Thereafter, this stereotype of the gay character appeared in countless popular comedy films, infallibly the butt of every joke.

Beginning with these foundational representations of homosexuals in film, this book presents a comprehensive analysis of filmic representations of diverse sexualities in Argentine film from the 1930s to the present.
