La bicicleta en el cine de ficción: el medio de transporte del buscavidas

Publications: Contribution to journalArticlePeer Reviewed

Abstract

The bicycle is a motif going back far in history of cinema. But its appearance varies on the screen, because it forms a unity with the cyclist. This means that, in the case of the few feature films made in Latin America, the plot and the world, in which it unfolds, show lonely protagonists living in difficult circumstances. Using the Kafkaesque motif of the labyrinthine castle, some of these films are compared, that incorporate this motif and were shot since the turn of the millennium.
