description Within the cultural history framework and the studies on Argentine and Spanish films, from the critical perspective of gender studies and with a comparative approach, this research offers a panoramic and contrapuntal review of maternal characters in a series of films produced in both countries during the classic industrial period, whereby the power wielded by women is decisive for the course of the dramatic action and the character structure. We are going to describe and analyze some of the ways in which maternal agency, the capacity to do and refrain from doing mentally, physically, and emotionally speaking, was imagined and represented, as well as its links to normative sex-gender models. We will examine the type of authority used, the characteristics of its interference in family life, and its performance. Hence, we will consider, on the one hand, how generic patterns (genre), the star system, and the modes of industrial production are articulated; and, on the other, the ways in which gender mandates are implemented considering the intersection of class and age.

En el marco de la historia cultural y los estudios sobre cine argentino y español, bajo la perspectiva crítica de los estudios de género y con un enfoque comparado, este trabajo traza una revisión panorámica y contrapuntística de figuraciones maternas en una serie de films producidos durante el período clásico industrial a ambos lados del Atlántico, en los que el poder que ejercen las mujeres es definitorio respecto del curso de la acción dramática y el sistema de personajes. Vamos a describir y analizar algunas de las formas en que fue imaginado y representado el agenciamiento materno —capacidad de poder hacer y dejar de hacer a nivel mental, físico y afectivo– y sus vinculaciones con modelos normativos sexo-genéricos, revisaremos el tipo de autoridad desplegado, las características de su injerencia en la vida familiar, y su performance. Para ello, tendremos en cuenta, por un lado, cómo se articulan patrones genéricos (genre), el sistema de estrellas y los modos de producción industrial; y, por otro, las formas en que se modulan mandatos de género (gender) a partir del cruce interseccional de clase y edad. No marco da história cultural e dos estudos cinematográficos argentino e espanhol, desde a perspectiva crítica dos estudos de gênero e com uma abordagem comparativa, este trabalho traça uma revisão panorâmica e contrapontística das figurações maternas em uma série de filmes produzidos durante o período industrial clássico em ambos os lados do Atlântico, nos quais o poder exercido pelas mulheres é definidor no que diz respeito ao curso da ação dramática e ao sistema de personagens. Descreveremos e analisaremos algumas das maneiras pelas quais a agência materna — a capacidade de fazer e se abster de fazer coisas nos níveis mental, físico e emocional — foi imaginada e representada, bem como suas ligações com modelos normativos de sexo e gênero. Analisaremos o tipo de autoridade exercida, as características de sua interferência na vida familiar e seu desempenho. Para isso, consideraremos, por um lado, como se articulam os padrões genéricos (gênero), o star system e os modos de produção industrial; e, por outro lado, as formas pelas quais os mandatos de gênero são modulados a partir do cruzamento interseccional de classe e idade.
