of Claire Denis

About Refocus: The Films of Claire Denis

With a career spanning over three decades, French filmmaker Claire Denis has demonstrated not only a remarkable longevity in a notoriously fickle industry, but a continuing fascination with the possibilities of film as form, art, and language. ReFocus: The Films of Claire Denis is a timely look at an artist at the height of her powers with an impressive oeuvre which is reinterpreted in light of new works, including High Life and Both Sides of the Blade. Comprised of 13 original chapters from world leading Denis scholars and early career researchers, this collection includes an accessible introduction for those new to Denis studies, with an overview of thematic interests, and a brief survey of the most salient and influential trends in Denis scholarship. Peter Sloane is Senior Lecturer and Programme Director in English at the University of Buckingham, UK.
