Colombian woman, violence and cinema of the 20th century

Abstract

The article proposes a rereading of a selected corpus of Colombian films of the 20th century that deal with the subject of bipartisan violence and social conflict, given their particular relationship with the new forms of representation of women as the central character of the story. With the increase in economic stimuli from government initiatives, new aesthetic bets became evident that made visible a greater presence of women in Colombian filmography from the 1960s onwards and it is from this reflection that the analysis set out in the text is developed.
