Subject: postcolonial film and time



I'm wondering if anyone could suggest films and/or theory dealing with the
question of postcolonial cinema and time.  Specifically, my study is
focusing on the concept of cinema as a form of time travel (I realize
there are a lot of precedents here), and one of the concerns I'd like to
address is the construction of time (chronotypes) and their cinematic
representations within different cultural contexts.

So far, I've been thinking only in terms of mainstream Hollywood and some
new French cinema (Resnais, Marker, etc).  But I think that at least some
focus on postcolonial cinema could be productive.

Thanks,
Chuck Tryon
