This book explores the Situationist International's paradoxical relationship with cinema from 1957 to 1972. It traces the SI's attempts throughout the nineteen sixties to work with cinema's associative power and against its passivity. It follows this project from early encounters with Lettrist cinema to 1968 and beyond.
