Albanian Cinema Through the Fall of Communism: Silver Screens and Red Flags, by Bruce Williams

Bruce Williams has remained dedicated to Albanian cinema for several decades now. For many years he was invariably the sole author whose essays on the matter would be included in edited collections related to this part of Europe. More recently, younger specialists have entered the field and scholarship has diversified with contributions by Ana Grgic, Fabio Bego, Iris Elezi, Regina Longo, Thomas Logoreci, and others. Several classic Albanian films have been digitally restored and are in the public space. It is a good moment, therefore, for Williams to organise his contributions on Albanian film into what is the first scholarly monograph on the subject.

Abstract

Bruce Williams has remained dedicated to Albanian cinema for several decades now. For many years he was invariably the sole author whose essays on the matter would be included in edited collections related to this part of Europe. More recently, younger specialists have entered the field and scholarship has diversified with contributions by Ana Grgic, Fabio Bego, Iris Elezi, Regina Longo, Thomas Logoreci, and others. Several classic Albanian films have been digitally restored and are in the public space. It is a good moment, therefore, for Williams to organise his contributions on Albanian film into what is the first scholarly monograph on the subject.
