Resumen
CASALE, Marta. Memorias y (des)memorias de la dictadura. Una lectura de La mujer sin cabeza, de Lucrecia Martel. Cuad. Cent. Estud. Diseñ. Comun., Ensayos [online]. 2021, n.95, pp.121-134. Epub 30-Ago-2021. ISSN 1853-3523. http://dx.doi.org/10.18682/cdc.vi95.3913.
The film, from 2008, proposes a story in which one can easily find correspondences with the disappearance of people during the Argentine military dictatorship: the disappearance of a body, a probable crime that is efficiently hidden, corruption and complicity. But, after the most obvious allegorical interpretation, there appears the possibility of another less obvious one that, on the one hand, endorses it and, on the other, questions it, through, above all, formal procedures. In this way, the story raises two readings that, how-ever, are linked, relating, in addition, present and past: the disappeared of yesterday are the invisible of today, the result of a regime that spreads, beyond the limits of the dictatorship , through neoliberal economic policies that exclude them.
By putting these issues back in focus, the film morally challenges the viewer about its own role in both contexts.
