Drawing on the work of philosophers, anthropologists, sociologists, and historians, Mazierska, in a case-study approach, examines cinema in conjunction with histories and theories of work in her effort to understand and assess a paradox: why, now in a time when productive capacity has made it possible for most people to move from the realm of necessity to affluence, education, and unimagined life choices, these ideals are instead receding, poverty and unemployment are growing, and workers are working more for less. Favoring an overthrow of the current system, she uses Marxist theories as she focuses on European cinema in particular for her ideological critique. Five chapters cover Homo Faber and the work of cinema; the 1960s; the 1970s; the 1980s; the 1990s. Annotation ©2015 Ringgold, Inc., Portland, OR (protoview.com)
