description
With the consolidation of "indie" culture in the 21st century, female filmmakers face an increasingly indifferent climate. Within this sector, women work across all aspects of writing, direction, production, editing and design, yet the dominant narrative continues to construe "maverick" white
male auteurs such as Quentin Tarantino or Wes Anderson as the face of indie discourse. Defying the formulaic myths of the mainstream "chick flick" and the ideological and experimental radicalism of feminist counter-cinema alike, women''s indie filmmaking is neither ironic, popular nor political
enough to be readily absorbed into pre-existing categories.
This ground-breaking collection, the first sustained examination of the work of female practitioners within American independent cinema, reclaims the ''difference'' of female indie filmmaking. Through a variety of case studies of directors, writers and producers such as Ava DuVernay, Lena Dunham and
Christine Vachon, contributors explore the innovation of a range of female practitioners by attending to the sensibilities, ideologies and industrial practices that distinguish their work - while embracing the "in-between" space in which the narratives they represent and embody can be
revealed.
