Nordic film cultures have transformed in the last 50 years, partly due to the loosening of film censorship, but also due to the shifting attitudes towards what constitutes national film culture and the rising appreciation for commercial genre film production.
Arising from the significance of this reciprocal cultural exchange, The Politics of Nordsploitation takes a transnational approach to exploring these films in their industrial contexts, exploring them as not only political manifestations of domestic considerations but also to position Nordic exploitation film cultures in a global context. The book provides a film historical exposition of a largely ignored film cultural movement but in addition, on a more retrospective level of analysis, it outlines how influential these films have been. The majority of the book focuses on key patterns and periods in the 1970-90s, but also traces the impact these films have had on textual tactics and industrial practices of contemporary filmmakers.
