"Ambitious in both its intellectual and geographical scope, this volume provides us with an innovative and original understanding of what is happening in the new and rapidly changing European cinema scene - a very welcome intervention in an important cultural agenda." - Kevin Robins, City University, London "Miyase Christensen and Nezih Erdogan have edited an excellent book on film and media landscapes in the "new" Europe of the early twenty-first century. Incorporating eighteen individual chapters in three parts, the book re-examines what "European" media and cinema means during a period in which the geographical and cultural boundaries of "Europe" are still shifting, the media themselves are deeply influenced by the digital revolution, and audiences for "film" are constantly re-defining themselves. The book itself offers fresh perceptions across a range of different fields and should be of interest to all those fascinated by current trends in both film and media." Melvyn Stokes, University College London"
