In the late 1990s and early twenty-first century, the Argentine cinema has experienced a vigorous recovery in its national production in which there was the emergence of new filmmakers who won several awards at festivals and got a wide world repercussions and notoriety. This cinema has attracted the interest from critics and audiences for a variety of factors, among which we highlight an exemplary and exciting renewal of its language. In addition, the viability of independent production grounded on low costs. This resumption of production experienced by the Argentine cinema at the turn of the century was simultaneously a social, economic and institutional crisis occurred in December 2001. This fact has enhanced the meanings of Argentine nuevo cine because of the capacity of dialoguing that certain works presented in relation to the historical moment experienced by the country. Thus, this dissertation aims to analyze, using reference works, the representations of contemporary Argentine cinema in Argentina, investigating which narrative structures and cinematographic styles were used in the construction of these works and the crisis that they represent. The aim is also to understand the subjects, plots, spaces and relations with the institutions selected in the construct of contemporary Argentina and its crisis. Thus, it is possible to analyze the historicity of this cinema, and the ramifications involved in the representations constructed by cinematographic writing (AU) | |
