520 _aThis article deals with the spatial representations spread by a contemporary cinema movement, the Cuban Street Cinema. This movement is analyzed with a Social Geography approach. The article aims to question the interactions between the representations of Havana and its evolutions concerning social issues and identity. The Street Cinema appears to be an answer to the social need for reconnecting some discourses to the everyday experience which characterizes Cuban society. Its objective is to show the faces of the city hidden by the official discourses, and to participate in the creation of a new public sphere for a free social debate. The article shows how the cinematographic representations, in their specific relations with space, are established as an innovating narrative in order to build an identity, and how they show the way to re-appropriation of everyday territories. The text presents the experimental methods used during this research to analyze a corpus of 269 films, most of them short movies, combining quantitative and qualitative methods and to develop an adapted visual language.
