This research proposes to study the fiction cinema based on real events of the
Ecuadorian cinematography, as well as the theory and its differentiation between
fiction and reality. For this purpose, two Ecuadorian films have been taken as a
reference, whose concept is based on real events, the first Mi tía Nora (1983), by Jorge
Prelorán and Pescador (2011). Within this work, each of the fictionalization processes
applied by their authors and directors has been studied, in addition to the compilation
of several relevant aspects of cinema based on real events, that is, the proposed
research is approached from theory. We hope that our research topic contributes to
the theory of national cinema and that it can be useful for other research works that
address related topics.
