dc.description.en-US.fl_txt_mv Thorough studies on the New Latin American Cinema of the 1960s have mostly focused on issues such as ideology (a militant cinema), aesthetics (a cinema of poverty) and form (an imperfect cinema). However, a reflection upon the audience developed by the filmmakers has been strangely overlooked. This article aims to theorize on the public, thus rescuing one of the most under-researched aspects of this cinema. Through a critical reading of some texts such as manifestos, interviews and films, this work explores how this movement conceived of the public and the originality this perspective has brought to film history. The spectator was defined as an actor committed to the political changes that Cuban revolution inspired in the region, a spectator who was closer to the conflicts of his/her own historical time than to the comfort of the cinema seat. 
dc.description.es-ES.fl_txt_mv El Nuevo Cine Latinoamericano de los años sesenta ha proporcionado un vasto y rico panorama de estudios sobre su carácter ideológico (un cine militante), estético (un cine de la pobreza) o formal (un cine imperfecto). Este artículo se propone rescatar uno de los aspectos quizás menos estudiados del llamado Nuevo Cine Latinoamericano: la teorización sobre el público. A través de una lectura crítica de algunos textos fundamentales (manifiestos, entrevistas, films), se expondrá el carácter original que presenta la nueva concepción de público propuesta por los cineastas, a partir de un espectador definido como un actor imprescindible en los procesos de cambio gestados en la región desde la revolución cubana. En definitiva, un espectador alejado de la butaca y más cerca de su tiempo histórico.
