Reviews

The history of South African film is well documented, especially during the period of political transition. Less well examined is the contemporary post-millennial era, on which Moyer-Duncan's book offers a very useful analytical frame to underpin study of those cinema themes that followed liberation after 1994. --KEYAN G. TOMASELLI, Distinguished Professor of Communication Studies, University of Johannesburg, and Professor Emeritus and Fellow, University of KwaZulu-Natal
