Indigeneity in Latin American Cinema
«This is an essential and highly original text that sharpens our understanding of the representation of indigeneity across Latin American cinema. It takes a much-needed interdisciplinary and decolonizing approach that disrupts older paradigms and reveals a richly diverse treatment of indigenous communities in film.»
Sarah Barrow, Professor of Film and Media, University of East Anglia, UK

«Indigeneity in Latin American Cinema is a tour de force; this book takes a bold approach to examining how contemporary indigenous representation in Latin American cinema has been subject to racist and othering practices through what Gonzalez Rodriguez convincingly calls “histrionic indigeneity” as these films circulate through international film festivals and other Global South-North trajectories. This frank look at contemporary practices is a must read for any scholars interested in the ways in which indigenous visual culture and the cinema has been imagined historically to the present day.»
Tamara L. Falicov, author of Latin American Film Industries and the Cinematic Tango: Contemporary Ar
«This book succeeds in going beyond the traditional approach in studying the Amerindian in global northern visual culture. In fact, anyone interested in the colonial heritage of the Americas should take careful note of the author’s conclusions.»
Arij Ouweneel, former professor of Amerindian Studies Utrecht University and the University of Amste
«Gonzalez Rodriguez goes beyond traditional paradigms to offer an original, decolonizing approach yielding many provocative new cultural insights.»
