LEE PENAGOS, Juan Camilo. The Literary Beginning of Filmmaker Octavio Getino: Realism and Dehumanization in Chulleca. Latinoamérica [online]. 2019, n.69, pp.161-189. ISSN 2448-6914.  https://doi.org/10.22201/cialc.24486914e.2019.69.57136.

Octavio Getino, a well-known filmmaker, started his trajectory as an artist in the literary world. This article studies his first and only short stories book Chulleca (1964), pointing the way it is inscribed in the political and aesthetical discussions, in Argentina and Latin America. The book presents a look at the “reification” and “alienation” of workers, their “dehumanization”, recalling Marxist ideas and the philosophy of Enrique Dussel. As we know, this is the first study of Getino’s book.
