What educators are saying
Description
45 pages long!!! Over 100 titles of films categorized by AP Spanish Language and Culture themes. Films are in alphabetical order and classified by country and year. Updated in
After teaching AP for 6 years and working in the Latin American film distribution industry, traveling Latin America and attending hundreds of film festivals and workshops, I have been able to gather this list divided by all AP themes of the Spanish Language and Culture Exam.
It has taken years to gather these films and they were presented at the 2019 ACTFL Convention in Washington DC and again at 2023.
I also added a list of shorts and series that aligned with the AP Spanish Language and culture themes, which are as followed:
Las familias y las comunidades
La ciencia y la tecnología
La belleza y estética
Las identidades personales y públicas
Los desafíos mundiales
La vida contemporánea
Families and communities
Science and technology
Beauty and aesthetics
Personal and public identities
Global challenges
Contemporary Life
Or newly named units:
Unit 1: Families in Different Societies
Unit 2: The Influence of Language and Culture on Identity
Unit 3: Influences of Beauty and Art
Unit 4: How Science and Technology Affect Our Lives
Unit 5: Factors That Impact the Quality of Life
Unit 6: Environmental, Political, and Societal Changes
I like to hand my students this list along with the AP syllabus or at least a shortened list to get them excited!
All of these films are of very high category and interesting for students.
