1. This book explores the story of the deeply nuanced relationship between Soviet colonial power and Uzbek locals, told through the lens of film. By comparing Russian and Moscowtrained filmmakers representations of the empire's borderlands as well as Uzbek filmmakers' work to escape steryotypes and depict life as they saw it, a deeper picture of the interrelationship between these two groups emerges. 2.

Her work has already been published in French and this will be an opportunity to bring her research to a new English speaking audience. Additionally, the text has been significantly expanded and revised in the English edition. 3. This work will appeal broadly to a cross-disciplinary section of scholars who already look for IUP for our expertise in both Asian Studies, East European and Slavic Studies, and Film Studies.
