In 1994, not long after South Africa made its historic transition to multiracial democracy, the nations first blackmajority government determined that film had the potential to promote social cohesion, stimulate economic development, and create jobs. In 1999 the new National Film and Video Foundation was charged with fostering a vibrant, socially engaged, and selfsufficient film industry. What are the results of this effort to create a truly national cinematic enterprise? Projecting Nation: South African Cinemas after 1994 answers that question by examining the ways in which national and transnational forces have shaped the representation of race and nation in featurelength narrative fiction films. Offering a systematic analysis of cinematic texts in the context of the South African film industry, author Cara MoyerDuncan analyzes both wellknown works like District 9 (2009) and neglected or understudied films like My Shit Father and My Lotto Ticket (2008) to show how the ways filmmakers produce cinema and the ways diverse audiences experience itwhether they watch major releases in theaters in predominantly white suburban enclaves or straighttoDVD productions in their own homesare informed by South Africans multiple experiences of nation in a globalizing world.
