Klappentext
Werner Schroeter is one of the most influential directors of the New German cinema. This book, drawing upon such theorists as Gilles Deleuze, Walter Benjamin and Bertolt Brecht, seeks to unravel the labyrinth of signs and images threading throughout Schroeter's films. It analyses his use of allegorical montage, cinematic tableaux and gestures.

Zusammenfassung
This book provides a long-overdue introduction to Werner Schroeterâ™s visually lavish, idiosyncratic and conceptually rich cinema, situating it within the context of the West German television and film subsidy system during the 1970s, and engaging with some of the most pertinent and important arguments in contemporary film theory.Â
