Abstract

Over the past half century, plot-driven Chilean cinema has deployed a variety of examples of membership and belonging to different identities, individual and collective, inherited or voluntarily assumed. This essay asks about human types present in film and proposes that it is possible to detect and study the presence of identity spaces in Chilean cinema and determine how identities come into play when political contingencies or the spirit of an age question the inertia of groups and individuals. This is presented in the context of a larger interpretive framework: the ability to understand different aspects of history, society and Chilean culture through film.
