Allegories Of Underdevelopment: Aesthetics and Politics in Modern Brazilian Cinema
Ismail Xavier
Examines the centrality of Cinema Novo to film-making in Brazil. Focusing on film makers' use of narrative allegories for the "conservative modernization" Brazil and other nations underwent in the 1960s and 1970s, the author asks questions relating to the connection between film and history.
