SUMMARY:

This thesis analyzes five films produced by filmmakers of contemporary Brazilian cinema in order to understand the production of meaning and the identity identified in the forms of representation of women in the narrative in works directed by women. Within the framework of Cinema Theory and Gender Studies this work aims to comprehend the aspects and impasses that contribute to gender inequality in the Brazilian film industry. The filmmakers and films chosen for analysis here are: Laís Bodanzky (SP) and the film Como Nossos Pais (2017); Jorane Castro (PA) and the film Para Ter Onde Ir (2018); Roberta Marques (CE) and the film Rânia (2012), Cristiane Oliveira (RS) and the film Mulher Do Pai (2016); and Adriana Vasconcelos (DF) and the film Mãe (2018). For this investigation, we ask the following questions: How does identity is build in these films directed by wemen within the context of the contemporary Brazilian cinema? How have developed the work trajectories of these women filmmakers? How do these women filmmakers see the troubles and barries imposed on your work and also to their desire for producing a work that survives time? The implications of power in social relations at a capitalist society and the concepts developed in the studies of Saffioti (1987), J. Butler (2003), Foucault (1988) and Bourdieu (1998) are related applied for the film analysis, focusing on the questions about the cinema made by women and the ways to confront chauvinism and gender discrimination. The film analysis is developed under the theoretical-methodological perspective of the Poetics of Cinema proposed by Gomes (2004). The film analysis, which comprehends the works and trajectories of these women filmmakers, makes away for the understanding of the ways in which the work of direct films is conducted and also which are the dificulties found within the film market and resistence in the Brazilian film production. The work analysed here are fiction feature with leading actresses directed by women filmmakers, from five regions of Brazil, and produced in the last decade (2009-2019). The analysis of the works and of the filmmakers' trajectories seeks to understand how they resist in the panorama of cinematographic realization, considering the difficulties of producing feature films in Brazil.
