Untimely Affects offers an ethical and aesthetic interweaving of philosophy and film analysis to discern how thought persists productively after the horrors of World War II.

In this first extensive analysis of Chris Marker and Alain Resnais' works together, Boljkovac draws on concepts and images that interrogate wounds and layers of a recent past in relation to 'a time yet to come'. Mindful of the seen and unseen 'that quicken the heart' (Marker), this book discerns life-affirming possibilities through its weave of cine-philosophy. As such, Untimely Affects speaks to productive limits and potentials of cinema, thought, self and life through creative untimeliness and the idea of the 'ever new'.
