Abstract
El periodo comprendido entre 1943 y 1949 constituye una etapa privilegiada y peculiar en las relaciones ibéricas que influye significativamente en el ámbito cinematográfico. En unos años en los que el cine es la principal herramienta de propaganda, España y Portugal, naciones afines política e ideológicamente, cooperan con unos objetivos comunes marcados por las dificultades económicas de ambos y por su neutralidad en la Segunda Guerra Mundial. Dos industrias cinematográficas en fase de desarrollo coproducen once títulos durante el citado espacio temporal, a los que nos aproximamos desde las perspectivas de la producción y la distribución, relacionándolas con el entorno en el que tienen lugar. A través del trabajo de campo, en el que principalmente consultamos fondos del Archivo General de la Administración de Alcalá de Henares, del Arquivo Nacional Torre do Tombo de Lisboa, de la Filmoteca Española y de la Cinemateca Portuguesa, realizamos una revisión histórico-descriptiva de las películas objeto de estudio con el fin de constatar el auge de la colaboración en el espacio ibérico y señalar las causas que lo provocan. Mediante el estudio cronológico de estas once películas, identificamos sus características comunes y más significativas, situándolas dentro de los contextos cinematográfico, social, político y económico de cada país, estableciendo relaciones entre ellos. Además, complementamos los datos recabados mediante una revisión crítica de las aportaciones teóricas vertidas sobre la materia. Nuestra investigación supone una contribución a la historia de la cinematografía en la que, además de aportar y analizar datos técnicos, artísticos y políticos, establecemos las bases de la coproducción cinematográfica hispano-portuguesa en nuestros días. La colaboración ibérica durante los siete años estudiados supone un periodo aislado en la historia cinematográfica conjunta, que no tiene continuidad en el tiempo, lo que imposibilita la consolidación del espacio audiovisual peninsular creado...
The 1943-1949 period represents an extraordinary and peculiar stage of the Iberian relations, which has a significant effect in the film industry. Over the course of those years, cinema is the main propaganda tool. Spain and Portugal who share political and ideological ideas cooperate towards common objectives marked by their financial problems and their position of neutrality during World War II. We will approach two developing film industries, that co-produce eleven films during those years, from the production and distribution points of view, which we will relate with the environment in which they take place. Through fieldwork, carried out consulting collections of the Archivo General de la Administración of Alcalá de Henares, the Arquivo Nacional Torre do Tombo of Lisbon, the Filmoteca Española and the Cinemateca Portuguesa, we undertake a historical and descriptive overview of the films in order to verify the rise of Iberian film co-productions and the reasons that cause them. Through a chronological study of the films, we identify their most significant and common features, placing them within the cinematographic, social, political and financial contexts of each nation, setting up links among them. We also complement the data collected with a critical review of the theoretical contributions on the subject. Our research represents a contribution to history of film and, besides providing and analysing technical, artistic and political information, we lay the basis of present Spanish- Portuguese film co-productions. Iberian film collaboration during those years represents a specific period in the history of both film industries, which did not continue, and which prevented the consolidation of the Iberian audio-visual area just created. We stress the importance of Spanish-Portuguese technical and professional collaboration, as well as Government support strategies, essential for the projects achievement during a challenging phase from the funding point of view. The main reasons for both countries to work together are the reduction in the cost of production and the chance of internationalisation in Ibero-American countries...
