Film, Politics and Human Rights: Vol II
Keywords:
Cinema, Politics, human rightsSynopsis
The book explores the paths that emerge from a body of film production in Córdoba on human rights in general and the last Argentine military dictatorship in particular, as well as other processes of political violence in Latin America. The films Palabras (Mohaded), Treinta y dos (Mohaded), La sensibilidad (Scelso), La sombra azul (Schmucler), Cuentas del alma (Bomheker), Sibila (Arredondo), and Fotos de Familia (Izquierdo) are living pieces of a debate that covers a wide range of topics addressed here: witnesses, survivors' testimonies, “gray areas,” questioning and vindicating the armed struggle, tensions between ethics and politics, the problem of responsibility, intergenerational differences in the reconstruction of history, the role of women and social class in the reconstruction of memory, among others. Captured in interviews and essays, readers will also find in this book the words of the directors of these films.
