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.

Industry Reviews

A superb volume, full of new insights and innovative approaches. This is essential reading for anyone interested in Lucrecia Martel's fascinating work.

--Dr Joanna Page, University of Cambridge

Bringing together a select group of critics from Argentina as well as from Anglophone academia, this volume sheds new light on aspects and nuances that have gone unnoticed in the work of Lucrecia Martel, Latin America's defining filmmaker of the last twenty years.

--Jens Andermann, New York University
