Abstract

MIRANDA, Rosa Carpio. Open narratives in the ecuadorian fiction film. Ñawi [online]. 2018, vol.2, n.2, pp.65-88. ISSN 2588-0934.  https://doi.org/10.37785/nw.v2n2.a4.

This article seeks to show the evolution of Ecuadorian cinema from 2006 to 2016 through the analysis of open narratives. For this, we will study three representative films during this time: How Much Further (2006), Pescador (2011), Alba (2016). This inquiry allows us to put into practice concepts of these fields of study in the comparative analysis carried out. It shows that the cinematography of Ecuador is leaving behind the canons of the classic cinema and immerses itself in a non-commercial cinema, the use of new technologies, narrative and expressive resources, evolving every year. Finally, what is intended is to configure a typology of open endings, which sometimes allow the viewer to question and others to imagine or remember.

Keywords : Ecuadorian films; open end; narrativity; script; character psychology.
