PORFIRIO, Iagol. Reconstructing the territory on the Screen: the indigenous documentary cinema between the guaraní people of Argentina and Brazil. Rev. urug. Antropología y Etnografía [online]. 2022, vol.7, n.1, pp.141-179.  Epub 01-Jun-2022. ISSN 2393-7068.  https://doi.org/10.29112/ruae.v7i1.1556.

This article proposes an analysis of the political uses of audiovisual technologies by indigenous film groups among the Guarani of Argentina and Brazil and how they construct the territory through images. For this, I propose to think about the emergence of indigenous cinema collectives in Latin America, understanding indigenous cinema as a «device», based on what Agamben (2009)conceptualizes, and to reflect on the indigenous social space beyond the geographical point of view. Thus, I propose a discussion of how the representation of overlapping and shared territories occurs with what Cadena (2020) calls «beings-lands» that, so to speak, inhabit the images. To do this, I propose to analyze the recent productions of the Collective de Cine Mbya Guaraní Ara Pyau (Argentina) and the Collective Mbyá-Guaraní of Cine (Brazil), analyzing one of the films of both groups: Una Semilla de Ara Pyau (2017) and Duas aldeias, uma caminhada (2008), respectively.

Palabras clave : Guaraníes Mbyá; Territoriality; Territories; Film Collectives; Documentary; Film; Argentina; Brazil.
