http://dx.doi.org/10.5007/1807-1384.2016v13n3p61In this article we will reflect on the approach of the acquired physical disability proposed by the soap opera Viver a Vida (written by Manoel Carlos, produced and broadcast by Rede Globo in 2009 and 2010) and by the blog Sonhos de Luciana (REDE GLOBO, 2010). We will analyze the blog scene where Luciana, protagonist of this issue, goes for the first time to the beach after acquiring a disability. Starting from an interdisciplinary perspective, we establish a dialogue between three areas of knowledge. Social Communication (mainly Cultural Studies) supports the perspective from which we understand the media. Anthropology is the area that contributes to the look and methodology, the screen ethnography. And, finally, Disability Studies, that provide the theoretical basis for the analysis of disability.
