Postkino a feminizm: doświadczanie, materialność i przemieszczenia
Post-Cinema and Feminism: Experiencing, Materiality, and Relocations

Summary/Abstract: In the article the author explores post-cinema from a feminist perspective, emphasising materiality and relocation as key concepts for analysing contemporary audiovisual practices. Drawing on post-cinema theory and feminist approaches to embodiment, she argues that new film forms transform rather than reject cinematic traditions. A central case in these reflections is the work of Jennifer Reeves, whose use of 16 mm films, with recycled footage and organic interventions in the film material, highlights the interplay of materiality, haptics, and women’s experiences. Analyses of Kurdwin Ayub’s Sonne (2020) and Kate Beecroft’s East of Wall (2025) show how the introduction of a smartphone footage into the film may become an act of feminist autocreation. Referring to the reflections of Laura Mulvey and Martine Beugnet, as well as the theories of Francesco Casetti and Andrea Pinotti, the author argues that feminist post-cinematic practices integrate materiality, technological hybridity, and posthumanist perspectives on the relations between bodies, media, and environments.
