AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'Written by Patricia Cornelius, one of Australia’s most celebrated playwrights and a Windham-Campbell prize winner, the micro-budget Melbourne feature Shit began life as a play (2015), with its powerhouse cast of three – Peta Brady, Nicci Wilks and Sarah Ward – all on stage for the show’s entirety. Their characters Sam, Billy and Bobby, respectively, it emerges, had all been complicit in the perpetration of a horrific and wanton crime; throughout the show, they attempt to come to terms with the grim fate that likely awaits them, while ruminating over how their hardscrabble lives, marked by unrelenting, underclass struggles, were never destined to amount to anything.'  (Introduction)

    'Welcome, dear readers, to Issue 109 of the serious and eclectic discussion of cinema. True to our spirit, the contributions herein are wide-ranging, sharp and timely, starting with a 16-text dossier (guest-edited by Barbara Creed and Cristóbal Escobar) on cinema and the nonhuman. As Creed and Escobar compellingly write in their introduction, “humankind’s invention of the myth of human superiority, based on the exclusion of other species and their needs … has led to the seemingly insurmountable problems of the 21st century such as global warming, climate change, the explosion of the human population and species extinction. In order to address these issues, it is crucial to re-think all forms of cultural, social and political representation from film to the arts and new media.” The articles and interviews in this dossier attempt to do just that.'
