Resumo: This article analyzes the film Iracema, an Amazonian screw (1974), directed by Jorge Bodanzky and Orlando Senna, presenting a reading of the representations and allegories present in the work. The historical context of construction of the Transamazon Highway, the narrative approach to reality – there are elements of fiction and documentary presents in the film - and the denunciation, by the filmmakers, about the way of life of the population of the Amazon that lived on the side of the road is highlighted, taking as reference the life of Iracema and Tião. Analyzing the aesthetic elements of Brazilian cinematographic production, the movie is understood as a criticism of the narratives of national identity formation, the artistic production linked to national-popular since the 1960s and especially the role attributed to the indigenous in the project of modernization of the Brazilian society proposed by the military, which justifies the years of censorship until its launch in 1981.

Gravado em 1974, durante a construção da Rodovia Transamazônica, símbolo de progresso e desenvolvimento na propaganda governamental do regime civil-militar, os cineastas propõem a aproximação com a realidade, mesclando elementos de ficção e documentário para denunciar o modo de vida da população da Amazônia que vivia à margem da estrada, ironizando as narrativas sobre o nacional-popular e os romances nacionais, especialmente à obra Iracema, considerada como fundacional da identidade nacional. Também fazem uma crítica aberta ao papel atribuído à população indígena, principalmente durante o processo de modernização e industrialização da sociedade brasileira operada pelo regime, o que lhes rendeu anos de censura até seu lançamento, em 1981. Esse filme nos permite analisar os principais elementos estéticos da produção cinematográfica nacional, inaugurada com o movimento Cinema Novo.UNESP2018-12-20info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionAvaliado pelos paresapplication/pdfhttps://seer.assis.unesp.br/index.php/facesdahistoria/article/view/1139Faces da História; Vol. 5 Núm. 2 (2018): Arte e Literatura na Amazônia Global; 209-225Faces da História; v. 5 n. 2 (2018): Arte e Literatura na Amazônia Global; 209-2252358-3878reponame:Faces da Históriainstname:Universidade Estadual Paulista (UNESP)instacron:UNESPporhttps://seer.assis.unesp.br/index.php/facesdahistoria/article/view/1139/1149Copyright (c) 2018 Faces da Historiainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessSardinha de Medeiros, Carlos Gabriel2021-06-23T12:48:54Zoai:seer.assis.unesp.br:article/1139Revistahttps://seer.assis.unesp.br/index.php/facesdahistoriaPUBhttps://seer.assis.unesp.br/index.php/facesdahistoria/oai||facesdahistoria@assis.unesp.br|| facesdahistoria@gmail.com2358-38782358-3878opendoar:2021-06-23T12:48:54Faces da História - Universidade Estadual Paulista (UNESP)false
