Between Images

In the early days of moving pictures, filmmakers learned that the montage could be an effective tool to show changes in time or locale. Between Images takes a revolutionary look at this ubiquitous device and explores a new theory of montage. This study delves deeply into the concept of montage and focuses on the space between images as a powerful source of ideas, feelings, and forms. By bringing together a diverse group of experimental filmmakers, including Harun Farocki, Hito Steyerl, Steve McQueen, and Cauleen Smith, Dachi Saito, and Ja'Tovia Gary, the book creates an interdisciplinary conversation about the power of cinema to effect change.
