Cinema and Social Discourse in Cameroon

Cinema and Social Discourse in Cameroon analyzes a cinema, that has been inaugurating some major thematic and aesthetic innovations for the last twenty years. The essays in this volume use film semiotics, postcolonial enquieries, as well as cultural theories to stimulate alternative, innovative, and radical analyses that interrogate and disrupt official discourses and preoccupations about national culture. They also reveal the diverse and creative voices in Cameroon film, deepening our understanding of the language and social discourse of a vibrant national cinema.
