Abstract

THE new generation of Latin American film makers is an historically oriented group. It is producing a lengthening list of films which can aid historians in their study and teaching of the past. Many of their films deserve a prominent place in our classrooms. The intention of this brief essay is to introduce some of the outstanding Latin American film makers and their films to educators in the United States. The recommendations are based on my use of these films in a variety of film-centered courses, the most recent of which focused on Latin American social history.
