- Summary
- "Director, actress, scriptwriter and producer, Iciar Bollaín is one of the liveliest of contemporary young Spanish filmmakers and the first Spanish female director to have had a film (También la lluvia, 2010) shortlisted by the American Film Academy. Through detailed analysis of film form, socio-cultural contexts and conditions of production and consumption, the book opens up key issues on gender, film authorship, the mediation of socio-historical realities and the whole question of 'women's cinema'. Covering all aspects of her filmography, this book begins by taking in her work in front of the camera, starting with her emergence as a teenage star in Victor Erice's El Sur (1983), and following on with discussions of her mature roles, such as Un paraguas para tres and Leo. Discussion of her work as a producer and director addresses industrial, aesthetic and ideological aspects in films that engage with vibrant contemporary themes"--Dust jacket.
