The Spanish Quinqui Film: Delinquency, Sound, Sensation

By Tom Whittaker

Book Overview

This is first English-language study of cine quinqui, a cycle of Spanish delinquent-themed films made in the 1970s and 1980s. Exploring how the films reflected the auditory experience of marginal youth cultures during this period, the book casts new light on the criminological, economic and political fault lines of Spain's transition to democracy.
