VARGAS-TRUJILLO, Juan Sebastián. Film Aesthetics in Álvaro Cepeda Samudio’s La casa grande. Íkala [online]. 2023, vol.28, n.1, pp.198-214.  Epub 30-Abr-2023. ISSN 0123-3432.  https://doi.org/10.17533/udea.ikala.v28n1a11.

Drawing on an interdisciplinary approach, this article analyzes the prevailing cinematographic aesthetics in Cepeda Samudio’s La casa grande by means of an unprecedented approach to the literary work in technical terms of cinema, such as shooting plans, spatiality, sound effects, script-type writing, and images. Thus, the purely indicative tendency which was previously used to approach the novel is expanded. The analysis is made on the basis of the author’s biographical background, his artistic influences, and his particular way of approaching a historical event and conveying it through literature. The purpose is to produce an interpretation of La casa grande as if it were a filmic realization based on concrete examples. It is concluded that these filmic characteristics are widespread and original; thus, they establish starting points for further discussions oriented to the presence of sensitive moments and fetish images in Cepeda Samudio’s work.
