Its starting point is an observation that of all cinematic phenomena none is as intimately related to Marxism as Third Cinema, which decries neoliberalism, the capitalist system, and the Hollywood model of cinema as mere entertainment to make money. This is largely to do with the fact that both Marxism and Third Cinema are preoccupied with inequalities resulting from capital accumulation, of which colonialism is the most extreme manifestation. Third Cinema also defines cinematic modes in terms of representing interest of different classes, with First Cinema expressing imperialist, capitalist, bourgeois ideas, Second Cinema the aspirations of the middle stratum, the petit bourgeoisie and Third Cinema is a democratic, popular cinema.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e[T]his elucidating book ... [highlights] the continued relevance and crucial importance of politically engaged film practices and scholarship in all their diversity. * Film-Philosophy Journal *\u003cbr\u003eMazierska and Kristensen have put together a collection of bold, provocative and at times incendiary essays that challenge the alleged progressiveness of concepts such as world cinema and transnationalism by inviting Marxism back into the debate. The book succeeds in rescuing and reinvigorating the concept of Third Cinema by expanding it into other, hitherto unexplored avenues, and by opening its canon to overlooked works, past and present. In so doing, Third Cinema becomes Third Cinemas and World Cinema undergoes a fierce Marxist critique that puts its very relevance and validity to the test. * Cecília Mello, Senior Lecturer in Film Studies and Film Editing, University of São Paulo, Brazil *\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eIntroduction: \u003c\/b\u003eEwa Mazierska and Lars Kristensen  \u003cb\u003ePart 1: Revisiting Films\u003c\/b\u003e  Chapter 1: Exporting Cinemarxism in the 1960s: The Case of \u003ci\u003eSoy Cuba\u003c\/i\u003e \u003ci\u003eAndrei Rogatchevski\u003c\/i\u003e  Chapter 2: Brazil’s Open Cities: Mimicry, Sexuality, and Class Dynamics in the Urban Landscape of \u003ci\u003eCinema Novo\u003c\/i\u003e \u003ci\u003eBruce Williams\u003c\/i\u003e  Chapter 3: “Unreal City”: The Aesthetics of Commitment in \u003ci\u003ePratidwandi \u003c\/i\u003eand \u003ci\u003eInterview\u003c\/i\u003e \u003ci\u003eKoel Banerjee\u003c\/i\u003e  Chapter 4: The Peruvian Kuntur Group: A Marxist- Indigenist Filmmaking Practice \u003ci\u003eIsabel Seguí\u003c\/i\u003e   \u003cb\u003ePart 2: Comparative Readings\u003c\/b\u003e  Chapter 5: Third Cinema in the 21st century: political utopia in the new documentary films of Fernando Solanas \u003ci\u003eMariano Paz\u003c\/i\u003e  Chapter 6: Third Cinema after the turn of the millennium: Reification of the sign and the possibility of transformation \u003ci\u003ePaulina Aroch and André Dorcé\u003c\/i\u003e  Chapter 7: We Have Never Been Transnational: The Female Condition in Socialist Realism, Postsocialism, and Third Cinema \u003ci\u003eLucian Tion\u003c\/i\u003e   \u003cb\u003ePart 3: Third Cinema versus World Cinema\u003c\/b\u003e  Chapter 8: Dialogical Encounters on the Cinema of Revolution: \u003ci\u003eSave the Children\u003c\/i\u003e \u003ci\u003eFund Film\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eMetalepsis in Black\u003c\/i\u003e \u003ci\u003eDavid Archibald and Finn Daniels-Yeomans\u003c\/i\u003e  Chapter 9: Newsreel Front: A Revived Vision of Third Cinema in Slovenia \u003ci\u003eAndrej Šprah\u003c\/i\u003e  Chapter 10: Listening to the Future: The Film- Philosophy of Abderrahmane Sissako \u003ci\u003eWilliam Brown\u003c\/i\u003e  Chapter 11: Class, Gender and Ethnicity in Alfonso Cuarón’s \u003ci\u003eRoma\u003c\/i\u003e \u003ci\u003eEwa Mazierska\u003c\/i\u003e  Chapter 12: ‘After’ or Back to Third Cinema?
