De la invisibilidad a la reparación: el largo camino de las mujeres víctimas del terrorismo y su construcción en el cine.

Abstract

Since 2001, filmmakers have reflected in their works the consequences of terrorism on those women who, directly or indirectly, have been victims of political violence. This article analyzes the cinematographic treatment given to these victims in four countries - Ireland, Germany, Italy and Spain - after the terrorist groups laid down their arms. The objective is to know the differences and similarities of the stereotypes proposed in the films. Those women who were silenced during the hardest years of the armed struggle will now be defined with characteristics that serve as a universal model to understand the role of women in society after conflicts.
