La mirada queer en el cine
Cinema is a powerful means of expression that not only reflects the society in which it is embedded but also shapes its imaginaries and narratives. La mirada queer en el cine, by Leandro Palencia, is an essential work for those seeking to understand how the seventh art has constructed and represented diversity in terms of gender, sexuality, race, class, and functional diversity.
This book, which approaches the format of a manual without losing its analytical depth, offers a critical and accessible overview of the ways cinema reinforces, or sometimes challenges, the dominant structures of white patriarchal capitalism.
To explore these issues, the author guides the reader through the analysis of fifty fundamental films, while also mentioning more than two hundred productions from different nationalities and eras. Far from focusing solely on conventional LGTBIQ+ cinema or anecdotal representations, La mirada queer en el cine delves into key aspects such as gender violence, heteropatriarchy, sisterhood, heteronormativity, and homosocial bonds, among others.
As a complement to its deep analysis, the work includes a glossary of approximately one hundred key terms, facilitating the understanding of the most relevant concepts in film studies and queer theory.
