Resumo: The COVID-19 pandemic has increased the search for the Contagion, a fictional feature film from 2011 whose plot addresses the global spread of a new respiratory transmitted virus, which causes a disease with a high mortality rate. In this paper, we used a quali-quantitative methodology to analyze 4,801 comments about the movie posted on a social network about cinema. We compared the assessments before and after January 2020, when the new coronavirus was considered by World Health Organization a public health emergency of international concern. The analysis of the most frequent words and terms and the proximity between them revealed how the pandemic changed the perception of the viewers, who started to evaluate the film more for its verisimilitude than for its cinematic aspects. We also sought in the movie itself scenes and film elements that could have mobilized the public’s attention to certain aspects revealed in the comments, such as forms of transmission, hygiene measures, social distancing and promotion of medication without proven efficacy. In this sense, the results also show the potential of cinema for science communication when addressing scientific concepts, themes, processes, and controversies.

La pandemia de COVID-19 ha aumentado la demanda de la película Contagio, un largometraje de ficción de 2011, cuya trama aborda la propagación a escala mundial de un nuevo virus de transmisión respiratoria, que causa una enfermedad con una alta tasa de mortalidad. En este artículo utilizamos métodos mixtos (datos cuantitativos y análisis cualitativo) para analizar 4.801 comentarios sobre la película, publicados en una red social sobre cine. Comparamos evaluaciones antes y después de enero de 2020, cuando la Organización Mundial de la Salud consideró que el nuevo coronavirus era una emergencia de salud pública de importancia internacional. El análisis de las palabras y términos más frecuentes, así como la proximidad entre ellos, reveló cómo la pandemia cambió la percepción de los espectadores, quienes comenzaron a evaluar la película más por su verosimilitud de la situación de salud que por sus aspectos cinematográficos. También se buscaron en la propia obra escenas y elementos fílmicos que pudieran haber movilizado la atención del público sobre determinados aspectos revelados en los comentarios, como formas de transmisión, medidas de higiene, distanciamiento social y promoción de medicamentos sin eficacia probada. En este sentido, los resultados también muestran el potencial del cine para la divulgación científica al abordar conceptos, temas, procesos y controversias en ciencia y salud.A pandemia de COVID-19 fez aumentar a procura pelo filme Contágio, um longa-metragem ficcional de 2011 cujo enredo aborda a disseminação em escala global de um novo vírus de transmissão respiratória e que causa uma doença com alta taxa de letalidade.
