DESCRIPTION
Latin Americans seek their identity through art. This allows them to integrate their vision of themselves with their world. This course approaches the Latin American condition not only from the historical, but also from the cultural aspect and the film itself. Through film it is possible to see multicultural issues on the continent, taking into account each country to conform to Latin America has developed a distinctive culture. The cinematic approach, then, reflect this multiculturalism: films will be screened for Chilean, German, Danish and British directors to demonstrate the richness present in Latin America.
