In this comparative and theoretical account of New Left cinema, Morgan Adamson argues that the cinemas of the New Left are sites to examine, through the lens of struggle, the reshaping of global capitalism during the pivotal moment in which they were made while also exploring how these movements endure in contemporary culture and politics. She details how student, labor, anti-imperialist, Black Power, and second-wave feminist movements broke with auteur cinema and sought to forge local and international solidarities by producing political essay films, generating new ways of being and thinking in common. Including in-depth discussions of Third Cinema in Argentina, feminist cinema in Italy, Newsreel movements in the United States, and cybernetics in early video, Enduring Images is an essential examination of the political films of the 1960s and 1970s. Looking at new forms of cinematic resistance--including detailed readings of particular films, collectives and movements--Adamson makes a case for cinema's centrality to the global New Left.
