Description

Product Description Indigeneity in Latin American Cinema explores how contemporary films (2000-2020) participate in the evolution and circulation of images and sounds that in many ways define how indigenous communities are imagined, at a local, regional and global scale. The volume reviews the diversity of portrayals from a chronological, geopolitical, linguistic, epistemic-ontological, transnational, paradigm-changing and self-representational perspective, allocating one chapter to each theme. The corpus of this study consists of 68 fictional features directed by non-indigenous filmmakers, 31 cinematic works produced by indigenous directors/communities, and 22 Cine Regional (Regional Cinema) films. The book also draws upon a significant number of engravings, drawings, paintings, photographs and films, produced between 1493 and 2000, as primary sources for the historical review of the visual representations of indigeneity. Through content and close (textual) analysis, interviews with audiences, surveys and social media posts analysis, the author looks at the contexts in which Latin American films circulate in international festivals and the paradigm shifts introduced by self-representational cinema and Roma (Mexico, 2018). Conclusively, the author provides the foundations of histrionic indigeneity, a theory that explains how overtly histrionic proclivities play a significant role in depictions of an imagined indigenous Other in recent films. Review This is an essential and highly original text that sharpens our understanding of the representation of indigeneity across Latin American cinema. It takes a much-needed interdisciplinary and decolonizing approach that disrupts older paradigms and reveals a richly diverse treatment of indigenous communities in film. --Sarah Barrow, Professor of Film and Media, University of East Anglia, UK About the Author Milton Fernando Gonzalez Rodriguez is a Marie Sklodowska Curie Fellow at the Faculty of Arts, KU Leuven, Belgium, and author of Ontologies and Natures: The Interface of Health and Visual Culture (2022).
