Introduction: Female Agency in Latin American Films: Women Autonomy and Empowerment over the Patriarchal Gaze
摘要
This is not just a book about Latin American women filmmakers or the female characters in their films. Female Agency in Films Made by Latin American Women is a political project. At a time when the rights of women and LGBTQI+ people are under assault in the United States and elsewhere, this book envisions audiovisual discourse as a means of empowerment, exploring the links between filmmaking and gender-based social activism.
