Ideas

• The Spanish civil war. Looking at The Butterfly's Tongue (1999, Jose Luis Cuerda) as an exploration of the origins of the Civil War from the perspective of a Republican child. Possibly also looking at The Spirit of the Beehive.
• Cuba/The Cult of Che Guevara. Focusing on The Motorcycle Diaries or Che. I don't know much about this, but I'm interested in the political context. Also, I'd like to find a Cuban-made film for this topic.
• Patagonian cinema. I'm not sure what topic to do within this - I really like both Historias Minimas and Bombon El Perro (which I've just realised are by the same director), but I would like to compare one of these to something else...? Not sure yet.
• Latin American cinema more broadly. Probably on the topic of revolution, but I'm not sure.
