Abstract

In recent years we have witnessed a boom in cinematographic productions in Basque, so it may be a good time to observe its development. This article aims to analyze the terminology and conceptualization behind the names Basque cinema and cinema in Basque. Filmography in Basque and its distribution will also be observed throughout its history. To this end, a catalogue of feature films that use Basque as their main language has been completed. It can be deduced from it that the name film in Basque can be somewhat confusing, given the idea of monolingualism that it suggests, as opposed to the multilingualism present in numerous films. Finally, we will focus our attention on the different modalities of translation and the diffusion of films in Euskera, both inside and outside the Basque Country.
