Review of Núñez y Troyano (Coords.) (2011) La violencia machista en el cine. Materiales para una intervención psico-social

Abstract

Throughout its chapters, the book develops strategies for addressing gender-based violence as seen in cinema and from a psychosocial perspective. The work offers constructive criticism of the way in which gender-based violence is experienced as a social scourge, where women are abused and murdered simply for being women.
