The study of exile cinema, its works and its directors, is a good way to approach and un-
derstand how geographical displacement and cultural heterogeneity originated by Chilean

exile experiences are intimately woven with contemporary perspectives on identity and
nation. As an essential task that parallels the importance of continuing to recover and
promote productions filmed during exile, there should also be more critical studies of these
works and their filmmakers; studies that shouldn’t only focus on the work of recognized
male directors. In addition, this study asks not just for the recovery of these works, but for
wide national accessibility to them. This article aims to show how films directed by exiled
women such as Angelina Vázquez deserve more visibility and recognition.
