- Title
ITALIAN CINEMA AND THE WORLD CINEMA STRESS TEST.
- Authors
CAMINATI, LUCA
- Abstract
This article offers a few thoughts on the use of a post-colonial methodology for the study of World Cinema in a national context by promoting an expanded notion of Italian national cinema in terms of its corpus (what constitutes an Italian film), its vocabulary (accented, migrant, globalized), and its methodology. It does so by analyzing two subaltern responses to Pier Paolo Pasolini's African documentaries: Waiting for Pasolini (Daoud Aoula-Syad, 2007) and Pasolini Pa* Palestine (Ayreen Anastas, 2005). Both films are not only cogent geopolitical responses to the new world order of globalization, but actual conversations with and about the canon of Italian cinema and its global afterlife in our current postcolonial condition.
