Description
This monograph addresses the twenty-first century upsurge in Gothic screen media emanating from the Autonomous Basque Community, Euskadi, in Northern Spain. The book focuses on online video sharing, streaming and social media platforms, demonstrating the impact of multi-national co-production and distribution on the development of Basque film production; looking to the future of regional production in the digital era. This monograph fills a critical gap, presenting Basque Gothic screen media as a regionalist challenge to national models of cinema and identity. Wynne-Walsh establishes Basque Gothic as an expression of transgenerational trauma engendered by a history of state-suppression and socio-political violence. This regional iteration of the mode is addressed as a window into community perception and projection. While this project centres a Basque case study, it establishes a model for the reimagination of critical approaches to global, twenty-first century screen cultures.

New Basque Gothic addresses the twenty-first century upsurge in Gothic screen media emerging from the Autonomous Basque Community, Euskadi, in Northern Spain. Focusing on online video sharing, streaming and social media platforms, this book demonstrates the impact of multinational co-production and distribution on the development of Basque film production and explores the future of regional production in the digital era. Filling a critical gap, it presents Basque Gothic screen media as a regionalist challenge to national models of cinema and identity, it establishes Basque Gothic as an expression of transgenerational trauma engendered by a history of state-suppression and socio-political violence. This regional iteration of the model offers insight into community perception and projection. Regionalism holds great value for future cultural and film studies endeavours, challenging national singularity and delineating the nuances of interstitial cultural identities. Without regionalist approaches, elements such as language, folklore, locations, political references, and music can be misinterpreted. Centered on a Basque case study, this book establishes a model for the reimagination of critical approaches to global, twenty-first-century screen cultures.
