- The horror between the dystopic conservatism and the dissident abjection: an analysis of Medusa, BP.IC
Abstract
This research is based on the analysis of the film Medusa (Anita Rocha da Silveira, 2021). In intersection with studies on utopias and dystopias in contemporary Brazilian cinema, we propose the notion of "dystopian conservatism" to discuss the object as a vehicle of a dystopian imaginary linked to conservative notions that control and repress dissident individuals. The analysis intersects…
- Generic formations in contemporary Latin-American crime film, BP.DR
Abstract
This research project proposes a study of the production, distribution, and reception of crime films in Argentina, Brazil, and Mexico, from the perspective of the world-systems analysis, which divides the global production into center, semi-periphery and periphery, since the year 2000 to the contemporary. We will use the referred world-systems perspective, formulated by Immanuel Wallerste…

This allowed the renewal of an independent and authorial segment. Cinema as established in those years, between chronicles of customs, light comedies, historical dramas and crime films, was mostly settled from a naturalist-realistic re…
- From body to image: mediated presence in contemporary audiovisual media, BP.PD

This postdoctoral research project explores different forms of presentation of the human body, and the different modes of its spectatorship in audiovisual media. By going through an expanded notion of cinema, we will analyze audiovisual configurations that allow the filmed body to escape the usual production of "character effects" and to display its dimension of presence, that is, its irr…
- Por uma análise d' O Discurso Cinematográfico: uma aproximação do tensionamento entre os conceitos de transparência e opacidade na análise do discurso e na teoria do cinema de Ismail Xavier, BP.IC
Abstract
This research departs from the hypothesis that there is a accordance between Ismail Xavier's film theory and the disciplinary field of the discourse analysis. To verify the hypothesis we propose to draw relation lines between the use of the concepts of "transparency" and "opacity" in the works of Xavier and in discourse analysis, aiming to comprehend the similarities and divergences in th…
