Referring to these films as New MaricÓn Cinema, Vinodh Venkatesh argues that they represent a distinct break from what he terms MaricÓn Cinema, or a cinema that deals with sex and gender difference through an ethically and visually disaffected position, exemplified in films such as \u003ci\u003eFresa y chocolate\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eNo se lo digas a nadie\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eEl lugar sin lÍmites\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCovering feature films from Argentina, Chile, Cuba, Ecuador, Mexico, Peru, the United States, and Venezuela, \u003ci\u003eNew MaricÓn Cinema\u003c\/i\u003e is the first study to contextualize and analyze recent homo-\/trans-\/intersexed-themed cinema in Latin America within a broader historical and aesthetic genealogy. Working with theories of affect, circulation, and orientations, Venkatesh examines key scenes in the work of auteurs such as Marco Berger, Javier Fuentes-LeÓn, and Julia Solomonoff and in films including \u003ci\u003eAntes que anochezca\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eY tu mamÁ tambiÉn\u003c\/i\u003e to show how their use of an affective poetics situates and regenerates viewers in an ethically productive cinematic space. He further demonstrates that New MaricÓn Cinema has encouraged the production of “gay friendly” commercial films for popular audiences, which reflects wider sociocultural changes regarding gender difference and civil rights that are occurring in Latin America.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePreface\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAcknowledgments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntroduction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePart I: MaricÓ\u003cbr\u003en Cinema \u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1. \u003ci\u003eFicheras\u003c\/i\u003e and Jotos in Mexican Cinema: We Just Want to Be Seen!\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2.
