The new Scottish cinema

From a near standing start in the 1970s, the emergence and expansion of an aesthetically and culturally distinctive Scottish cinema proved to be one of the most significant developments within late-20th and early 21st-century British film culture.

Individual Scottish films and filmmakers have attracted notable amounts of critical attention as a result. 'The New Scottish Cinema' traces Scottish film culture's industrial, creative and critical evolution in comprehensive detail across a 40-year period.
