Abstract

KRATJE, Julia. El cine como transgresión: Deseo, política y feminismo en Camila (María Luisa Bemberg, 1984). Trama comun. [online]. 2017, vol.21, n.1, pp.29-43. ISSN 1668-5628.

The general objective of this article is to analyze María Luisa Bemberg’s Camila (1984), a fundamental film about the relationship between cinema and feminism in Argentina. The specific objective is to investigate the construction of the figure of modern woman as a desiring subject in the adaptation of nineteenth-century history to the film, whose transposition refers to events of 1847, at the time of the government of Juan Manuel de Rosas (1835-1852). The hypothesis that guides the work is that the link between desire and politics is expressed in a feminist cinematographic form, oriented by a critical revision of the historical drama. With this purpose, I am interested in investigating the film from the horizon of emancipation opened by the women's movement and the cinematographic culture connected with the "second wave".

Keywords : Argentine cinema; María Luisa Bemberg; Camila O’Gorman; Eroticism; Synesthesia; Feminist perspective.
