OverviewThe Films of Elias Querejeta: A Producer of Landscapes is the first book in English to explore the career of Spain's most important producer. Through their recurring emphasis on landscape, his films have consistently documented a country in the grip of modernization from the 1960s to the present day. In particular, this book investigates the ways in which landscape in his productions can be understood as a site of political struggle against Francoism and Spain's embrace of neoliberal capitalism. In bringing together both the importance of cinematic and spatial production, the twin focus of this book intends not only to make an original contribution to Film Studies, but also to Spanish Cultural Studies and Cultural Geography Full Product DetailsAuthor: Tom WhittakerPublisher: University of Wales Press Imprint: University of Wales Press Dimensions: Width: 15.60cm , Height: 1.50cm , Length: 23.40cm Weight: 0.295kg ISBN: 9780708324387ISBN 10: 070832438 Pages: 240 Publication Date: 31 October 2011 Audience: Professional and scholarly , Professional & Vocational , Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly Format: Paperback Publisher's Status: Active Availability: Out of stock The supplier is temporarily out of stock of this item.
