A timely volume addressing issues of hydro-politics, eco-aesthetics, manufactured landscape, and bioethics, Chinese Ecocinema charts a new direction for film studies and establishes cinema as a vital force in renegotiating fractured relationships amongnature, history, technology, and culture, as it gestures toward a place-bound ideal of planetarianism. -- Yingjin Zhang, University of California, San Diego
