Abstract

This paper proposes a review of categories of transnationality from Deborah Shaw, Andrew Higson and Mette Hjort to analyze the evolution of Dominican cinema and set the dynamics by which national films have surpassed the context of the local to coexist with aspects that affect “national”. The study focuses on film production about migration, particularly two films –Un pasaje de ida (1988) and Nueba Yol (1995)- and aims to establish a new point of view about transnational features on Dominican films.
