What this signals, more than thriving financial or production infrastructures, is a renovated cinematic vision connected more closely to everyday experience and social and cultural concerns. The films analyzed in this new collection reflect and examine contemporary lives in their diversity and singularity, through their focus on identity politics, sexuality, the body, the family, and/or community. Drawing especially on Jean-Luc Nancyʹs notion of inoperative community' and Enrique Dussel's critique of modernity, ' the essays here weave together a progression that stresses the breakdown of the nation-state in Latin America and the search for new communal settings. The nation-state's breakdown is linked to modernity's homogenizing project and its concomitant hierarchies that, in seeking to impose order and progress, have alienated those who do not conform to conventional norms. In response, Nancy offers the concept of inoperative community', which questions current forms of operative' communities that do not allow for individuation, and implies instead the recognition of plurality and singularity and replacement of hierarchies by horizontal and transversal connections. -- Back cover. 530 Issued also in electronic format. 546 Includes some text in French and Spanish. 650 0 Motion pictures|xSocial aspects|zLatin America |vCongresses. 650 0 Communities in motion pictures|vCongresses. 650 7 Communities in motion pictures.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01902865 650 7 Motion pictures|xSocial aspects.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01027384 650 7 Film.|2idszbz 650 7 Film|xhistoria.|2sao 651 7 Latin America.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01245945 651 7 Lateinamerika.|2idszbz 655 7 Conference papers and proceedings.|2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01423772 700 1 Bermúdez Barrios, Nayibe. 830 0 Latin American and Caribbean series ;|v9. 956 20160324 |bpfmcq|cCC 957 OCLC xref loaded 20160403 994 C0|bCUY
