Its authors explore 'European cinema' as a category within the broader spheres of visual culture, and are concerned with the tributaries of movement, relations of non-fixity and by extension the manner in which these are screened, imagined. One of the remarkable coherences which exists between film itself as a form of imagistic production and the Traveller as a concept extrapolated in this volume is the parallels between the contemporary filmmaker and the nomadic tradition of the Traveller Gypsy/Roma. This volume explores such parallels and a range of ongoing developments in visual culture as relating to the question of cultural diaspora, all of which have created innovative forms of expression in the sphere of cross-cultural and identity representation. -- Contents: Introduction -- Constructing a 'Folk-Devil': Irish Travellers and the 'True Crime' Genre / Jack Fennell; Nomadism, Performance and Communal Memory: The Case of a Travelling Dancing Teacher / Mícheál Ó hAodha; Symbols and Dreams: Some Thoughts on Kusturica's 'The Time of the Gypsies' / Ian Hancock; Rebel with Audience Appeal: The Outsider as Hegemonic Ideal in US Films / Klaus Rieser; Denizens of a Hidden World: Exploring Migrant Trafficking on the Irish Screen / Simon Hudson; Reconsidering Performance (1968): Nomadology and Ethnicity in 60s British Film / Dara Waldron; 'Outsiders' in Irish Film: Marginalised Women in Maeve and Anne Devlin / Kathrin Keller.
