Formas en conflicto. La práctica cinematográfica como experiencia revolucionaria en “La Blessure”, de N. Klotz

Abstract

Critical thinking about social reality can be represented in cinema, not only through plot, buy also by means of the aesthetic forms making up a film’s dramatic exposition. In this article, we analyze the film La Blessure (2005) by Nicolas Klotz to point to the importance of elements of the mise-en-scène for the articulation of a critique of French immigration policies which focuses on the treatment received in Europe by the population of the old French colonies.
