Film Censorship in Argentina

This project will survey, identify, and catalog the Museo del Cine Pablo Ducrós Hicken’s clippings collection. In particular, the project will focus on documenting materials related to the Ente de Calificación Cinematográfica (Film Censorship Committee) that was in charge of the revision and approval of scripts, films and releases in Argentina (1969–1984). These documents include newspaper articles, editorials, interviews, postcards and private notes. The project will also seek copyright holders’ authorization for future digitization and open access publishing of the documents.
