Abstract

This study aims to give a brief mapping of the fictional musical cinema in Latin America, in order to understand how different Latin cinematography appropriated the musical format and how it spoke with local cultural traditions, especially of film and popular music, to develop. We seek therefore address how the fictional musical is linked to the history of Latin American cinema and the national and cultural identity issues that constantly emerge from these movies.
