La Cinemateca del Tercer Mundo (C3M) es un fenómeno que ha sido poco estudiado en el Uruguay. Fundada el 8 de noviembre de 1969, este movimiento, constituido por jóvenes intelectuales pertenecientes a la generación del sesenta, concibe al cine como parte de una militancia política que se inscribe dentro de las coordenadas de la izquierda uruguaya. Si bien la cinemateca se extendió por un breve lapso de tiempo (noviembre de 1969–julio de 1974) dejó, a través de sus filmes y la publicación de la revista Cine del Tercer Mundo, una marca en el cine y la crítica uruguayos.Ya no será una idea en la cabeza y una cámara en la mano, como sostiene Glauber Rocha, sino una cámara en la mano que, a modo de ametralladora, hace del cine un lugar de acción y de lucha política. Con el paso del tiempo el cine político, elaborado por la C3M, quedó en el olvido, producto de las condiciones políticas que generó el golpe de estado; sin embargo en el marco del cine uruguayo se hace relevante analizar, no solo sus filmes, sino sus ensayos teóricos, testimonios y análisis sobre lo cinematográfico que fundamentan la institución así como el Nuevo Cine Latinoamericano. Este trabajo pretende discutir el papel que jugó la C3M a principios de la década del setenta y el modo en que el cine desarrollado por este colectivo pasó a formar parte de la memoria social y cinematográfica del país.
