This book investigates the representational politics of youth cinema. It cuts up linear cinematic narratives to develop a hop-scotched history of youth, Generation X and youth culture to reveal the archetypes and ideologies punctuating the cinematic landscape. It critiques the ongoing marginalization of youth struggling to find their identity and a voice in increasingly unstable times.
