Latin American women filmmakers have achieved unprecedented
international prominence in recent years. Notably political in
their approach, figures such as Lucrecia Martel, Claudia Llosa and
Bertha Navarro have created innovative and often challenging films,
enjoying global acclaim from critics and festival audiences alike.
They undeniably mark a 'moment' for Latin American cinema.Bringing
together distinguished scholars in the field - and prefaced by B.
Ruby Rich - this is a much-needed account and analysis of the rise
of female-led film in Latin America. Chapters detail the
collaboration that characterises Latin American women's filmmaking
- in many ways distinct from the largely 'Third Cinema' auteurism
from the region - as well as the transnational production contexts,
unique aesthetics and socio-political landscape of the key industry
figures. Through close attention to the particular features of
national film cultures, from women's documentary filmmaking in
Chile to comedic critique in Brazil, and from US Latina screen
culture to the burgeoning popularity of Peruvian film, this timely
study demonstrates the remarkable possibilities for film in the
region. This book will allow scholars and students of Latin
American cinema and culture, as well as industry professionals, a
deeper understanding of the emergence and impact of the filmmakers
and their work, which has particular relevance for contemporary
debates on feminism.
