This edited volume offers a wide-ranging picture of Argentine women filmmakers’ contribution to the film industry from the 1980s to the present by bringing together the work of highly acclaimed and emerging directors. Through thirteen critical essays by leading scholars in the field of Argentine cinema, the book acknowledges that contemporary women filmmakers have transformed the cinema of Argentina by questioning, challenging and debunking hegemonic patriarchal systems of representation. With a focus on women’s voices and experiences, the contributions redress both the under-representation of women and girls onscreen and the perpetuation of stereotypes, while exploring the innovative aesthetics used by these filmmakers. “This is the first book in English dedicated to the rich output of recent Argentine women filmmakers and features work by leading experts. A comprehensive, and well researched book that tells multiple stories of women’s filmmaking in Argentina.” – Deborah Shaw, Professor of Film and Screen Studies, University of Portsmouth, UK Dr Mirna Vohnsen is Assistant Lecturer in Spanish at Technological University Dublin.
