About this book

An expanded translation of the groundbreaking book on Colombian cinema, this work addresses not only the inadequate distribution of criticism on Colombian cinema outside Latin America, but also employs an interdisciplinary focus that combines historical, anthropological, and sociological approaches to the country's culture.

Reviews

"Dense but fascinating reading,this a book for specialists in film studies, Latin American studies, and cultural studies. Suárez writes with solid theoretical grounding regarding both feature films and documentaries by Colombian cineasts. Summing Up: Highly recommended. Graduate students and researchers." - CHOICE
