Louise Radinger

I make films and write about film.

I am excited to be part of the Architecture and the Moving Image Symposium convened by David Hurtado at King's College Cambridge on Monday 18 November 2024.

My book 'Women and Home in Cinema: Form, Feeling, Practice' is now available from Palgrave as part of their 'Close Readings in Film and Television' series. You can buy the book at a generous discount from the BFI shop on Southbank (with thanks to the folks at Palgrave).

Still from The Book of the Dead (Kihachiro Kawamoto, 2005, Japan).

I am now working on a videographic essay about 'The Sound of Music' (Robert Wise, 1965).

I have made several short films, two of which have won awards. I have also worked in film festival curation and curated film festivals.

Alongside my work in film I have performed and directed in theatre, with a particular interest in telling stories through shadow theatre, puppetry and opera. I studied shadow theatre at the London School of Puppetry, in Bamberg with Norbert Götz and in Turin with Controluce.

I have a BA in Drama from the University of Manchester and an MA in Film from the University of Westminster.
