LLORCA, Joaquín. Film, City, and Architecture: Methodological Notes: the Case of The Cali Group. CS [online]. 2012, n.9, pp.367-390. ISSN 2011-0324.  https://doi.org/10.18046/recs.i9.1226.

Delving into the cultural references suggested by the staging of films, this article analyzes the representations of the city of Cali in terms of space and image in the six fiction films created by the Cali Group, consisting of Andrés Caicedo, Carlos Mayolo and Luis Ospina, between 1971 and 1985. It both presents a review of the approach taken to study the city and its architecture through film image and proposes an approach to its space-time dimension through the concept of ''chronotope''. This analysis will serve as the basis for establishing the tension between tradition and latent modernity within art and the city.

Keywords : Film; City; Architecture; Cali; Chronotope; the Cali Group.
