Más información sobre el libro

Lingzhen Wang explores the impact of socialist women filmmakers in modern China, examining their sociopolitical roles and artistic innovations. By focusing on filmmakers like Wang Ping and Dong Kena from the 1950s and 1960s, as well as Zhang Nuanxin and Huang Shuqin in the 1980s and 1990s, she critiques existing interpretations shaped by Western ideologies and cultural feminism. Wang advocates for a reevaluation of historical materialism and socialist feminism, aiming to create a unified vision for future transnational feminist and cultural practices.
