MÁS ALLÁ DE LA FASCINACIÓN Y EL HORROR: HACIA UNA ESTÉTICA RELACIONAL DEL CINE CARIBEÑO
Bibliographic record
Abstract
In this paper, I contend that the main tropes rehearsed by Édouard Glissant in his Poetics of Relation help us better understand the practices surrounding Caribbean filmmaking. Much of recent Caribbean filmmaking articulates experiences that reflect the need for a “relational” film aesthetics. These experiences fundamentally question the common understanding of “identity” as a timeless, fixed, territorial, and exclusionary, inherited from the colonial legacy and often perpetuated in mainstream film practices. Departing from Glissant’s notions of “relation” and “errancy,” I highlight the constraints of identitary demands contained in keywords such as ‘nation’, ‘race’, ‘gender’. This understanding informs my analyses of representative films by Félix de Rooy, Fernando Pérez, Fránces Negrón Muntaner and Luis Molina Casanova, in order to suggest that Caribbean film criticism better captures the region’s emancipatory potential in light of a relational film aesthetics.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
