Publisher's Synopsis
Published in a bilingual format, this unique collection of articles by leading film directors of 10 Latin American countries presents a diverse and refreshing view of Latin American audiovisual vitality. The filmmakers who have contributed their time and effort to offer their perspectives of the directions of the film industry in their respective countries are as diverse as the region's cinema itself. Several, such as Bruno Barreto (Brasil) and Andres Wood (Chile), are veterans in their country's film industry with worldwide recognition and prizes, while others, such as Sebastian Cordero (Ecuador) and Hernan Jabes (Venezuela), are new generation representatives of the latest rich and often niche expressions in their countries' cinema.
