Abstract

Cinema and serial fiction, including animation, are transmitters of models, attitudes, values and norms of behavior which are replicated, consciously and unconsciously, by citizens, and also they reflect it. This double aspect of the cause and consequence of existing social patterns explains the interest of the scientific community in determining the implications of the prejudices they maintain and how they work to overcome them. That is why film works are approached in this volume, mostly starring women, with feminist analysis methodologies, which transcend the male gaze and face the problem of fictional character agency.
