The coincidence of digitization and globalization has produced what this book helps to define and describe as a flourishing border cinema whose aesthetics reflect, construct, intervene in, denature, and reconfigure geopolitical borders. This collection demonstrates how border cinema resists contemporary border fortification processes. Showing how cinematic media have functioned technologically and aesthetically to engender contemporary shifts in national and individual identities, the contributors also propose alternative conceptions of these identities to those promulgated by the often restrictive current political rhetoric and ideologies that represent a backlash to globalization UR - https://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site&db=nlebk&AN=2275719 ER -
