The present dissertation analyzes the documentary 7 denunciations: the consequences of the Covid-19 case, by the company and audiovisual content producer Brasil Paralelo. It discusses the participation of that company in the dissemination of government speeches during the Covid-19 pandemic. It aims to analyze how the effect of a sense of reality is built, in the context of the pandemic and its consequences, from the agency of certain discursive memories (ORLANDI, 2012) are used and serve as a structure for the diffusion of the filmic discourse. For this, filmic analysis (AUMONT; MARIE, 2004; VANOYE; GOLIOT-LETÉ, 2002) and discursive analysis (ORLANDI, 2013; PECHÉUX, 1990; COURTINE, 2013) of the documentary are proposed, in order to identify the discursive and ideological formations. We start from the hypothesis that the documentary serves as a tool for spreading disinformational narratives, considering the form and content in an environment controlled by big techs, in this case Google, owner of the social network YouTube, which hosts the film.
