{"product_id":"politics-as-form-in-lars-von-trier","title":"Politics as Form in Lars von Trier","description":"This is the first study that employs a materialist framework to discuss the political implications of form in the films of Lars von Trier. Focusing mainly on early films, \u003ci\u003ePolitics as Form in Lars von Trier \u003c\/i\u003eidentifies recurring formal elements in von Trier’s oeuvre and discusses the formal complexity of his films under the rubric of the post-Brechtian. Through an in depth formal analysis, the book shows that Brecht is more important to von Trier’s work than most critics acknowledge and deems von Trier a dialectical filmmaker. This study draws on many untranslated resources and features interviews with Lars von Trier and his mentor, the great Danish director Jørgen Leth.","brand":"Bloomsbury Publishing Plc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54251365564760,"sku":"9781623563455","price":173.6,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9781623563455_964437ab-3c79-4a7d-8d6f-c05c6dbb7bbf.jpg?v=1743759053","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/politics-as-form-in-lars-von-trier","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
