Resumo: | In the filmography portraying the Brazilian dictatorship, the characters of torturers and civil collaborators usually fit into well-defined archetypes of antagonists and supporting roles. The article traces a cartography of these archetypes in a corpus of Brazilian fictional and documentary works made since the democratization, identifying the figures and nuances at stake: the truculent torturer; the torturer with signs of conscience; the businessman sponsoring the repression; the physician covering violations; the priest aligned with the regime. Regardless of these nuances, in all the cases the guilts and complicities are circumscribed within the formulas of crystallized archetypes, relegated to a microcosm of “villains” distant from the social fabric. A second movement of the analysis proposes the comparison between this general panorama and two specific documentaries: 70 y Pico (Mariano Corbacho, Argentina, 2016) and Adriana’s Pact (Lissette Orozco, Chile, 2017). Both are directed by descendants of individuals linked to the repressive structure of the dictatorships of their respective countries. In the way of the subjective documentary that investigates the interfaces between family memory and history, these films shed light on less obvious characters in the orbit of repression; common persons that integrate a gray zone extremely close, where the social support to the authoritarianism is rooted. |

O artigo traça uma cartografia desses arquétipos em um corpus de títulos ficcionais e documentais brasileiros realizados desde a Abertura política, identificando as figuras e nuances em jogo: o torturador brucutu; o torturador com laivos de consciência; o empresário patrocinador da repressão; o médico acobertador de violações; o religioso alinhado ao regime. A despeito dos matizes, em todos esses casos as culpas e cumplicidades acabam circunscritas dentro das fórmulas de arquétipos cristalizados, relegadas a um microcosmo de “vilões” distantes do tecido social. Um segundo movimento da análise propõe a comparação entre esse panorama geral e dois documentários específicos: 70 y Pico (Mariano Corbacho, Argentina, 2016) e El pacto de Adriana (Lissette Orozco, Chile, 2017). Ambos são dirigidos por descendentes de indivíduos ligados à estrutura repressiva das ditaduras de seus respectivos países. Na chave do documentário subjetivo que revolve as interfaces entre memória familiar e história, esses filmes jogam luz sobre personagens menos óbvios da órbita da repressão.
