This considerable body of work is one of the hidden foundations of his oeuvre, where his relationship to political subjectivation, autofiction, and the intersections between documentary, propaganda and fabulation is negotiated more explicitly than in his films.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify; ; white-space:pre-wrap;\" data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\"\u003eRobert Kramer's cinematic work is the subject of growing international recognition. It is accompanied by an important corpus of preparatory texts, letters, notes and screenplays now preserved in France at IMEC (Institut mémoires de l'édition contemporaine).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify; ; white-space:pre-wrap;\" data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\"\u003eThe present book project was initially conceived during the author's lifetime, in friendly complicity with film historian Bernard Eisenschitz. The sudden death of Robert Kramer in 1999 as well as various editorial setbacks hindered its publication until today.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify; ; white-space:pre-wrap;\" data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\"\u003eRobert Kramer's texts reveal the figure of a filmmaker endowed with an acute awareness of history and social injustices, whose engagement in the political struggles of his time is inseparable from his films. He invented unprecedented forms of cinematic expression, mixing collective experience and certain biographical aspects to produce forms of documentary fictions whose innovative aspect is far from exhausted. The texts gathered here are those that maintain the closest connection with his films (realized or not). Written before, during, or after the shooting or release of a film, they provide invaluable insight into the political and artistic commitment (the two being inseparable in his eyes), Robert Kramer's working method, and inform the understanding of his work.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify; ; white-space:pre-wrap;\" data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\"\u003eRobert Kramer (1939-1999) is an American filmmaker who settled in Europe in the early 1980s.
