Resumo
It is in language that things get a meaning. In it, some verbs are impersonal and have no
subject. This implies not having someone to agree with, like the verb "to do”. All verb
indicates an action, an act in constitution. This is the case of this study: a process of
"feature", a becoming-another, a becoming-body. The materialization of one corpus, about
which to tell about the body's relations with the world and with others. This constitution will
be made in four main actions: did, undoing, (re) doing and did. Such actions indicate the
disruption of order, to establish estrangement, to inaugurate a new way of seeing and
thinking the body. This dissertation aims to investigate practices, self-care and performativity
in the body constitution of queers characters in the cinema of Pedro Almodóvar. In order to do
so, it appropriates the concepts of subjectivities, practices and care of himself, performativity,
body, heterotopy and, methodologically, uses a deconstructionist perspective and filmic
analysis to perceive the performativity and self-practices of the characters. As a clipping and
object of analysis, we selected the characters Tina and Pablo from Pedro Almodóvar's Law of
Desire (1987). Such characters have polymorphous sexualities, allowing us to perceive how
the processes of self-constitution occur and show perspectives of sexuality subversion. Their
bodies are plastic, flexible, transgressors and indicate an agonistic quest in creating an
aesthetic ethical truth about themselves. In this study, we are interested in discussing the
queer body and how it constitutes a heterotopy, that is, the techniques, the cares and the
practices of the self by which this body subverts the previously determined spaces and
determinations of the body of the relations of power imposed through the device of sexuality
inaugurating counter space. It is against the triple knowledge-power-subject that defines the
device of sexuality that these subjects put themselves. This is because the queer is already an
overlapping of social positions, a displacement to the margin, are boundary and deviant
bodies that are not content to cross the binary divisions but live on the border. To define the
queer body as a heterotopy, is to understand it by subversion of the natural order. It is to see
it in the modification of the spaces and positions of the discourses of normatizing sexuality.
Studying it under this configuration enables the communication to understand it, immersed in
a culture, from traces of an event. It is in this body that cries, that laughs, that makes party
(that is a party) that are locked relations of power and is in them that they transit,
establishing resistances, if doing, being and surviving.
