An impressive collection on online film distribution with an original focus on World Cinema in the early stages of the development of the online market. * Roderik Smits, Research Fellow, University Carlos III of Madrid, Spain * Current and timely, World Cinema On Demand provides a deep understanding of the subject. This excellent anthology is an insightful and well researched work examining the complex and at times paradoxical developments of digital distribution and disintermediation. It stands out from others in its focus on national cinema and transnational distribution, offering a vital contribution to the rapidly evolving area of study. * Shujen Wang, Professor, Department of Visual & Media Arts, Emerson College, USA * This collection of essays will forever change the way you think about world cinema. Bringing together some of our finest writers on film, technology and globalisation, World Cinema On Demand maps the diverse circulatory terrain of cinema-in-the-world – from Netflix and Mubi to illegal torrents, fan groups and social media platforms. * Ramon Lobato, Associate Professor, RMIT University, Australia, and author of Shadow Economies of Cinema and Netflix Nations *
