This book looks closely at some of the most significant films within
the field of queer Sinophone cinema. Examining queerness in films
produced in the PRC, Taiwan and Hong Kong, the book merges the
Sinophone with the queer, theorising both concepts as local and
global, homebound as well as diasporic. Queerness in this book not
only problematises the positioning of non-normative desires within the
Sinophone; it also challenges Eurocentric critical perspectives on
filmic representation that are tied to the idea of the binary between
East/West. New Queer Sinophone Cinema will appeal to scholars in
Chinese and film studies, as well as to anyone who is interested in
queer Chinese cinema.
