“Cada comprimido é uma reivindicação de posse”: ativismo e identidade no documentário Meu Corpo é Político

Abstract

This article analyzes how the documentary Meu corpo e politico performs a particular way of activism and political action. We investigate the film’s framework over politics, the body and the separation of public and private dimensions, considering that the approach contraposes the usual frame of transsexuality, but acts over this category using a “veridiction” criterion driven by activism.
