Table of ContentsReviewsThis fascinating and comprehensive study is the first book devoted to the career of a truly remarkable woman who pioneered the compilation documentary, contributed significantly to the Soviet avant-garde in its golden age, and left behind an unmatched oeuvre of political documentaries. It will be the standard work on Shub and her films for years to come. * Denise Youngblood, Professor Emerita, University of Vermont, USA * At last, we have the scholarly monograph Esfir Shub so richly deserves. Sharp has done her subject proud. * Graham Roberts, Emeritus Professor, Leeds Trinity University, UK * Ilana Shub Sharp's book is a work of painstaking research and thoughtful scholarship that illuminates the life and career of Esfir Shub. More than that, it is a labour of love and, above all, a heartfelt plea for a proper appreciation not only of Shub's ground-breaking films but also of her vision, at once exhilarating and forlorn, of cinema's social mission. * James Donald, Emeritus Professor of Film Studies, University of New South Wales, Australia * This fascinating and comprehensive study is the first book devoted to the career of a truly remarkable woman who pioneered the compilation documentary, contributed significantly to the Soviet avant-garde in its golden age, and left behind an unmatched oeuvre of political documentaries.
