Abstract | "Film-makers understand the distinction between individuals and groups. When they shoot a character in a coma, or receiving a bone marrow transplant, they know the viewer is thinking: she could be me. When they sweep across the debris of a village where an earthquake has killed thousands, they know the viewer, thinking on a different scale, may be moved and disturbed, but without any route for self-identification will be less riveted. For filmmakers, our collective reality is most comprehensible through individual life stories rather than large groups"-- Provided by publisher. |
