Sally Potter is known for her award-winning films Thriller (1979), Orlando (1992), The Tango Lesson (1997), and YES (2004). These films are widely taught and theoretically valued for their poetic vision and incisive formulations of identities in flux. Potter's authorship comprises a fluid movement between director, screenwriter, composer, and performer. Central to this study is the politically radical potential in Potter's interaction with the live spectator. As Orlando's gaze engages the viewer, this book engages cinema in terms of performance studies, poetics, and feminist philosophy.
