Welcome to kamera books

In response to a growing appetite for writing about film that favours lively, engaged discussion over dry academic theories we aim to produce entertaining, engaging and informative work on all aspects of film and popular culture through our two new imprints

"Encompassing a wide range of cinematic subject matter, accessible and attractively produced, Kamera Books is an excellent, well-written and researched series that will be welcomed by the curious moviegoer and film buff alike."
Adrian Wootton, CEO, Film London
