This is the first of two episodes in which host Dr Pasquale Iannone and guests discuss Film Phenomenologies, a ground-breaking collection of essays from Edinburgh University Press which explores work by filmmakers such as Céline Sciamma, Agnès Varda, Bill Viola, Alex Garland and Barry Jenkins through a phenomenological lens.

In this first episode, Pasquale is joined by the collection's editor Dr Kelli Fuery (Professor of Creative and Cultural Industries at Chapman University, California). Kelli discusses her interest in feminist film-phenomenology, provides an overview of all 13 chapters and then takes a closer look at her own piece - on Agnès Varda’s feminist musical One Sings, The Other Doesn't (1977).

The next episode of Edinburgh Film Podcast (EFP 50) includes conversations with Professor Lucy Bolton and Dr David Sorfa, who discuss their respective chapters.
