CIMS 388 - SPANISH NON-FICTIONAL FILM

SPAN 388
402 | SEM | Luis Moreno-Caballud | MW 3:30-5pm | WILL 320

This course will explore the flourishing of the genre of documentary and non-fiction film in the last decades in Spain. We will study poetic, experimental, and social documentaries in their socio-historical context. For this we will need to engage not only films and film theory texts, but also historical recounts of contemporary Spain. We will also analyze the limits between non-fiction and fiction film, focusing on some recent works that have critically blurred the distinction between both genres.
