Cinema Puerto Rico: una antropología visual
Himself
Da un vistazo a Puerto Rico y al cine puertorriqueño a través de películas, documentales y comerciales de distintas épocas, desde principios del siglo XX hasta el cine emergente del presente. En el recorrido, se identifican estrategias visuales y narrativas que retratan fragmentos de la historia general puertorriqueña y que, a su vez, responden a las preguntas de quién, cuándo, y para quién se ha hecho cine en Puerto Rico y los recursos con que se cuenta para hacerlo.

It is a detective story that revolves around unforeseen secrets dealing in the occult and certain passions that only appear to spawn loathing.
