"Matt Losada's The Projected Nation offers an original, complex, and historiographically comprehensive reading of one of Latin America's most prolifically studied film cultures. Throughout the entire volume, arguments are tightly constructed and systematically supported with the most pertinent, fitting, and, at times, erudite references." — Revista de Estudios Hispánicos"Matt Losada's survey study of the social geographies of Argentine cinema is a truly impressive achievement. Combining anthological knowledge of Argentina's cinematic canon with a solid command of film-analytical method as well and a deft capacity to put close-readings of individual works within wider contexts, including the shifts in production and distribution these respond to, The Projected Nation will become a major reference on the history of Argentine cinema." — Hispanofila"This is an ambitious work that views the spatial imaginary in a full century of film development as informed by national culture and politics." — Marvin D'Lugo, coeditor of The Routledge Companion to Latin American Cinema
