Sumario: | Governmental actions provide solutions to problems of public interest in order to improve the quality of life of the population; with the creation of the Law for the Promotion of National Cinema in 2006, the country began a change in film production, the objective of this study is to determine the impact of public policies on film production in Ecuador during the decade 2007-2017. The present research is qualitative with an exploratory approach. The methods used are historical-logical and analytical-synthetic. A non-probabilistic intentional sampling was used for the application of surveys to a group of 200 filmmakers and audiovisual producers. The results analyzed the economic and productive impacts of filmmaking as a result of the public policies established by the government of Rafael Correa. The structural transformation of filmmaking was identified as a result of the Film Promotion Law, issued in 2006, and the creation of the National Filmmaking Council a year later. The lack of foreign investment, the limited application of the Organic Law of Culture and the Law of Communication have left cinema out of the priority issues, minimizing the creation, distribution and equitable access to different audiovisual contents; however, despite these gaps, Ecuadorian cinema continues to be characterized by its creativity, entertainment and resistance that still awaits an upturn. |
