Abstract

Three documentary films retake some neglected fights of women in the dawn of the 21st Century in Spain:  Bread riots in 17th century, endurance to the forced confinement during Francoism and resistance to industrial restructuring during PostTransition. Bodies and spaces turn into archive; memory and history are convened there; inside them a new feminist and class archive is built. Nación (Ledo, 2020), Una revuelta sin imágenes (Monsell, 2020) y Una dedicatoria a lo bestia (NucBeade, 2019) look back using historiographical techniques through images; they experiment with the aesthetic possibilities of time, regeneration and phantasmatic film possibilities.  They rebuild history and its women’s embodiment. These films are mostly situated at the industrial margins –low-cost feature film, a short film and a video-essay– but they place themselves at the head of documentary renovation: these films experiment with form, recover nonobvious archive, think about the image and defy the documentary film boundaries, even creating real allegories.
