Global London on screen presents a melange of films by directors from the Global South and North, portraying everyday life to the more fantastical, odious, or extraordinary in terms of circumstances as captured cinematically in this superdiverse city. This book portrays a segment of such superdiversity by historicising and theorising various cinematic reproductions of London by filmmakers coming to this megacity from abroad. As visitors, cosmopolitans, or even migrant filmmakers, their treatment of London's zonal locations as both foreign and familiar is fascinating; their narratives and visualisations of London's spatial and architectural uniqueness is given a sojourners' touch; while other foreign filmmakers showcase and sometimes problematise London's socio-cultural globality and locality as both British and a city open (and sometimes closed off) to the world.
