N2 - A feminist philosophical investigation of female subjectivity/ies in films directed by important women film directors of the 1990s, 2000s and 2010s (Agnes Varda, Catherine Breillat, Sally Potter). Informed by a broad range of feminist philosophy (Simone de Beauvoir, Luce Irigaray, Christine Battersby, Iris Marion Young), this 9-chapter 80,000 word book interprets films from the 25 years up to 2015 in order to distinguish its approach and focus from the psychoanalytic film feminisms of the 1970s and 1980s.
