Sumario:I have been studying the adoption of children in Argentine history for years. I arrived to the subject through court records and now I want to know what the cinema can teach me about it: what do the films show us about the history of adoption in our country? In this work I intend to think about how cinema and social history can be nurtured in a research project. This methodological exercise leads me to the exploration of two sets of literature or disciplinary areas: social and cultural history and the history of cinema. With the contributions of both I analyze a handful of films by different authors of classic Argentine cinema. From this double exploration, bibliographical and documentary, I propose an idea about cinema and adoption in Argentine history.
