Resumo: This paper’s object of study is the Three Colors trilogy, by the Polish director Krzysztof Kieślowski (1941-1996), composed by Blue (1993), White (1994) and Red (1994). We discuss theoretically the positioning of the French Revolution’s values in the political field in the trilogy. The objective is to comprehend how the revolutionary values are micropolitically worked in each one of the movies that compose it. Based in an idea of a “minor cinema”, this article deconstructs the connections suggested by the Brazilian translation of the movie’s titles by showing how, paradoxically, values such as liberty, equality and brotherhood are experienced transversally in the characters’ quotidian, and contradicts its director by recognizing the inseparability of the molar and molecular strategies which make this trilogy one expression of the political cinema of the end of the 20th century.

Realiza-se uma argumentação de caráter teórico sobre o posicionamento no campo político dos princípios da Revolução Francesa na Trilogia. O objetivo é compreender como os valores revolucionários são micropoliticamente trabalhados em cada um dos filmes que a compõe. Sustentado por uma ideia de "cinema menor", este artigo desconstrói as associações sugeridas pela tradução brasileira do título dos filmes ao evidenciar como, paradoxalmente, valores como liberdade, igualdade e fraternidade são experienciados transversalmente no cotidiano dos personagens, e contradiz seu diretor ao reconhecer a indissociabilidade das estratégias molares e moleculares que fazem desta trilogia uma expressão do cinema político do fim do século XX. Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul, Faculdade de Biblioteconomia e Comunicação, Programa de Pós-Graduação em Ciência da Informação (Porto Alegre/RS)2014-06-11info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionAvaliado por Paresapplication/pdfhttps://seer.ufrgs.br/index.php/EmQuestao/article/view/44339Em Questão; Vol. 20 No. 1 (2014); 247-268Em Questão; Vol. 20 Núm. 1 (2014); 247-268Em Questão; v. 20 n. 1 (2014); 247-2681808-52451807-8893reponame:Em Questão (Online)instname:Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS)instacron:UFRGSporhttps://seer.ufrgs.br/index.php/EmQuestao/article/view/44339/33193Copyright (c) 2014 João Fabrício Flores da Cunha, Alexandre Rocha da Silvahttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessFlores da Cunha, João Fabrícioda Silva, Alexandre Rocha2024-03-18T17:15:13Zoai:seer.ufrgs.br:article/44339Revistahttps://seer.ufrgs.br/emquestao/PUBhttps://seer.ufrgs.br/EmQuestao/oaiemquestao@ufrgs.br||emquestao@ufrgs.br1808-52451807-8893opendoar:2024-03-18T17:15:13Em Questão (Online) - Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS)false
