Drawing on the work of major writers such as Zygmunt Bauman and Hamid Naficy, D.W. McKiernan explores how the impact of socio-economic change on communities finds expression in films as diverse as Ae Fond Kiss, Calendar Girls, The Idiots,In This World, Lilya 4-Ever, The Magdalene Sisters and Pleasantville.
