Ecology Documentaries: Their Function and Value Seen Through the Lens of Doughnut Economics

Companion piece to Susan Hayward’s Film Ecology focusing on ecology-documentaries produced since the new millennia.

Using Kate Raworth’s regenerative economic theoretical model as set out in Doughnut Economics, this book examines some 57 films emanating from Europe and the four areas of concern they raise about energy-production, pollution and waste-management, agribusiness, disrupted ecosystems and the migratory flow.

This book is ideal for film studies scholars and students, including those teaching or studying film practice, documentary film, European cinema and environmental studies.
