In an era of overflows and hybridisms in the audiovisual field, when the boundaries between formats, genres and languages are increasingly blurred and hard to be defined, this research project proposes a new approach to moving images, focusing on their relation to choreographic art, not only as distinct artistic languages - film and dance - that sometimes intersect, but as developments of…

Certain films, by venturing into poetics of excess, thourgh intense incorporation of technical defects throughout the production of the work (in opposition to regulatory and normative models of the cinematographic form and its representational-narrative images), construct audiovisual systems of disorderly and chaotic appearance. They search, in this manner, to bring out sensorial intensit…

Thus, they seek to a…

We can find such manifestations in a series of different films, whether or not they are part of Cinema No…
This research internship abroad is part of our PhD research project whose main objective is to analyze the relationship between the narrative and the sensory in cinema. Our approach deals with three different conceptions of the film character: the film character understood as an articulating element of the narrative, generally modeled after the human person (which we will call the "person…
