We have chosen the scene —third sequence of the film— in which the main character Anne stares at a void in catatonic state of mind while her husband Georges tries to recover her consciousness without any success. We will use the Theory of the Text and our conceptual framework will be the study of the real as it has been elaborated by Jesus Gonzalez Requena within the psychoanalytic field. More specifically, we will focus on his theorization based on the role of the Primordial Imago in the emergence of consciousness through shot reverse shot technique. We then propose as an exploratory hypothesis the existence of a footprint of the real that challenges the communicative exchange of this filmic technique.","PeriodicalId":40899,"journal":{"name":"Fotocinema-Revista Cientifica de Cine y Fotografia","volume":"1 1","pages":"351-371"},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2021-01-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44908459","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Despite the abundant corpus on the filmic representation of motherhood, this bond has hardly been specifically addressed. Focusing on gender studies and taking into account horror cinema and melodrama in the treatment of this topic, this article analyses the aesthetic and narrative conventions that have guided the representation of this maternal-filial bond in feature films produced in Spain in recent years. Taking Carlos Vermut's third film as the case of study, I conclude that though Quien te cantara (2018) maintains some of the traditional motifs that had shaped the negative representation of kinship between mothers and daughters, it also expands maternity archetypes. Portraying unorthodox models of motherhood, Quien te cantara is one of the few films that presents the conflict from the mother’s and daughter’s point of view simultaneously, questioning an idealized image of this bond.","PeriodicalId":40899,"journal":{"name":"Fotocinema-Revista Cientifica de Cine y Fotografia","volume":"1 1","pages":"373-396"},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2021-01-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46268281","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The city of Rio de Janeiro, the Brazilian capital until 1960, was the privileged space for the institutionalization of photographic practice, since it was concentrated, since the 19th century, the main photographic studios, as well as the editorial houses responsible for the circulation and sale of prints. \u0000The article addresses the itineraries of public photography in contemporary Brazil. It focuses on the evaluation of the production of a visual public space, valuing three moments in which the photographic practice is consolidated in spaces of the weekly, daily and independent press: the illustrated magazines from the first half of the 20th century, with emphasis on four magazines: \"Careta\", \"Revista da Semana\", \"Fon-Fon\" and \"O Cruzeiro\"; the photojournalism of daily newspapers, “Jornal do Brasil”and “Ultima Hora”, in the 1950s and 1960s; and the agencies of independent photographers of the 1970s and 1980s, such as: Central, Angular, F4, AGIL Fotojornalismo, Fotocontexto, among others, acting as important instruments of documentation of social movements, and promoting the consolidation of independent production, the practice of archiving originals, control over the publication and dissemination of photographs. It is understandable that in such spaces public photography was forged as one of the dimensions of contemporary historical experience that relied on the technical image to shape its events. In order to inquire about how history was visualized in each of these domains, it proposes a script that begins with a brief consideration of public photography and visual public space, followed by a reflection on news production in the illustrated weeklies, including the registration of events in the regime of the photographic icons and arriving at the independent photographic practice. \u0000Conceptually, photographic practice is understood as ways of seeing, presenting and representing the social world, a historical experience that founded the contemporary Western world. The social circuits in photography and their uses and functions multiplied in a visual economy sustained by the technical image as a device for the production of social meaning. In methodological terms, it uses the historical analysis of the primary documentation found in the database of the digital library of the National Library of Brazil and in the archives of the Oral History and Image Laboratory of the Universidade Federal Fluminense. The historical analysis is complemented with an appraisal of the communicative forms and the power of meaning of four photographs, highlighted from each of the historical periods analyzed.","PeriodicalId":40899,"journal":{"name":"Fotocinema-Revista Cientifica de Cine y Fotografia","volume":"1 1","pages":"221-254"},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2021-01-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45324720","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, it may be the appropriate time to rethink the structural racism built by the colonial process. Based on a historical review of the representation of indigenous and Afro-Brazilian people in Brazilian anthropological photography, we sought to recognize the evolution of the colonial discourse developed in the country. The study was supported by a broad research on emblematic photographs from public and private archives, and the reading of anthropologists and historians, especially Fernando de Tacca (2011). Five phases of this genealogy of coloniality in the country are concluded from this review. Currently, practices that seek to decolonize are perceived from a critical and dialogical rereading of photographic memory that can heal and symbolically transform the identity of the groups violated by colonial history, but a new challenge is interposed from the computer algorithms.","PeriodicalId":40899,"journal":{"name":"Fotocinema-Revista Cientifica de Cine y Fotografia","volume":"1 1","pages":"279-304"},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2021-01-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41345183","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

During this decade, exhibitions of the photographic medium were held that showed the interest of several photographic groups in exploring the material possibilities of the photographic image in the key of an aesthetic anti-conventionalism. To carry out this work, we will first investigate the debates on photographic experimentalism, understood from various perspectives as a specific understanding of the medium, and then determine the links between these conceptions of photography and the cases of the Manifesto of the Experimental Photographic Group, the direct shots of the Beta Group presented in Lirolay and the photograms exhibited in Visual Experiences with Photographic Media in Odin’s Gallery.

The need to develop a specific vocabulary and methodology for the analysis of these images and to focus the study of photography as part of a chain that involves several agents was postulated. An understanding of the historical dimension of photography was proposed, not only as an artistic expression but fundamentally as the history of a means of recording, communication and expression with diverse purposes. The use of images as primary sources was encouraged, respecting their context, their multiple social functions, and their stories and itineraries.
