Reprojecting the City takes a radical new look at the cinematic
city through a queer perspective from the global south. Placing
centre-stage the intersection of dissident sexuality with
capitalism, globalisation and urban development, it shows how
recent Latin American films rework our understandings of urban
space and disrupt 'Western' imaginations of city life and sexuality
in the majority world. Fusing a queer perspective with a range of
other critical approaches, Hoff takes current debates beyond the
now well-trodden narratives of dependency and subalternity to a new
space in which the so-called 'periphery' is relocated back to the
centre of things. Latin American cinematic cities, emerge not
merely as marginal spaces of prejudice, discrimination, exclusion
and violence also ones of hope, empowerment and productive
possibility firmly implicated in the global (re)production of
sexualities and sexual discourses.
