Abstract

GARCIA CALDERON, Gerónimo Iván. VIEWS ON QUEER: FILM AND REPRESENTATION. La ventana [online]. 2020, vol.6, n.51, pp.53-86.  Epub Sep 16, 2020. ISSN 1405-9436.  https://doi.org/10.32870/lv.v6i51.7081.

This present reflection explores the idea that cinema operates as a device of power and how, through it, creates images and representations about homosexuality from the dominant discourse of the heteropatriarchy. On the other hand, the margins of how the commercial film vision is constituted are explored, to show that the so-called "cinema queer" is only that reproduction of a certain idea of homosexuality imposed and distributed in our culture by the American hegemonic cultural industry.

Keywords : power; film; heteronormative; queer; representation.
