DESCRIPTION
This course will investigate the creation of contemporary identities through "Spanish" films and cinematic form. Students will critically examine the notion of a "national cinema"; the role cinema plays in constructing our stories; cinema?s impact on shifting ideas of what constitutes the human condition; and where and how issues of gender, sexuality, class, and ethnicity surface in cinematic articulations of the relationship between national identity, global trends, and personal history.
