Résumé:This book is a response to the question of whether narrative films can perform as autobiographies. And the answer is both no and yes. The study concentrates on the work of major authors in the art cinema tradition, directors who plant autobiographical traces in their films, engaging art cinema practices in order both to create a strong self-image (a 'brand' of cinema) and also to meditate on the problematic nature of modern selfhood and self-representation.
