- This book examines European films about work, from the 1960s until 2015, against the background of European and world history and the changing in the understanding of the concept of work. A product of the collection and analysis of a large body of material, including several hundred films and secondary sources (books and film reviews), archived over four years. At publication it was first monograph in English, devoted to analysis of the motif of work in cinema. It was made from a distinct perspective: Marxism, which was juxtaposed with and enriched by other perspectives, such as gender and genre.
