Resumo: | The objective of this article is, based on the documentaries Fim and Kalunga, by the young Mozambican filmmaker Lara Sousa, to reflect on some directions of the current Mozambican filmography, which, from the perspectives of Pasolini’s “poetry cinema” and of the “post-modern documentary” defined by Bill Nichols, moves away from the militant cinegraphy practised by the Mozambican filmmakers of the previous generation, producing subjective films, deconstructors of utopias dreamt in the past. In Fim, the threat of paternal death, the famous filmmaker Camilo de Sousa, causes Lara to reevaluate the utopias and action cinema that characterized her father’s cinematic performance in the process of decolonization of Mozambique. In Kalunga, the memory of the poems of his great-aunt, Noémia de Sousa, offers a critical rereading of an “Indian ocean of despair and revolts”. |

Em Fim, a ameaça da morte do pai, o consagrado cineasta Camilo de Sousa, faz Lara reavaliar utopias e o cinema-ação que caracterizou a atuação cinematográfica paterna no processo de descolonização de Moçambique. Em Kalunga, a memória dos poemas da tia-avó, Noémia de Sousa, propicia o repensar crítico de um oceano “Índico de desesperos e revoltas”.ABEC Brasil2022-10-31info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionPeer-reviewed ArticleArtigo avaliado por paresapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.uff.br/revistaabril/article/view/5484310.22409/abriluff.v14i29.54843ABRIL – NEPA / UFF; Vol. 14 No. 29 (2022): Literature and other arts; 15-29Abril – NEPA / UFF; v. 14 n. 29 (2022): Literatura e outras artes; 15-291984-209010.22409/abriluff.v14i29reponame:Abril (Niterói)instname:Universidade Federal Fluminense (UFF)instacron:UFFporhttps://periodicos.uff.br/revistaabril/article/view/54843/33099Copyright (c) 2022 Abril – NEPA / UFFhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessTindó Ribeiro Secco, Carmen Lucia2022-11-01T11:24:06Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/54843Revistahttps://periodicos.uff.br/revistaabrilPUBhttps://periodicos.uff.br/revistaabril/oairevistaabril@vm.uff.br||nepa@vm.uff.br||uffnepa@gmail.com||idafalves@gmail.com1984-20901984-2090opendoar:2022-11-01T11:24:06Abril (Niterói) - Universidade Federal Fluminense (UFF)false |
