In deeply researched and creatively conceived chapters, scholars join with film practitioners in approaching the unfinished film as an ideal site for revealing the lived experiences, practical conditions, and institutional realities of women's film production across historical periods and national borders.Incompleterecovers projects and practices marginalized in film industries and scholarship alike, while also showing how feminist filmmakers have cultivated incompletion as an aesthetic strategy.Objects of loss and of possibility, incomplete films raise profound historiographical and ethical questions about the always unfinished project of film history, film spectatorship, and film studies.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eContents\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Editors’ Acknowledgments \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Pathways to the Feminist Incomplete: An Introduction, a Theory, a Manifesto\u003cbr\u003e Alix Beeston and Stefan Solomon \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e PART ONE.
