The book reviews the diversity of portrayals and draws upon primary sources for a historical review of visual representations. It concludes with a theory of histrionic indigeneity, which explains how proclivities play a significant role in depictions of an imagined indigenous Other in recent films. \u003c\/blockquote\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hardback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 336 pages\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublication date\u003c\/strong\u003e: 25 August 2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bloomsbury Publishing Plc\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIndigeneity in Latin American Cinema delves into the captivating realm of how contemporary films (2000-2020) actively contribute to the evolution and widespread dissemination of images and sounds that shape the perception of indigenous communities on a local, regional, and global scale. This comprehensive volume offers a thorough examination of the diverse portrayals across various dimensions, including chronological, geopolitical, linguistic, epistemic-ontological, transnational, and intersectional perspectives. It employs a paradigm-shifting and self-representational approach, dedicating one chapter to each thematic exploration. The study's corpus comprises a diverse array of 68 fictional features directed by non-indigenous filmmakers, 31 cinematic works created by indigenous directors\/communities, and 22 Cine Regional (Regional Cinema) films. Additionally, the book draws upon a rich collection of engravings, drawings, paintings, photographs, and films produced between 1493 and 2000, serving as primary sources for a historical review of the visual representations of indigeneity. Through a meticulous content and close textual analysis, complemented by interviews with audiences, surveys, and social media posts analysis, the author delves into the contexts in which Latin American films resonate at international festivals and the transformative shifts brought about by self-representational cinema and Roma (Mexico, 2018). In conclusion, the author presents the foundational framework of histrionic indigeneity, a theory that sheds light on the prominent role of overtly histrionic tendencies in depicting imagined indigenous Others in recent films.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 229 x 152 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781501384707\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Milton Fernando GonzalezRodriguez","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44094413471994,"sku":"9781501384707","price":117.81,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1662729429467_book.jpg?v=1662841045","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/indigeneity-in-latin-american-cinema-9781501384707","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
