VALDEZ, María. ¿Qué Hago en Manila?. Cuad. Cent. Estud. Diseñ. Comun., Ensayos [online]. 2022, n.108, pp.168-187.  Epub 01-Mayo-2022. ISSN 1853-3523.  http://dx.doi.org/10.18682/cdc.vi108.4053.

This article analyzes the relationship between the use of the body and its sociocultural performance from the erotic recovery of the police in the film Muerte en Buenos Aires (2014, Natalia Meta). In this film, music operates as a catalyst for the tension that exists between the denied desire and the law, the heteronormic submission and the breakdown of the genre. Thus, violence spills out as a persistent and permanent latency in Argentine society. Methodologically, this work crosses tools of textual microanalysis of films and cultural criticism, and is proposed as a reading about problem states such as cultural symptoms.

Palabras clave : Argentian film; queer; performance; songs; police film; civil-military dictatorship..
