Resumo: This paper discusses filmmaker Sylvio Back and the relationships between cinema and the State during Brazil’s military regime in the 1960s and 1970s. Back then, Brazilian cinema was mainly political and aggressive. At the same time, the government was interested in the film industry, and created awards and financing entities in order to increase national box office earnings. Sylvio Back then started to make films, saying that his intentions were to make “serious” movies, but that could be understood by their public. To analyze this filmmaker’s insertion in the conflicts between cinema and the State, we used interviews and testimonies from Back himself that were published on the press at the time, and understood that his fiction movies were a form of positioning himself on his context’s political and aesthetic matters.

Naquele contexto era visível o desdobramento de um cinema brasileiro politizado e esteticamente “violento”, cujos filmes de baixo orçamento e linguagem renovadora se impunham como forma de oposição ao cinema clássico e mais plenamente industrial. Ao mesmo tempo, ampliava-se o interesse do Estado pela produção cinematográfica em termos empresariais. Durante o regime militar, foram criados órgãos de premiação e fomento ao cinema defendendo a produção de filmes que reforçassem o estatuto industrial do cinema nacional, buscando o aumento de arrecadação nas bilheterias. Em meio a essa situação paradoxal, Sylvio Back estreou na direção de longas-metragens prometendo realizar filmes “sérios” e que se propusessem à comunicação com o público. Para avaliar a inserção desse cineasta nas tensões entre cinema e Estado, são confrontados os depoimentos e entrevistas publicados na imprensa da época e que atestaram publicamente as intenções do cineasta; algumas críticas sobre seus filmes; bem como os filmes de ficção produzidos por Back durante o regime militar, que consistem numa forma de posicionamento do autor perante as questões estéticas e políticas do seu tempo.Universidade Estadual de Londrina2015-07-31info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionHistorical researchPesquisa históricaapplication/pdfhttps://ojs.uel.br/revistas/uel/index.php/antiteses/article/view/2120710.5433/1984-3356.2015v8n15p91Antíteses; Vol. 8 No. 15 (2015): 50 anos de golpe: arte, cultura e poder; 91-111Antíteses; v. 8 n. 15 (2015): 50 anos de golpe: arte, cultura e poder; 91-1111984-3356reponame:Antítesesinstname:Universidade Estadual de Londrina (UEL)instacron:UELporhttps://ojs.uel.br/revistas/uel/index.php/antiteses/article/view/21207/16579Copyright (c) 2015 Antíteseshttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessKaminski, Rosane2022-11-03T16:38:21Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/21207Revistahttps://www.uel.br/revistas/uel/index.php/antitesesPUBhttps://www.uel.br/revistas/uel/index.php/antiteses/oaiantiteses@uel.br||1984-33561984-3356opendoar:2022-11-03T16:38:21Antíteses - Universidade Estadual de Londrina (UEL)false
