- Combines formal, historical, cultural, and theoretical approaches to study
- Analyzes how film represents and influences individual and societal constructs of identity
- Uses selected readings to introduce inter-textual relations between the readings and the films they discuss
- Contains section introductions that map the themes and histories of each topic, and raise theoretical issues specific to each
