The Politics of Age and Disability in Contemporary Spanish Film
examines the onscreen construction of adolescent, elderly, and
disabled subjects in Spanish cinema from 1992 to the present.
Applying a dual lens of film analysis and theory drawn from the
allied fields of youth, age, and disability studies, this study is
set both within and against a conversation on cultural
diversity-with respect to gender, sexual, and ethnic identity-which
has driven not only much of the past decade's most visible and
fruitful scholarship on representation in Spanish film, but also
the broader parameters of discourse on post-Transition Spain in the
humanities. Presenting an engaging, and heretofore under-explored,
interdisciplinary approach to images of multiculturalism in what
has emerged as one of recent Spain's most vibrant areas of cultural
production, this book brings a fresh, while still complementary,
critical sensibility to the field of contemporary Peninsular film
studies through its detailed discussion of six contemporary films
(by Salvador Garcia Ruiz, Achero Manas, Santiago Aguilar & Luis
Guridi, Marcos Carnevale, Alejandro Amenabar, and Pedro Almodovar)
and supporting reference to the production of other prominent and
emerging filmmakers.
