| Sumario: | For History, cinema matters because it is part of the symbolic relations intervention in concrete relations. This idea can be applied to the construing of the regions; that is, film discourse is also part of this construing. The purpose of this paper is to analyse the representations of the economic activities in movies filmed in Patagonia by the Argentinean film industry between 1985 and 2006. To wonder how the economic activities are represented allows us to ask ourselves whether the films express the region’s historicity or, on the contrary, show a mythicized region. The films under analysis help us understand how the forms of neoliberalism in Patagonia have been thought of and felt. That is, the films are part of the memory and identities that are construed in/for the region. |
