Volker Pantenburg shows how these two filmmakers explored the potential of combined shots and montage to create "film as theory." <br/><br/><br/>Mode of access: Internet via World Wide Web. <br/><br/><br/>This eBook is made available Open Access under a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 license:  <br/><br/><br/>In English. <br/><br/><label>ISBN: </label>9789048527557 <br/><br/><label>Subjects--Topical Terms: </label><br/>Motion pictures--Philosophy.<br/>Film, Media, and Communication.<br/>ART / Film & Video.<br/><br/><label>Subjects--Index Terms: </label>Harun Farocki, Jean-Luc Godard, Film Theory, Essay Film. <br/><br/><label>LC Class.
