Abstract

The scholarship on Latin American film in 2019 speaks of the rich and diverse critical studies that are being conducted in the field. This year the studies encompass a wide range of topics, like the role of Netflix in the production, distribution and consumption of Latin American films; the contention between national cinemas and transnationalism; and the re-examination of films made in the last century. Although publications showcasing the cinemas of Argentina, Mexico and Cuba continue to dominate the field, two special issues have been published shedding light on lesser-studied cinemas, Studies in Spanish and Latin American Cinemas has dedicated an issue to Uruguayan cinema whereas Secuencias: Revista de Historia del Cine has devoted its 2019 issue to Bolivian cinema.
