and their ancestral history’ (p. 64), and then proceeding to present an argumentative logic that strongly implies that there is only one appropriate way for a white person (or perhaps, for anyone) to make contemporary films about Black subjects, and that is to present positive images and narratives of achievement, agency and fulfilment. I am of course simplifying the way Wilson presents her argument (and emphasizing one facet of an argument that is in many respects illuminating and nuanced), but I do not believe I am misrepresenting its fundamental stance. Céline Sciamma: portraits is an insightful and wide-ranging contribution to our understanding of one of the most critically-celebrated French filmmakers of the past decade. As Sciamma’s career continues, and attention to her work among cinephiles, film academics and other scholars continues alongside it, Wilson’s incisive early volume is likely to remain an indispensable point of reference, which mobilizes a novel but pertinent assembly of aesthetic, critical and political frames of reference, and in so doing offers a series of evocative portraits of Sciamma’s first four films.

ABSTRACT Crisis marks our lives more than ever before. It defines the ongoing violence of capitalism, nationalism, neoliberalism, gendered and racialized oppressions, and life in the era of the Anthropocene. In addition to this, crisis plays a crucial role in queer and trans studies, which seeks to expose the crises inherent to regimes of ‘normativity’. Within this context, this article asks – what constitutes crisis epistemologies? How can we study the unpredictable effects of ongoing crises? What are the ethical imperatives of such research? I argue that queer feminist digital ethnographies can be one method to map crisis epistemologies, for three reasons. First, the interdisciplinarity of queer feminist digital ethnographies attunes them to the messiness of crisis. Second, these ethnographies reimagine the field as a rhizomatic network, enabling a mapping of how crisis resignifies relationalities. Third, queer feminist digital ethnographies deploy practices of speculation and fabulation that trace the ongoing resignations of crises alongside building imaginations of worlds without crises, therefore acting as a tool that constructs transformative futures.
