Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: This article analyzes the film Alien Nights (Sérgio de Carvalho 2022) based on Juan José Saer’s proposition of ficcion as a “speculative anthropology”. The analysis approach the making of autochthonous and alien alterities by the discussion of imagetic and narrative construction of Rio Branco – considering the city as a central character of the movie – and of the other characters of the film, considering Michael Taussig and Tzvetan Todorov; the relation between ways of life, violence and the ordinary, in a dialogue with Veena Das and Donna Haraway; and the copoiesis of masculinities, femininities and kinship which engenders ways of inhabiting the world and staying with the trouble.
