Plastic City is intertextually linked to Chinese, Brazilian and world cinema, illuminating its connections to past and present film movements and how it mobilizes their poetics and politics.</p>}, number={2}, journal={Ideias}, author={Laukkanen, Tatu-Ilari}, year={2018}, month={dez.}, pages={161–186} }
