Abstract

The thesis is divided in two parts. The first one investigates the concept of acousmatic listening as applied to film practice, taking into account its eletroacoustic origins and some of its extensions to film theory and acoustic ecology. The approach privileges the definitions presented by theorists Pierre Schaeffer in the 1950s, Murray Schafer in the 70s and Michel Chion from the 80\'s to 2000. The second part, concentrated on film analysis, discusses some elements of Lucrecia Martel poetics, among which the use of sound is pointed out for representations of time and body figurations. A set of sensorial and thought states is designated, including fatigue, tiredness, exhaustion, forgetfulness and inertia, that play an important role regarding the analysis of Lucrecia Martel\'s films, as pointed out by some critics of the new Argentinean cinema.
