Synopsis of Por el precio de una entrada

«Por el precio de una entrada» is a collective essay on the social history of cinema edited by Julio Montero Díaz and José Cabeza San Deogracias, in paperback.

Beyond entertainment, cinema condenses behaviors, cultural patterns, imaginaries, values and collective emotions. The work brings together studies that present the screen as a symbolic mirror in which the public recognizes itself and society, starting from Hitchcock's famous comparison between watching a movie and eating a piece of cake.

Aimed at the general public interested in the history of cinema and its social and cultural dimension.
