In particular, the book explores how racialised bodies and the rhetoric of race difference became central to the working out of specifically cinematic problems: the problems of the stationary camera, of developing narrative form, of realism, of synchronising image and sound, and, perhaps most fundamentally, of the absent or "immaterial" image - the cinema's "shadow."
