Flee (Jonas Poher Rasmussen, 2021) is an animated documentary that presents the story of Amin, an Afghan refugee who is forced to leave his country when the Taliban regime comes to power. The aim of this article is to carry out a textual analysis of the film that studies its original use of different types of animation to represent subjective memories. Then, it theorises the relationship between animations with traumatic content and a generation of the dialectical image proposed by Walter Benjamin. Finally, the use of archival material and how it maintains a dialogical relationship with the aforementioned traumatised images is discussed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This work seeks to establish continuities and ruptures between the discourses related to the war in Afghanistan by intellectuals, politicians, and soldiers. Soldiers were questioned through the Afghan War Diary filtered by Wikileaks, and the conceptual construction of the discourse of politicians was based on the National Security Strategy and other relevant documents. One of the most important findings is the naming of the enemy. While soldiers use the word Taliban, politicians use terrorist, and intellectuals use the word "insurgents", showing heterogeneity and little discursive penetration among actors.
