Narrativas musicais, memórias e afetos no documentário “As canções”

Abstract

From the concepts of “self-mise-en scène”, developed by Jean-Louis Comolli, and of “dispositif” as conceived by Consuelo Lins (Lins, 2007), this article proposes an analysis of the film “As canções” –songs– (Eduardo Coutinho, 2011), in which music is used as an element catalyst of the memories and of the narrative abilites of the personages. But much more than a film analysis the aim here is to reveal the possibilities that musics have to evoke memories and affections.
