About this product

Product Information

Taking a transnational approach to the study of contemporary genre production, Nordic Genre Film discusses a range of internationally celebrated examples from the increasingly popular 'Nordic noir' genre, from TV shows and films like The Bridge (2011) and Insomnia (1997) to high concept 'video generation' productions such as Iron Sky (2012).

Reviews
"This multifaceted - and longed-for - anthology explores Nordic film through a dynamic transnational perspective, combining thorough analytical approaches with a wide range of cultural and social observations. The texts uncover the importance of Nordic genre cinema from romantic comedy to slasher, and put its recent successes in a historical context." -- Lars Gustaf Andersson, Lund University, Sweden "The volume stands out in its breadth of critical discussion and detailed examination of contemporary, post-2000 films and television series. What is indeed refreshing is that the chapters in this book pay particular attention to the transnational production, distribution, and reception of contemporary genre films - in part following the 'institutional turn' in film studies today, and in part an effort to expand our understanding of genre and its connections to regional and transnational dynamics." -- Pei-Sze Chow, Scandinavica: An International Journal of Scandinavian Studies, "This multifaceted - and longed-for - anthology explores Nordic film through a dynamic transnational perspective, combining thorough analytical approaches with a wide range of cultural and social observations.

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
