This is the first genre study of child-starred cinemas from Spain.
It illuminates continuities in the political use of the child
protagonist in over fifty years of Spanish cinema and how the
child-starred genres deploy the concept of childhood to
retrospectively define the nation and its future. From Francoist
popular to oppositional auteur films, and including Spanish and
Latin American cinema, this monograph examines commonalities in
aesthetics, narratives and genre functions. It demonstrates the
impact of these narratives within Spanish film history and
Francoist biopolitics, as well as providing a broader transatlantic
perspective on the genre in select productions from Chile and
Argentina.
