Why to think only about mourning and not about joy? Why to tell only histories of traumas and scars that are so present at minoritarian discourses and not histories of the parties? Following not so much an anthropology but an aesthetic genealogy (Foucault) of the parties I would like to look for some moments of the São Paulo ninghtlife at the 1980s and 1990s after the end of military reg…
My proposed project in conjunction with the University of Sao Paulo emerges from my longstanding interest in the question of the cultural role and the mediatic representations of the indigenous peoples of the Americas both in international cinema and within social theory. At the crossroads of cultural/media studies and intellectual history, my project analyzes the figure of the "Indian" b…

Olga Futemma, despite being better known for her work at the Cinemateca Brasileira, worked briefly as a filmmaker in the city of São Paulo, between the 1970s and 1980s, directing six short films and working as a film editor and screenwriter in another twelve productions at the time. Thus, the hypothesis elaborated in this project consists in the possibility of analyzing her work through a…
This project aims to investigate the links between the fields of screenwriting and production design in cinema, based on a case in which both functions are performed by the same professional: Czech costume designer, art director and screenwriter, Ester Krumbachová. The objects of analysis are her four original screenplays and films, collected at the Czech National Film Archive during a FA…
The present project intends to investigate the aesthetic and formal aspects that constitute the female protagonism in the early works of Czech film director Vra Chytilová and in which ways they relate to her less-known television production. To answer these questions, the project will be segmented into three stages. The first stage will focus on the aesthetic and formal aspects of the fi…
This dissertation investigates screenwriting from a historical, theoretical, and critical perspective that understands it simultaneously as both practice and discourse (Maras, 2009). To this end, I trace a genealogy of the film script form, analyzing the cultural, economic, and social transformations that have shaped its structure, from the earliest scenarios to the contemporary normative…

This project is part of a larger inquiry that seeks to stimulate transnational and transmediatic approaches to production design studies. The research in Brazil develops previous FAPESP projects, including a research internship at Charles University in Prague, when the investigations at the screenplay collection at the National Film Archive raised new inquiries regarding the creative and …
This research project questions whether it is possible to draw parallels between Olga Futemma's works and other films made by women and/or Asian Americans with a similar autobiographical approach, especially the ones made in the United States. Daughter of Okinawan immigrants, Olga Futemma has dedicated more than 50 years to film preservation through her work at Cinemateca Brasileira, but …
This research relies on the notion of 'excess' to discuss modes of sensorial construction in audiovisual screenplays, while attempting to understand how the films' political-aesthetic projects flow through their openness to sensoriality. How do ways of thinking, feeling, and seeing the world leak into the body of the text, and from it splash onto us and onto the screen? My hypothesis is t…
In general, television studies are separate from film studies. This project is part of a larger inquiry that seeks to relate the mediums, in this case via the work of the Czech director Vra Chytilová. The central objective of the research in the country is to investigate which aesthetic and formal aspects make up the female protagonism in the first phase of the filmmaker's career and how …
