Resumo: In Brazilian cinema of the 2010s, a series of films used elements of the science fiction genre to highlight the unusual features that were permeating the Brazilian political scene. The desire to fabulate the real has highlighted historical traumas and opened space for speculations of a transgressive nature that could operate a decolonization of the imaginary and a renewal in the Brazilian cinematographic scenario. In this article, we propose to think about the implications of this move, taking into account the historical legacy of invention cinema, a term coined by the critic and director Jairo Ferreira when he studied the effervescent Brazilian cultural context of the late 1960s and early 1970s. For this analysis of Brazilian cinema in the past decade, we privileged two works by a director who stood out in this context with films that were politically daring and inventive in their aesthetic and narrative procedures, namely Branco Sai, Preto Fica (2014) and Era uma vez Brasília (2017), both directed by filmmaker Adirley Queirós. His work under construction guides a debate about the peripheral condition of our cinema and its possibilities through the bias of a fiction of the poor, expanding an aesthetic imaginary by bringing to light evidence of the historical constitution of Brazilian cinema and its legacy in the days of today.

El deseo de fabular lo real destacó traumas históricos y abrió espacio para especulaciones de carácter transgresor que podrían operar una descolonización del imaginario y una renovación en la escena cinematográfica brasileña. En este artículo nos proponemos reflexionar sobre las implicaciones de este gesto, teniendo en cuenta el legado histórico del cine de invención, término acuñado por el crítico y director Jairo Ferreira cuando estudiaba el efervescente contexto cultural brasileño de finales de los años sesenta y principios de los setenta. Para este análisis del cine brasileño en la última década, privilegiamos dos obras de un director que se destacó en este contexto con películas políticamente atrevidas e inventivas en sus procedimientos estéticos y narrativos. Me refiero a las películas Branco Sai, Preto Fica (2014) y Era uma vez Brasilia (2017), ambas dirigidas por el cineasta Adirley Queirós. Su obra en construcción orienta un debate sobre la condición periférica de nuestro cine y también sus posibilidades a través del sesgo de una ficción de los pobres, ampliando un imaginario estético al traer a la luz evidencias de la constitución histórica del cine brasileño y su legado en los días de hoy.No cinema brasileiro dos anos 2010, uma série de filmes fizeram uso de elementos do gênero de ficção científica para evidenciar o caráter insólito que foi se instaurando no cenário político brasileiro. O desejo de fabulação do real evidenciou traumas históricos e abriu espaço para especulações de caráter transgressor que pudessem operar uma descolonização do imaginário e uma renovação no cenário cinematográfico brasileiro. Neste artigo, propomos pensar as implicações desse gesto levando em conta o legado histórico do cinema de invenção, termo cunhado pelo crítico e realizador Jairo Ferreira ao se debruçar sobre o efervescente contexto cultural brasileiro do final da década de 1960 e começo da década de 1970. Para esta análise acerca do cinema brasileiro da década passada, privilegiamos duas obras de um realizador que se destacou nesse contexto com filmes ousados politicamente e inventivos em seus procedimentos estéticos e narrativos. A saber, os filmes Branco Sai, Preto Fica (2014, DF) e Era uma vez Brasília (2017, DF), ambos dirigidos pelo cineasta Adirley Queirós. A sua obra em construção norteia um debate acerca da condição periférica de nosso cinema e também das possibilidades deste pelo viés de uma ficção dos pobres, alargando um imaginário estético ao trazer à tona evidências da constituição histórica do cinema brasileiro e do seu legado nos dias de hoje.Socine - Sociedade Brasileira de Estudos de Cinema e Audiovisual2023-07-30info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionTextoapplication/pdfhttps://rebeca.socine.org.br/1/article/view/93410.22475/rebeca.v12n1.934Rebeca - Brazilian Journal for Cinema and Audiovisual Studies; Vol. 12 No. 1 (2023): Rebeca 23Rebeca - Revista Brasileira de Estudos de Cinema e Audiovisual; Vol. 12 Núm. 1 (2023): Rebeca 23Rebeca - Revista Brasileira de Estudos de Cinema e Audiovisual; Vol. 12 No 1 (2023): Rebeca 23Rebeca - Revista Brasileira de Estudos de Cinema e Audiovisual; v. 12 n. 1 (2023): Rebeca 232316-9230reponame:Rebeca (São Paulo)instname:Sociedade Brasileira de Estudos de Cinema e Audiovisual (SOCINE)instacron:SOCINEporhttps://rebeca.socine.org.br/1/article/view/934/545Copyright (c) 2023 Arthur Linshttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessLins, Arthur2023-07-30T18:45:43Zoai:ojs.emnuvens.com.br:article/934Revistahttps://rebeca.socine.org.br/1ONGhttps://rebeca.socine.org.br/1/oairebeca@socine.org.br2316-92302316-9230opendoar:2023-07-30T18:45:43Rebeca (São Paulo) - Sociedade Brasileira de Estudos de Cinema e Audiovisual (SOCINE)false
