Florence Martin examines the intersections of nation and gender in seven films, showing how directors turn around the politics of the gaze as they play with the various meanings of the Arabic term hijab (veil, curtain, screen). Martin analyzes these films on their own theoretical terms, developing the notion of \"transvergence\" to examine how Maghrebi women's cinema is flexible, playful, and transgressive in its themes, aesthetics, narratives, and modes of address. These are distinctive films that traverse multiple cultures, both borrowing from and resisting the discourses these cultures propose.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51706073940256,"sku":"NEW0253223415","price":28.83,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/8111y-JqzbL.jpg?v=1779391999","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/screens-and-veils-maghrebi-womens-cinema-new-directions-in-national-cinemas-0253223415","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
