{"product_id":"marleen-gorris","title":"Marleen Gorris","description":"Dutch director Marleen Gorris is known chiefly for two films: \u003ci\u003eA Question of Silence \u003c\/i\u003e(1982), her fiercely feminist first film, in which three women meet by chance in a womens clothing boutique and ritually murder its male owner; and \u003ci\u003eAntonias Line \u003c\/i\u003e(1995), her fourth film and winner of the 1996 Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film, which traces four generations of Antonias female line in the matriarchal community she establishes in postwar rural Holland. Both have been extensively discussed, though rarely together, and appear on university syllabuses. Her second Dutch language film, \u003ci\u003eBroken Mirrors \u003c\/i\u003e(1984), and her five films in English, however, have received far less, and in some cases no critical attention. Using feminist reformulations of ideas of vulnerability and resistance, this first book-length study of her films examines their revisionings of narrative, time and space, and the possibilities they present of other narratives, other subjectivities and other relationships.","brand":"MediaPlace","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57303862641022,"sku":"NW9781399527972","price":16.53,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1379\/1261\/files\/9781399527972.jpg?v=1778570368","url":"https:\/\/mediaplace.com\/products\/marleen-gorris","provider":"MediaPlace","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
