Resumo: From the contraposition of various statements, the montage of the documentary Capturing Friedmans (2003) brings into question the procedures used by the justice system and the media to criminalize Arnold and Jesse Friedman, accused of child molestation in Great Neck, USA, in 1988. The movie received innumerous compliments from critics because it valued the ambiguous narrative. Nevertheless, we aim to demonstrate that the fragmented montage is aligned with the idea of spectacle, stylistic procedure that, from a political point of view, is opposed to the opening of senses and heterogeneity of voices mobilized in the documentary. It is also in our interest to draw attention to the performative character of most of the scenes, because it allow senses and subjects to move away from preconceived places.

El documental recibió elogios de la crítica justamente por valorar la ambigüidad narrativa. Sin embargo, buscamos mostrar que el montaje fragmentado se vincula a la idea de espectáculo, procedimiento estilístico que, del punto de vista político, se contrapone a la apertura de sentidos y a la heterogeneidad de voces que el film moviliza. También llamamos la atención para el carácter performático de buena parte de sus imágenes, pues estas permiten que sentidos y sujetos se aparten de lugares preconcebidos.A partir da contraposição entre vários depoimentos, a montagem de Na Captura dos Friedmans (2003) põe em dúvida os procedimentos utilizados pela justiça e pela mídia para criminalizar Arnold e Jesse Friedman, acusados de abuso sexual contra menores em Great Neck, EUA, em 1988.
