Description

Viennese filmmaker Ruth Beckermann has created an exciting and widely recognized body of essay and documentary films. Her work is both deeply personal and political, exploring complex relationships between history and the present. Beckermann's films often reflect her own identity as a Jewish woman in postwar Austria and Europe, while also examining broader themes such as identity conflicts, class struggle, and the legacy of war. Recent projects have included an unconventional feature film about the love affair between poets Paul Celan and Ingeborg Bachmann, and a more recent work that uses archival footage to reflect on populism and the media. This book is the first English-language publication on Ruth Beckermann's filmic oeuvre, featuring an original essay by Nick Pinkerton, in-depth conversations with the artist, and a detailed filmography.
