Summary:"Collective Trauma and the Psychology of Secrets in Transnational Film advances a methodological line of inquiry based on a fresh insight into the ways in which cinematic meaning is generated and can be ascertained. Premised on a critical reading strategy informed by a metapsychology of secrets, the book features analyses of internationally acclaimed films--Guillermo del Torro's Pan's Labyrinth, Andrey Zvyagintsev's The Return, Jee-woon Kim's A Tale of Two Sisters, and Alejandro Amen©Øabar's The Others. It demonstrates how a rethinking of the figure of the secret in national film yields a new vantage point for examining heretofore unrecognized connections between collective historical experience, cinematic production and a transnational aesthetic of concealment and hiding."--Provided by publisher
