Reviews
"""Reflecting an impressive theoretical grasp of an area of screen culture whose interdisciplinary contours are complex and shifting at a fast pace, Jennifer Nagtegaal's timely study of non-fiction animation from Spain and Latin America showcases close reading at its very best: an inestimable scholarly asset adroitly deployed across the book's several case studies, which are expertly attuned not only to the medium's engagement with the sociopolitical but also to matters of sound, music, motion, eye movement, colour, line style, and a host of other audiovisual dimensions of the animated form."" - Matthew J. Marr, Associate Professor of Spanish, Pennsylvania State University ""What a wonderfully illuminating and rich book! Nagtegaal expertly balances engaging prose with academic precision as she refocuses animated documentary discourse on politics and Hispanic cinema. This book is a fantastic addition to the field that pushes it forward in new and exciting directions and offers a very welcome corrective to the Anglocentric tendencies of existing scholarship."" - Annabelle Honess Roe, Senior Lecturer in Film Studies, University of Surrey"
