• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

The films of Bigas Luna is the first comprehensive English-language study of the complete filmography of Spanish filmmaker Bigas Luna, spanning from Tatuaje (1976) to DiDi Hollywood (2010).

Engaging with theoretical frameworks such as haptic cinema, erotic cinema, auteur theory, and studies of gender, sexuality, and national identity, the book situates close readings of Bigas Luna's films within broader discussions of production and marketing. Fouz Hernández draws on extensive archival research-including original screenplays, press materials, and interviews with industry professionals-while engaging with previous scholarship in multiple languages.

Structured into five thematic chapters, the book explores key concerns in Bigas Luna's work, including genre, gender representation, Iberian and Mediterranean identities, and meta-cinematic narratives. It can be read as a cohesive study of his oeuvre or as a reference for specific films.
