POR UMA POLÍTICA DA REMEMORAÇÃO: A POTÊNCIA HISTÓRICA NO CINEMA DE EXPERIÊNCIA PESSOAL.

How can personal filmmaking capture the historical experience? Having this question in mind, and aiming at revealing a certain politics of remembering, I set off the collective and subjective potency of self-filmmaking that emerges from various strategies for evoking, constituting and depicting memory. A short inventory of Brazilian films and filmmakers is sketched in order to guide the identification of three figures of selffilmmaking - "self-trace", "becomingmemory", and "processuality" - that articulate together a method and a filmic writing that engenders a temporal texture in which memory stands in a creative relation to forgetfulness and history takes a fluid shape.
