Lucrecia Martel has made only four feature films to date, but has nonetheless become one of the world's most admired directors. Her work is extraordinarily sensitive to the limits of sensory perception, the limits imposed by gender roles, and the limits of empathy and affect across social divisions. This edited collection broadens the critical conversation around Martel's work by integrating analyses of her features with the less frequently studied short films and her other artistic projects. This volume's fresh, holistic approach to Martel's career includes contributions from scholars in Latin America, Europe and the United States, and ends with a new interview with Martel herself.
Natalia Christofoletti Barrenha is an independent film researcher and programmer specialising in Latin American cinema. She is the author of Espaços em conflito. Ensaios sobre a cidade no cinema argentino contemporâneo (2019) and A experiência do cinema de Lucrecia Martel: Resíduos do tempo e sons à beira da piscina (2014. Translation into Spanish: 2020). Julia Kratje is a researcher at Argentina's National Council of Scientific and Technical Research (CONICET), and teaches at the Universidad de Buenos Aires. She is the author of Al margen del tiempo. Deseos, ritmos y atmósferas en el cine argentino (2019) and editor of El asombro y la audacia. El cine de María Luisa Bemberg (2020), among others. Paul R. Merchant is Senior Lecturer in Latin American Film and Visual Culture at the University of Bristol. He is the author of Remaking Home: Domestic Spaces in Argentine and Chilean Film, 2005-2015 (2022) and the co-editor of Latin American Culture and the Limits of the Human (2020).
