Sicily on Screen
With its physical beauty and kaleidoscopic cultural background, Sicily has long been a source of inspiration for filmmakers. Twelve new essays by international scholars--and additional writings from directors Roberta Torre, Giovanna Taviani, and Costanza Quatriglio--seek to offset the near-absence of scholarship focusing on the relationship between the Mediterranean island and cinema. Touching on class relations, immigration, gender and poverty, the essays examine how Sicily is depicted in fiction, satire and documentaries. Situated between North and South, East and West, innovation and tradition, authenticity and displacement, Sicily acts as a microcosm of the world, a place to explore numerous narratives and develop intercultural dialogue. It is also the center of cinematographic discussions and events such as the Taormina Film Festival and the SalinaDocFest. The volume presents Sicily almost as a character and creator in its own right.

Manuela
Seeshaupt 1981. Achim, der Gymnasiallehrer aus dem Rheinland, lebt in seinen Schulferien mit in Manuelas Haus am Starnberger See. Da er die Biografie des Stars schreiben soll, erzählt sie ihm abschnittsweise ihre bisherige Lebensgeschichte mit allen Höhen und Tiefen. Im Zentrum steht der 1973 beginnende, gegen sie gerichtete Fernsehboykott, der sie erstmalig an den Abgrund führt. Achim, seit Anfang ihrer steilen Künstlerkarriere tief ergriffener Bewunderer, hat sich längst in Manuela verliebt und erobert sie im Laufe der Zeit mit einer Engelsgeduld. Horrem 1984. Manuela und Achim sind häufig allein ohne den ständig im Weg stehenden Manager Werner. Die Liebe ist voll entflammt und mün...
Wandering Women
Wandering Women: Urban Ecologies of Italian Feminist Filmmaking explores the work of contemporary Italian women directors from feminist and ecological perspectives. Mostly relegated to the margins of the cultural scene, and concerned with women's marginality, the compelling films Wandering Women sheds light on tell stories of displacement and liminality that unfold through the act of walking in the city. The unusual emptiness of the cities that the nomadic female protagonists traverse highlights the absence of, and their wish for, life-sustaining communities. Laura Di Bianco contends that women's urban filmmaking—while articulating a claim for belonging and asserting cinematic and social agency—brings into view landscapes of the Anthropocene, where urban decay and the erasure of nature intersect with human alienation. Though a minor cinema, it is also a powerful movement of resistance against the dominant male narratives about the world we inhabit. Based on interviews with directors, Wandering Women deepens the understanding of contemporary Italian cinema while enriching the field of feminist ecocritical literature.
