This thesis deals with the relationship between violence, suffering, photojournalism and memory, from the news of violence in the city of Rio de Janeiro and the participation of victim s relatives of reported cases in movements against violence. In order to understand this universe, I describe and analyze textual, visual, and emotional speeches of victim s relatives and also of photojournalists. The news of violence, according to Luc Boltanski, are way of denunciation and conversion of the individual cases into "collective causes". These are taken as a first record of violence that turns into a "place of memory" of these events in the city. From news and stories, told by the interviewees, were built small "memory frames" that tell the process experienced by the family after the violence. This process starts by a "original violence" becomes, over time, in individual and collective fights. "Time is an agent" which "works" in relationships, emotions and memory. This changes the sense of the violent experience and builds the identity of the victim s relative and the relationships between them, shaping "emotional communities". These communities support the family in their social and emotional recovery and in their fight for the right to justice. In the face of violent death, these fights negotiate the emergence of new violence and the arrival of new families of victims amid the individual and collective memories.
