Representing history, class, and gender in Spain and Latin America: children and adolescents in film

This collection focuses on children and adolescents in Latin American and Spanish cinema from 1960 to the present as witnesses and objects of the spectatorial gaze. The carefully chosen essays survey the representation of the past and the definition of gender and class identity as experienced by young protagonists in films. This volume offers an interdisciplinary approach to the study of Latin American and Spanish film as well as gender studies. Some of the questions addressed in this collection are: what do children and adolescents in Latin American and Spanish film see and how are they seen?
