Edited by Rolando B. Tolentino. Anthology of essays about cinema, taking off from the post-World War II detente foreign policy of the United States to illuminate issues of transparency of power and power relations. Seeks to answer questions like: How has the visible image been constructed such that it implicates issues of colonial, imperial, and nationalist representations and discourses? How has geopolitics, the mobilization of a global discourse of capital, liberal democracy and modernity been rendered in the Philippines?
