Résumé
The so-called « primitive » American cinema rarely used an authentic Ibero-American to portray a Mexican. In accordance with a set of new values born in the wake of Civil Rights policies, American nationalism and ethnocentrism are slowly disappearing from the screen. Chicano cinema is working towards the rehabilitation of Chicanos through the elimination of cultural stereoptypes, a deconstruction of the historical anglo-american canon and the exposure of a still racist society.
