| Summary |
"Indiscreet Fantasies: Iberian Queer Cinema is a collection of fifteen essays, each focusing on a queer film by a prominent Iberian filmmaker. The films studied here span nearly five decades, beginning with Narciso Ibáñez Serrador's La residencia (The House That Screamed, 1970) and ending with João Pedro Rodrigues' O ornitólogo (The Ornithologist, 2016). The first of its kind for English-speaking readers, this book examines the work of filmmakers Ventura Pons, Cesc Gay, Marta Balletbò-Coll, Paulo Rocha, Roberto Castón, Ignacio Vilar, and Pedro Almodóvar, among others, from various Iberian cultural and linguistic cultures, including that of Portugal, Catalonia, Galicia, and the Basque Country. Rather than presenting a historical survey of Iberian queer films, Indiscreet Fantasies encourages a deep reading of each film, sends readers to other related films/writings, and fosters meditation on the ways these films cast light on particular moments and aspects of contemporary Iberian queer issues in history and society"-- Provided by publisher |
