Sergei Eisenstein and the Anthropology of Rhythm

The unfinished works of Sergei Eisenstein are traversed by aesthetic, anthropological, and political questions. Focusing on the anthropology of rhythm that the Soviet director developed in his Mexican project, Que viva Mexico!, this book also extends its analysis to the film projects Bezhin Meadow and The Great Fergana Canal.

This book was published on the occasion of the exhibition 'Sergei Eisenstein and the Anthropology of Rhythm' held at Nomas Foundation.
