About the book

"Puzzle Films examines the influence of a new storytelling epoch on contemporary world cinema by identifying and analyzing films that reject classical storytelling techniques and instead embrace nonlinearity, time loops, and fragmented spatio-temporal reality as their narrative form. These films blur the boundaries between different levels of reality, and are riddled with gaps, deception, labyrinthine structures, unreliable narrators, and overt coincidences." "At a time when many a film is asking more - not less - of fans and cineastes, Puzzle Films will help viewers keep pace with a form of narration that captures the anxiety and ambiguity of our time."--Jacket.
