Description

Explore a new dimension of American cinema with Lost Highways, Embodied Travels. This book provides the first book-length study of the road movie within the realm of experimental filmmaking. While the road movie is a recognized genre, its connection to experimental film has remained largely unexplored until now. This work examines over eighty unique and often obscure films and videos. It places these works within the corporeal turn of American avant-garde cinema, a movement typically linked to body genres and sexually explicit films. By looking at these travels through a new lens, the book offers a fresh perspective on both historical and contemporary practices within the experimental film community. Utilizing unpublished archival materials, this study fills a significant gap in film scholarship. It is an essential resource for researchers, students, and film enthusiasts interested in the intersection of movement, the body, and the American experimental tradition.
