About Afterimage: Film, Trauma And The Holocaust (Emerging Media)

The appearance of Alain Resnais’ 1955 French documentary Night and Fog heralded the beginning of a new form of cinema, one that used the narrative techniques of modernism to provoke a new historical consciousness. Afterimage presents a theory of posttraumatic film based on the encounter between cinema and the Holocaust. Locating its origin in the vivid shock of wartime footage, the study focuses on a group of crucial documentary and fiction films that were pivotal to the spread of this cinematic form across different nations and genres. verite, culminating in Shoah. He then turns to the appearance of a fictional posttraumatic cinema, tracing its development through the vivid flashbacks in Resnais’ Hiroshima, Mon Amour, to the portrayal of pain and memory in The Pawnbroker. He excavates a posttraumatic autobiography in three early films by Hungarian Istvan Szabo. Finally, he examines the effects of postmodernism on posttraumatic cinema, looking at Schindler’s List and a work about a different form of historical trauma, History and Memory, a videotape dealing with the internment of Japanese Americans during World War II.
