Reviews

Disputing the notion that documentary exploits the vulnerable, Van de Peer's fascinating study of great Arab women documentarists shows how subject, filmmaker, and viewer can collaborate in the creative work of solidarity and understanding. Rich with historical context, the book is also an ideal introduction to Arab cultural history since 1967--Prof Laura U. Marks, Simon Fraser University
