Book Presentation:
In the wake of rising xenophobic violence, nationalism and right-wing fundamentalism in Europe, this book evaluates the portrayal of the migrant Other in selected examples of contemporary French and German cinema from the period 1989–2020 in the context of the ongoing debate about European identity and its socio-political significance.
