(A film) is a selection of shots crafted into a sequence.
Explanation:
Obviamente se está refiriendo al montaje (film editing en inglés) y al hecho obvio de que una película es el resultado de un proceso creativo posterior que selecciona y combina escenas. "Unir partes" e "hilvanar cortes" son dos maneras de referirse a lo mismo. Por otro lado, "partes" es un concepto vago y "cortes" sólo se usa en cinematografía como traducción directa de "director's cut":
http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Montaje
Que en realidad está mejor traducida como "versión del director":
http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Versión_del_director
Dada la reiteración que menciono y la vaguedad de los conceptos (no se sabe si son planos o escenas y "corte", como ya vimos, se aplica al trabajo terminado) yo sugiero interpretarla como propongo. El uso de "craft" incorpora el concepto de "hilvanar".

A/The film is a product that combines separate shots and threads scenes together

(the film) reconstructs the deconstructed


Explanation:
'The film (is presented as a product that) reconstructs the deconstructed'.

This is how I felt it could be translated before I found the article that extract comes from on the web. Having read on and seen Jacques Derrida is mentioned on the next paragraph, I think it would suit the context.

is a creation that darns holes/stitches cuts and joins pieces together


Explanation:
Another suggestion!

I would change the order because I think holes have to be darned before pieces can be joined together.

I know it's a film but I thought 'darns holes' sounded better than 'stitches cuts'.
