This course will enhance students' critical and analytical reading and writing skills through a study of cinematic production in Hispanic America and Brazil from 1990-2012. The emphasis will be on the shift in cinema from national and historical themes to a cinema that reflects a diverse and interconnected world. Students will use cinematographic terminology and read film criticism to explore and discuss themes related to the conquest of the New World, feminism, neoliberalism, hierarchies of ethnicity, race and social class as well as human migration and trafficking.
