Passion of the Reel: Cinematic versus Modernist Political Fictions in Cameroon

English

By (author): Jean-Olivier Tchouaffe

Highlighting the challenges faced by a nascent national cinema with limited resources, Passion of the Reel provides an in-depth analysis of the output of the Cameroonian film industry. Jean-Olivier Tchouaffe shows that, far from an empty receptacle for colonial legacies, Cameroon and Africa must move beyond their colonial legacies to focus on indigenous productions of meaning informed by traditional wisdom and ordinary Cameroonian life experience. Tchouaffes analysis sets the stage for a film-driven exploration of postcolonialism, social construction and modernization. See more
