Abstract

BONACCORSI, Nélida  and  DIETRICH, Daniela. A new outlook, another languaje, another lens: when the camera is handled by a woman. Aljaba [online]. 2008, vol.12, pp.85-95. ISSN 1669-5704.

In the folowing article we want to rethink the cinema directed by women and analize the artistic production of women cinema-makers from Neuquen, mainly some short films which focus on women we go into three 10-to-15- minutes long films and we analize the issues dealt within each, where the lens is focused, the characteristics used to introduced the characters, the way the characters are described in general. The selected short films have emerged from a feministic approach. However, these are some of the exceptions in production of the presented directors since the rest of their production as well as the ones by other colleagues reproduce a male chauvinistic approach. We feel that when the camera is handled by awoman some femenine touches can be percieved.

Keywords : Cinema makers from Neuquen; Short films; A new outlook.
