SOBERON, Fabián Augusto. Conflicts of power in Nosilatiaj la belleza. Folia [online]. 2017, n.30, pp.29-51. ISSN 0325-8238.

Nosilatiaj or the beauty is atypical for various reasons. First, Nosilatiaj has been filmed in a marginal area. Second, although the problem it poses is not new, the point of view to show power relations is challenging. While there have been films that propose the asymmetrical relationships between bosses and servants (think of Los Dueños, by Toscano and Radusky, for example), Nosilatiaj exposes the conflict between a sector of the criolla society (the white bourgeoisie) and a wichí group through a matter that seems smaller or insignificant: the beauty of the hair. Michel Foucault had already warned about the different modes of control and disciplining that operate in a society. The French philosopher states that the power is not only expressed through by the State and its armed axis (the army and the police), but that power it is externalized and installed through different technologies: schools, hospitals, families, etc. This essay deals with elucidating these conflicts of power within the framework of a film produced and performed from the north of Argentina.
