Sumario:This paper aims to analyze how the Brazilian censorship analyzed movies during the military regime between 1964 and 1985. More precisely, we discuss the cases of four films: Macunaíma (Joaquim Pedro de Andrade, 1969), Iracema, uma transa amazônica (Jorge Bondanzky and Orlando Senna, 1974), Compasso de Espera (Antunes Filho, 1975) and Tenda dos Milagres (Nelson Pereira dos Santos, 1976). Based on these cases, we seek to establish to what extent the representation of ethnic/racial conflict situations bothered agents of censorship at that time, since the regime was clearly guided by the doctrines of the Portuguese-tropicalism and of the national- development.
