Book Synopsis
A critical reassessment of the aesthetic strategies and cultural value of exoticism in contemporary transnational cinemas

Trade Review
"Exoticism is not 'bad' by default, nor is it necessarily 'colonialist'. Daniela Berghahn's wide-ranging study of contemporary world cinema goes provocatively against the grain, arguing in favour of a 'decentred' exoticism that challenges ethnic essentialism, and that is attuned to the ethical complexities of a globalised world." -Graham Huggan, University of Leeds
