Cannibalilizing queer : Brazilian cinema from 1970 to 2015 / Joao Nemi Neto Detroit: Wayne State University Press, 2021.
Call No: 71-032(81) NEMAuthor: Nemi Neto, Joao Edition: 2021Place: DetroitPublisher: Wayne State University PressPubDate: 2021PhysDes: x, 170 pages ; 24 cmSeries: Queer ScreensSubject: BRAZIL ; HOMOSEXUALITY IN FILMS ; AIDS IN FILMS ; PORNOGRAPHIC FILMS ; CANNIBALISM IN FILMS ; MADAME SATA (BL/FR, Karim Ainouz, 2002) ; MARINS, JOSE MOJICA ; ORGIA OU O HOMEN QUE DEU CRIA (BL, Joao Silverio Trevisan, 1970) Summary: Through an analysis of contemporary Brazilian cinematic production, Cannibalizing Queer: Brazilian Cinema from 1970 to 2015 discusses which queer representations are erased and which are acknowledged in the complex processes of cultural translation, adaptation, and "devouring" that defines the Brazilian understanding of sexual dissidents and minorities. João Nemi Neto argues for Brazilian cinema studies to acknowledge the importance of 1920s modernism and of antropografia, a conceptual mode of cannibalism, to adopt and extrapolate a perverse form of absorption and raise the stakes on queer theory and postcolonialism, and to demonstrate how they are crucial to the development of a queer tradition in Brazilian cinema.
In five chapters and two "trailers," Nemi Neto understands the term "queer" through its political dimensions because the films he analyzes represent characters that conform neither to American coming-out politics nor to Brazilian identity politics. Nonetheless, the films are queer precisely because the queer experiences and affection explored in these films do not necessarily insist on identifying characters as a particular sexuality or gender identity. Therefore, attention to characters within a unique cinematic world raises the stakes on several issues that hinge on cinematic form, narrative, and representation. Nemi Neto interviews and examines the work of Joao Silverio Trevisan and provides readings of films such as AIDS o furor do sexo explícito (AIDS the Furor of Explicit Sex, 1986), and Dzi Croquetes (Dzi Croquetes, 2009) to theorize a productive overlap between queer and antropofagia. Moreover, the films analyzed here depict queer alternative representations to both homonormativity and heteronormativity as forms of resistance, at the same time as prejudice and heteronormativity remain present in contemporary Brazilian social practices.
Graduate students and scholars of cinema and media studies, queer studies, Brazilian modernism, and Latin American studies will value what one early reader called "a point of departure for all future research on Brazilian queer cinema." -- publisher's web siteISBN: 9780814346105Donation: Senses of Cinema
