Propuesta de defensa de derechos culturales desde la producción de contenidos de animación para la divulgación de la memoria histórica del Ecuador

Abstract

Abstract:The contents of an animation film made in Ecuador that is committed to the defense of cultural rights, from their particular production conditions and their aesthetic and narrative versatility, are a clear and forceful commitment to the dissemination of knowledge and the preservation of the historical memory of the nation and its culture. These contents become cultural assets of the country and form active and critical spectators, since they provide a powerful audiovisual experience based on the use of cinematographic language and whose development (still in the making) is supported by the film industry in Ecuador and by the increasing demand for content in animation film markets around the globe. The present theme of the thesis investigates the possibilities of animation cinema (from public policies, cultural industries strategies, etc.), to guarantee the right to knowledge, access and enjoyment of historical memory and the right to seek, receive and disseminate information that contributes to the construction of our identity and cultural diversity, as fundamental elements of our survival as a people.
