Youth is a social category with a complex definition. It bears the marks of the political, social, economic, relational and cultural processes of its time. It points to a complex fabric of social representations that are constructed and modified through spatial, temporal and historical conditions, demarcating distinct and peculiar ways of relating, dressing, speaking in groups, among others. Ten authors make up the book we are presenting here. Each of the chapters raises questions and theoretical concerns about different youth realities, in the light of films that take youth as their theme. The authors are very clear that they do not intend to exhaust the possibilities of reading the chosen films. On the contrary! They believe and wish to be making available material that serves as a trigger for new readings and different perspectives on youth. If this is the case, we, as youth scholars, will be contributing to the advancement of this theoretical field. We wish you all a great read! With love! The organizers.
