What is ReFocus: The Films of Kelly Reichardt (ReFocus: The American Directors Series) about?
## The first book-length study of Reichardt’s career and works Over her multi-film career, including works like __Old Joy, Meek’s Cutoff__ and __Certain Women__, the independent filmmaker Kelly Reichardt has established a highly individual perspective on questions of gender, feminism, socioeconomics and sexual orientation, set within an aesthetic framework that is guided by the low-budget techniques of ‘slow cinema’, minimalism and neorealism. In this close reading of her films and production methods, E. Dawn Hall defines Reichardt’s auteur characteristics, arguing that she offers a contemporary and sustainable model for independent filmmakers in America. ## Key Features * Synthesizing the contemporary feminist debate surrounding auteur theory, this book explores Reichardt’s cinematic characteristics as an auteur * Elucidates the environmental and ecofeminist concerns in Reichardt’s films * Discusses Reichardt’s three experimental short films in detail * Includes an original interview with Reichardt
