SUMMARY:

Grounded in the field of mediatization and communication studies, this article focuses on the
cinematic movement as a device of struggle and resignification. With this in mind, this
research aims to analyze the film The Wrung-Out Man (1980), by João Batista de Andrade,
and discuss how the film addresses issues of identity and representation with the Brazilian
Northeast and the Northeastern people. In that way, this work initially builds a
historical-social framework to support the main theoretical debate: how the film not only
breaks with paradigms and concepts, but also proposes to critique them as a political
movement for the reconstruction of the Brazilian Northeastern imaginary. Adopting
qualitative methods of bibliographic review and film analysis, the expected result rests on
promoting a debate on the power and importance of representative cinema, which can
contribute to the (de)construction of stereotypes and prejudiced personifications.
