Rezension: "Weihnachtsfilme lesen – Familienordnungen, Geschlechternormen und Liebeskonzepte im Genre" von Andrea Geier, Irina Gradinari und Irmtraud Hnilica (Hg.)

Abstract

In their anthology, the editors Andrea Geier, Irina Gradinari and Irmtraud Hnilica question the political, economic and gender-relevant aspects of Christmas films. They not only analyse the implications of the individual films in terms of race, class and gender, but also show the subversive potential of how Christmas films cast doubt on the heteronormative ideas associated with them.
