| Sumario: | The article analyzes the various opinions on the film O Caso dos Irmãos Naves (1967), by Luis Sérgio Person, held in the film critic at the time of its premiere, which mobilized fundamental humanistic issues, especially with regard to the approach of the violent torture scenes, often accused of sadism. Amid the discussion about the film narrative and its possibilities of erasing the filmmaker before the documentary representation of the truth, the debate on how the imagistic forms of meaning production can mobilize feelings and/or trigger consciousness in a political way. The historical approach, from references such as Walter Benjamin and Giorgio Agamben, is part of the discussion on visuality, investigating how, despite a common frame of reference, the period had different ways to trigger images. |
