This article is part of a research supported by FAPESP, whose theme is "Poetic Representations of Death in Media Narratives". It seeks to understand: the representations of death in media narratives; the concepts of communication and incommunicability, in their relations with culture and the consciousness of death; the possibility of a poetic communication as a form of complex representation / construction of the phenomenon of death and, understanding the cinema as media, the representations of death contained in these narratives, from their poetic aspects. It´s used: the bibliographic research; the exploratory, for delimitation of the corpus; the analysis of the selected narratives, in the case of this article, the argentine film Chinese Take-Out (2011, Sebastián Borensztein). With the analyzes, poetic aspects are revealed in the representations of death, which can point to the possibility of a poetic communication, guiding our hypothesis about the poetic as a complex form of representation / construction of the phenomenon of death in the media narratives.
