As representações do feminino nas telas cinematográficas do cinema nacional entre 1970 a 1980: uma análise de mar de rosas e bye bye Brasil

Abstract

Cinema is an object of reproduction of images that emerged as an invention of modernity and took on unimaginable places. The objective of this research is to make a parameter between the audiovisual and history, contextualizing the beginning of this great means of communication and production within the scope of Cultural History, together with its role as a correspondent of the representations generated through cinema as a historical agent. The research also aims to analyze how the films Bye Bye Brasil, by Carlos Diegues and Mar de Rosas, by Ana Carolina, created female representations with regard to their bodies and gender and power relations. The problematization will be crucial to understand the issues that involve the visual construction of representations about women, problematizing the male gaze and making a comparative analysis between both films. Using gender studies to discover the series of symbolisms that involve women, choosing cinema as an object of study, this study seeks to trace the image of the female figure and its representations through the cinematographic context, making a reflection on subjectivity, the identity and identification processes of women, understand and interpret the representations of female characters in feature films.
