ZAPATA P., Sergio. Images of Difference in Bolivian Cinema. Rev Cien Cult [online]. 2018, vol.22, n.41, pp.55-79. ISSN 2077-3323.

Since 2011, there are films being produced in Bolivia with content aiming to show ethno-cultural and gender difference. These cinema productions are independent and self-managed production schemes. This characteristic opens up the possibility of creating autonomous and even personal works. Films form part of visual culture and belong to the scopic field, which finds itself in an agonistic sphere; that is, a space of continuous conflict and interaction in the making and production of cultural meanings, which is inevitably a battlefield. A topic of dispute in Bolivian cinema is the identity and principles of representing contrasting differences. The films studied for analyzing this phenomenon are Linchamiento (Ronald Bautista, 2011), La chola condenada por su manta de vicuña (Walter and Jaime Machaca, 2012) and Ivy Maraey (Juan Carlos Valdivia, 2012). These three fictional films, with varying production modes, distribution schemes and ambitions within the sphere of cinema, offer a wide perspective on the modification of the principles of representation of ethnocultural and gender differences in contemporary Bolivian cinema. Identified for this firstly is the representation principle of differences based on the cinema and territorial spheres, and then otherness taken to the visual field, indicating the elements of severing and/or continuity of films presently produced in Bolivia in relation to prior periods.

Palavras-chave : contrast; otherness; Bolivian cinema; principles of representation; sphere of cinema.
