Abstract: In this dissertation I examine the ‘Voice’ of the filmmaker from a political and aesthetic\n\nperspective. Within film practice the own ‘Voice’ refers mainly to the aesthetic style of a\n\nfilmmaker. Within the field of postcolonial studies 'Voice' is related to the access that\n\npostcolonial subjects have to the production of discourse. Movies and other media can be seen\n\nin this context as a form of discourse. For Indigenous filmmakers both approaches to ‘Voice’\n\nand having a ‘Voice’ are important. This study explores the way in which Indigenous\n\nfilmmakers, particularly from Latin America, express their 'Voice' both politically and\n\naesthetically in their films.
