DESCRIPTION
This course maps out a comprehensive view on Spanish cinema attending to its industrial, historic, social, political, ideological and artistic dimensions. Cinema is here interpreted as a major resource to promote cultural analysis and as a fascinating object of study in order to better grasp the processes of identity and nation-building at work in any cultural or national space. Through the critical analysis of filmic representations students will be introduced to the discussion on relevant theories and concepts in relation to contemporary cultural theory. Students will also gain knowledge of the technical vocabulary required to introduce the necessary filmmaking theory and will analyze, in highly practical fashion, the different creative styles that have marked the cinematography of Spain.
