Table of ContentsReviewsIn Quiet Pictures, Sarah Artt argues that silence in film is vitally important, especially to our understanding of women’s and femme-presenting people’s experiences. Artt explores silence through the work of four filmmakers – Joanna Hogg, Lynne Ramsay, Céline Sciamma and Lucile Hadžhalilovic – who have been hitherto critically undervalued, a state of affairs that this book triumphantly corrects. Through close analysis of a range of their films, Artt helps us to understand how silence can work as erasure, as unwitting complicity, as resistance, and in many other ways – all of which reveal resoundingly how silence relates to power. Most thrillingly, silence, in Artt’s assessment, “becomes a rich space of potential”, for redefining gender, identity and how people relate to one another. A terrific book. * Edward Lamberti, Writer and Film Historian, UK * In Quiet Pictures, Sarah Artt argues that silence in film is vitally important, especially to our understanding of women’s and femme-presenting people’s experiences.
