Spanish Cinema in the Global Context (eBook, PDF)

Film on Film

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

Focusing on films in the contemporary Spanish context that in some way reflect back on themselves and the processes of their own production, that purposefully blur the distinction between reality and fiction, or that draw attention to the various modes of cinematic exhibition and reception, Amago proposes ways in which these vocabularies can be employed to understand Spanish national cinemas today as imbedded within a dynamic global system.
