Description
Summary:Vikingo (Argentina, 2009), from Campusano, is a case of reversal of the road movie made by the community cinema of Buenos Aires, understood as a driver of social inclusion, as a visibility and self-legitimation that empowers social sectors where it is developed. This inclusion is seen in the emancipated production of singular aesthetic contents and appropriations, symbolic production understood as political action given the struggle that it incarnates against the stigmatizations of poverty done by other cinemas and mass media. Campusano reverses the road movie to initiate an ethical discussion on characters who inhabit a landscape of corrupt institutions and violence.
