This engaging book explores some of the most significant films to
emerge from Latin America since 2000, an extraordinary period of
international recognition for the region's cinema. Each chapter
assesses an individual film, with some contributors considering the
reasons for the unprecedented commercial and critical successes of
movies such as City of God, The Motorcycle Diaries, Y tu mama
tambien, and Nine Queens, while others examine why equally
important films failed to break out on the international circuit.
Written by leading specialists, the chapters not only offer textual
analysis, but also trace the films' social context and production
conditions, as well as critical national and transnational issues.
Their well-rounded analyses provide a rich picture of the state of
contemporary filmmaking in a range of Latin American countries.
Nuanced and thought-provoking, the readings in this book will
provide invaluable interpretations for students and scholars of
Latin American film. Contributions by: Sarah Barrow, Nuala
Finnegan, David William Foster, Miraim Haddu, Geoffrey Kantaris,
Deborah Shaw, Lisa Shaw, Rob Stone, Else R. P. Vieira, and Claire
Williams.
