About this product
Product Information
This is the first book to investigate the coming-of-age genre as a significant phenomenon in New Zealand's national cinema, tracing its development and elucidating its role in cultural change. With chapters on landmark films like An Angel at My Table, Heavenly Creatures, Once Were Warriors and Boy, this book explores the influence of the French New Wave and European art cinema and examines the dialogue between national cinema and a nation's literature. Looking at the characteristics of an indigenous 'Fourth Cinema', as well as different perspectives on gendered and sexual identities, Coming-of Age-Cinema in New Zealand considers the evidence, provided in these films, of significant cultural shifts that have taken place - or are in the process of taking place - as New Zealanders discover their emerging national identity.

Reviews
In this insightful study Alistair Fox examines the coming-of-age narrative in New Zealand films, deftly showing how such stories relate to the history of both New Zealand cinema and the nation. With this engaging and lucid analysis, Fox at once demonstrates the centrality of coming-of-age stories to New Zealand cinema and New Zealand film criticism
