Recenzii

Euro-Visions constitutes an important overview of the EU's engagement in the transnational distribution of European film since its formation. It is especially useful for readers wanting to explore the role of European policy-making in the constitution of a transnational idea of Europe.
Euro-visions is undoubtedly a timely addition to the literature on European cinema, addressing many of the key issues on contemporary European film, identity and policy.
The ongoing importance of Liz's topic remains guaranteed ... [An] economical, often insightful work.
Mariana Liz's Euro-Visions undertakes the ambitious but necessary task of offering readers a multifaceted analysis of the evolution of the European Union, its political, economic, and cultural policies in which MEDIA (Measures to Encourage the Development of the Audio-Visual Industry) plays a significant, if also, a contentious role.
In Euro-Visions, the many strands of European cinema come together - concepts and narratives, genres and styles, industry matters and economic concerns. Building on the dialectical interplay of the itinerant and the stagnant, Mariana Liz guides the reader on a filmic journey against the diverse backdrop of Europe's ideological and representational complexity.
