Content characterization of Latin American film productions on Netflix: a Bolivian perspective
Keyword(s):
We study international film flows between Bolivia and Latin America to explore the lack of Bolivian content on Netflix and its limited presence in other SVOD platforms. We characterize Netflix originals, third-party content, and recent Bolivian films, and develop a thematic analysis of their synopsis and genre description, completed with the results of a survey on the Bolivian consumption of streaming content. We identify common patterns in Netflix content and show how it differs from the more nationally minded Bolivian cinematic tradition. Our results point to a homogenizing effect SVOD platforms like Netflix might have on film productions.
