    Abstract:
    This article explores the relationship between the concept of fossils and contemporary non-fiction cinema. Focusing on the space-time of cinema, materiality, and eco-feminism, in the attempt to represent the natural environment, the human being is no longer at the centre of the representation. Contemporary film subjects range instead from the stones’ iconography to the image’s survival, the archive, and its activation in the digital age. By analysing selected works by contemporary film-makers – Barbara Hammer, Deborah Stratman, Ana Vaz, Adrián Balseca, Eloïse Le Gallo, Julia Borderie and many others – this research aims to cover contemporary productions from an aesthetic and narrative perspective and see how new strategies are established to represent the natural world in the Anthropocene.
