The internationalization of the seventh art
Main Article Content
Abstract
Understanding certain aspects of International Relations requires the understanding of modern elements of the entertainment spectrum such as television or cinema. However, the latter unlocks an expanding educational potential about the international, social and cultural dynamics of the contemporary world. The seventh art has managed to expose the processes of globalization that show the generational changes, stone the societies and grant opportunities to certain local actors that have historically been marginalized. In addition, today's cinema is a very effective tool when it comes to breaking down real and imaginary borders thanks to the ease in which different actors converge with different backgrounds and varied contexts. Likewise, large productions have opted for regional and international collaboration and filming in different countries and regions of the world. Because of all this, cinema has ceased to be an element focused solely on entertainment to become a weapon of empowerment, unification, and cooperation.
