About this book

The objective of this study is to reflect on different forms of intolerance, as they are shown in a cluster of films of Spanish-American and Spanish filmography. The abuses of the Catholic Church, racism, sexism, xenophobia, authoritarianism, political and economic corruption, homophobia, and violence against minorities are at the core of these pages. Global instability and its effects on Spanish-speaking societies frame the reflections and the analysis of the films being examined, offering a broad spectrum of views on sectarianism in an increasingly virtual and polarized world.
