Book Synopsis
Explores the encounter between Emmanuel Levinas' ethical thought and aesthetic realisms of the body

Trade Review
"Proposing a novel marriage between Bazinian realism and Levinasian philosophy, Keyvan Manafi's The Eye of the Cinematograph compellingly asks us to look closely at the filmed body in all its promises and indeterminacies. This is an elegantly written book that sheds new light on the confluences between film ethics, nonprofessional acting and durational cinema." -Tiago de Luca, University of Warwick
