| Title | Representing the Spanish Civil War: Socialist Realist Nonfiction Filmmaking |
| Summary | This MA Thesis aims to analyze the representations of the Spanish Civil War through the Socialist Realist nonfiction cinema by examining three different types of films. Roman Karmen’s newsreels On the Events of Spain, Esfir Shub Ispanija and Joris Ivens The Spanish Earth. It describes this representation baring in mind an interdisciplinary approach of historical contextualization, film theory and technical cinematic analysis. By laying down the definitions and elements of nonfiction film, it gives a theoretical and methodological framework. Giving an overview of the development of nonfiction film in the Soviet Union it contextualizes the analysis that is further developed through the introduction of the filmmakers, the description of the narrative and giving a final overall analysis of how the meaning was constructed. |
