- Extreme Cinema, a ca. 110.000-word monograph, represents a multi-year effort of data collection and analysis that took place over four years with the benefit of an AHRC Early Career Fellowship (AH/J00801X/1). The monograph explores the phenomenon of explicitly sexual, violent or sexually violent art films with an institutional, media industries approach, examining the discourse of critics, distributors, exhibitors, regulators, film festivals. The research involved extended use of primary resources such as BBFC classification reports and conducting original interviews with distribution company CEOs and festival artistic directors and heads of programming that required travel to e.g. Philadelphia, San Francisco and Seattle.
