SPAN R234 — Latin American and Spanish Film
This course examines cultural identity, historical memory, and social transformation through films by established and emerging directors from Latin America and Spain. Students analyze how cinema serves as a space for resistance, decolonization, and the reimagining of collective identities. Topics include gender, migration, class, media, and representation across diverse communities. Emphasis is placed on inclusive perspectives, including those of Indigenous, Afro-descendant, immigrant, and LGBTQ+ filmmakers and audiences. The course is conducted entirely in Spanish, and all films include Spanish or English subtitles.
