Ecuadorian cinema for the 21st century would be the first major publication in English to fill this gap. It provides a thorough account of film activities during the new millennium, while also referring to the country?s previous film history. Specifically, this book discusses the so-called ?mini-boom? in Ecuadorian cinema, and its relation to industry structures, film policy, and the context of Socialism for the 21st century, hence the chosen terminology of ?Ecuadorian cinema for the 21st century?. What makes this project distinctive, aside from the originality of its content, is its transdisciplinary methodology. As a means to frame the textual analysis of selected films, this book discusses theories on national cinemas, memory, political ideology, and production practices, in an interdisciplinary approach that can be emulated in later projects. For this purpose, the book is divided into five chapters, in addition to a brief introduction and conclusion. Each chapter relies on specific case studies to discuss local narratives and documentaries, whether state sponsored or privately funded, centring primarily on films that premiered in commercial theatres between 2006 and 2016. Dr María Fernanda Miño Puga is an Associate Lecturer at the University of St Andrews, Department of Film Studies, UK. She specialises in contemporary Ecuadorian cinema and indigenous film and media, with previous publications on documentary and collective memory. She holds a PhD from the University of Saint Andrews and this is her first monograph. 606 $aMotion pictures, American 606 $aLatin American Film and TV 615 0$aMotion pictures, American. 615 14$aLatin American Film and TV. 676 $a791.4098 700 $aFernanda Miño Puga$b María$01432957 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 912 $a9910751397803321 996 $aEcuadorian Cinema for the 21st Century$93578013 997 $aUNINA
