Assistant Professor of Humanities Iqra Shagufta Cheema, PhD, published a new book this fall.

The book, ReFocus: The Films of Annemarie Jacir, has been published by the Edinburgh University Press. The book takes a transnational and feminist approach to the oeuvre of Palestinian director, Annemarie Jacir to argue for a transvergent transnational cinema.

From the summary:

Jacir is a Palestinian woman whose work is recognized globally as innovative, politically challenging, and genre-crossing. The book offers an in-depth study of her films and other works by locating it in a geospatial, sociocultural, and critical theoretical framework. It critically analyses Annemarie Jacir’s development as an artist, filmmaker, and curator of film.
