Cine Queer de producción nacional : análisis de los casos Feriado (2014), El secreto de Magdalena (2015) y Versátil: Sin prejuicios (2017).

Abstract

The cinema has been a space of representation of diverse reality, nevertheless it´s been found dominated by everyday life accepted by the society of power. The roles outside of heteronormative have been projected with passive characters that have become or object of contemplation - desire or derision - discrimination. Against this background, the counter-cinema and queer identity is presented as a counterpoint to the conventional construction of the genre and characters´ roles. From the analysis of 1) discursive elements, 2) gender constructions in filmic contents and 3) processes of reception of queer cinema of national production; this research work will review the Ecuadorian films Holiday (2014) by Diego Araujo, El secreto de Magdalena (2015) by Josué Miranda and Versátiles: Sin Prejuicio (2016) by Elio Peláez. With the aim of the thesis project, a hermeneutic analytical study of the cinematographic aspects that allow the understanding of the productions of the counter-cinema queer as a subversive proposal towards conventional film narratives - heteronormative.
