Nearly two decades into the new millennium, Latin American
documentary film is experiencing renewed vibrancy and visibility on
the global stage. While elements of the combative, politicized
cinema of the 1960s and 1970s remain, the region's production has
become increasingly subjective, reflexive, and experimental, though
perhaps no less political. At the same time, Latin American
filmmakers both respond to and shape global tendencies in the
genre. This book highlights the richness and heterogeneity of Latin
American documentary film, surveys a broad range of national
contexts, styles, and practices, and expands current debates on the
genre. Thematic sections address the "subjective turn" of the 1990s
and 2000s and the move beyond it; the ethics of the encounter
between the filmmaker and the subject/object of his or her gaze;
and the performance of truth and memory, a particularly urgent
topic as Latin American countries have transitioned from
dictatorship to democracy.
