Sumario: | "Explores how the topic of 'youth' has inspired Francophone filmmakers to explore and reinvent common tropes associated with young people ... a body of work addressing the richness and complexity of this topic in a French and Francophone context. This volume offers new insights into the works of emerging and well-established directors alike, who all chose to place youth at the heart of their narrative and aesthetic concerns. Showing how the topic of 'youth' has inspired filmmakers to explore and reinvent common tropes associated with young people, the book also addresses how the representation of youth can be used to mirror the tensions -- political, social, religious, economic or cultural -- that agitate a society at a given time in its history ... Deals with contemporary issues such as LGBTQ identities, terrorism or social tensions and inequities in French and Francophone societies" -- |
