What Images Do: Cinema and Politics in Jacques Rancière’s Perspective
Abstract
This paper aims to explore and question the capabilities and limitations of the images that construct a film's narrative. This exploration is based on the conceptual framework of Jacques Rancière, who does not seek to offer applicable knowledge as doctrine, but rather proposes to open a space for multiple interpretations and understandings that allow for the development of an intellectual movement leading to an examination of the mechanics and functioning of a film.Downloads
