Resumo: Depression in Lars von Trier’s cinema has been studied from a philosophical perspective, focusing on ethical and moral issues, and from a narrative point of view through a cultural and social contextualisation of the disease. This paper explores how von Trier represents depression through his filmic discourse. Is it possible to identify a specific stylistic pattern in his representation of depression? Is his treatment of the theme different in each film or has it remained consistent throughout his career? Can we assume that von Trier’s personal experience with depression informs his films’ aesthetics?

Este trabajo pretende analizar cómo von Trier representa la depresión a través de su discurso fílmico. ¿Es posible identificar un patrón específico en su estilo cinematográfico para representar la depresión? ¿Varía su tratamiento en cada película o se mantiene constante a lo largo de su carrera? ¿Podemos suponer que la experiencia personal de Trier con la depresión influye en la estética de sus películas?Veritati - Repositório Institucional da Universidade Católica PortuguesaCarmona, Carlos RuizCampos, Marco Pereira2021-09-02T16:22:10Z20212021-01-01T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10400.14/34627eng1885-373085127388959000680674600023info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2023-12-19T01:37:59Zoai:repositorio.ucp.pt:10400.14/34627Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T18:28:04.173785Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
