This, the first book-length study on the topic, will function as an introduction to this emergent and growing cinema and offer a survey of important films and directors of the last two decades. In addition, it intervenes in the theoretical debates about Turkish German culture by engaging with different methodological approaches that originate in film studies UR - https://doi.org/10.1515/9780857457691?locatt=mode:legacy UR - https://www.degruyter.com/isbn/9780857457691 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/document/cover/isbn/9780857457691/original ER -
