  • Modernization was a central question for Brazilian intelligentsia in the first six decades of the twentieth century.

    Brazilian cinema faced it with a double objective to fulfil: to industrialize the activity and give it an artistic status acceptable to foreign standards. From the thirties to the fifties, when American control over the local market became a reality, the history of Brazilian film studios show how the search for the two mentioned goals involved the cinema community as a abstract whole.
