The wizard and the witch are complementary figures, but also antagonistic, if we pay attention to the means and ends they pursue when subverting dominant values.<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Black kiss: Witchcraft, cinema and pop culture<\/strong> analyzes the strategies of both to transform reality through a journey that has its epicenter in cinema, but does not forget the small screen, comics and other visual and audiovisual expressions in which wizards and witches have struggled to materialize another way of being and being in the world.
