Main Article Content
Abstract
In this text we review the presence of images of motor vehicles, that appear in Argentinian documentaries of the 1940s, and that account for issues such as the territory, the Chilean-Argentinian border or the epic work. La amistad de dos naciones (Sucesos Argentinos, produced by Ángel Díaz, 1942-1943) is analyzed from boundary issues between Chile and Argentina; and El trasandino del Norte (Fernando Ayala, 1949) is analyzed from the figure of the worker. They are also considered, by way of background or contrasts, films of the Argentinian and Chilean silent period, in the latter case, by means of information that exists in the press.
