This volume considers existing critical work on Martel's oeuvre,
and proposes new ways of understanding it, in particular through
desire, the use of the child's perspective, and through the senses
and perception. Martin also offers an analysis of the politics of
Martel's films, showing how they can be understood as sites of
transformation and possibility, develops queer approaches to
Martel's films, and shows how they offer new forms of cinematic
pleasure.
