| dc.description.abstract | This thesis hopes to highlight how a particular film phenomenon in early twenty-first century France demonstrates the concepts of traumatic affect eloquently through its aesthetic and formal tendencies. Commonly known as New French Extremity, this phenomenon touched on transgressive subjects in extreme and often viscerally challenging ways. This work into New French Extremity hopes to bring about a broader understanding of how art communicates traumatic memory through formal elements of storytelling. Ultimately this research seeks to better understand how bodily experience is affectively contagious and how cinema facilitates this communication through formal and aesthetic means. | en_US |
