Description

Discover the life and artistic legacy of a pioneer in ethnographic filmmaking with The Cinema of John Marshall. This volume provides the first English language study of the filmmaker and his extensive body of work. Through a central autobiographical essay, the book explores Marshall's forty-year connection with the San peoples of South Africa. Readers gain deep insight into his filmography, ranging from the award-winning 1957 film The Hunters to his ongoing project, Death by Myth. The text connects personal narratives with broader themes of history and ethnography, examining the political economy of San dispossession. It serves as a valuable resource for those interested in film language and technical exposition, making it a significant addition to the study of visual anthropology.
