This book explores the roles cultural intermediaries play in East Asian cinema. Based on extensive original research, and viewing cinema from the social science perspective which emphasizes the social processes entailed in the cultural production, circulation, and consumption of films and the social relations they involve, rather than studying films as texts, the book examines issues such as the differences between individual and collective intermediaries, the diverse resources and services that they mediate, their social background and targeted audiences, and the political implications of their work. One important conclusion is that cultural intermediaries have been central to creating the whole "idea" of East Asian cinema.

Eyal Ben-Ari is Fellow of the Center for Society, Security and Peace at Kinneret College, Israel.

Heung Wah Wong is Associate Professor of the Global Creative Industries program in the School of Modern Languages and Cultures, University of Hong Kong.
