Main Article Content
Abstract
The study of exile cinema, its works and its directors, is a good way to approach and understand how geographical displacement and cultural heterogeneity originated by Chilean exile experiences are intimately woven with contemporary perspectives on identity and nation. As an essential task that parallels the importance of continuing to recover and promote productions filmed during exile, there should also be more critical studies of these works and their filmmakers; studies that shouldn’t only focus on the work of recognized male directors. In addition, this study asks not just for the recovery of these works, but for wide national accessibility to them. This article aims to show how films directed by exiled women such as Angelina Vázquez deserve more visibility and recognition.
