Beskrivning
This book considers significant ways in which trees have been represented in European and American cinemas, via the symbolic regimes of various popular genres (period films, war films, disaster movies) and screen modes (documentary, art cinema, animation). It does so by presenting series of case studies from different cultural contexts and historical moments, from Le Déjeuner de Bébé (Baby’s Meal) (1895) to Disco Boy (2023).
