Summary: Recently, Spanish and Portuguese female filmmakers have shown an increasing interest in reconstructing family memories and unveiling its secrets, being the third generation after the far-right dictatorships that ruled both Iberian countries during almost half of the past century. Francoism and Salazarism promoted a model of State and family based on the traditional nuclear family with strict gender roles. By analyzing two autoethnographic documentary films, Nedar (2008), by Catalan director Carla Subirana, and A Metamorfose dos Pássaros (2020), by Portuguese filmmaker Catarina Vasconcelos, whose protagonists are the creators’ grandmothers, this paper seeks to explore how these two films not only retrieve family and national memories, but also how they challenge the family patterns dictated by both dictatorships, placing life and care work at the center.

El Franquismo y el Salazarismo defendieron un modelo de Estado y familia basado en la familia nuclear tradicional con marcados roles de género. Mediante el análisis de dos documentales autoetnográficos, Nedar (2008), de la cineasta catalana Carla Subirana, y A Metamorfose dos Pássaros (2020), de la directora portuguesa Catarina Vasconcelos, cuyas protagonistas son las abuelas de sus creadoras, este artículo pretende explorar cómo estas dos producciones no solo recuperan memorias familiares y nacionales, sino que desafían el paradigma de familia impuesto por las dictaduras, colocando la vida y el trabajo de cuidados en el centro.UMinho Editora2024-12-30info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articlehttps://doi.org/10.21814/2i.5825eng2184-7010Caballero Rabanal, Laurainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositórios Científicos de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (RCAAP)instname:FCCN, serviços digitais da FCT – Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologiainstacron:RCAAP2025-01-05T07:12:16Zoai:journals.uminho.pt:article/5825Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireinfo@rcaap.ptopendoar:https://opendoar.ac.uk/repository/71602025-05-28T19:27:36.039562Repositórios Científicos de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (RCAAP) - FCCN, serviços digitais da FCT – Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologiafalse
