This project will focus on queer Brazilian production from 1964 to the present. It aims to develop atheoretical framework that accounts for the interferences between my selected films and the historical political scenario upon their release. In countries with a high rate of violence against queer people, suchas Brazil, the films made by and with queer characters have collaborated in creating awareness andsecuring rights for the LGBTQIA+ community - Colling (2018).In light of this, this PhD project intends to discuss the approximations between aesthetics, ethics, andpolitics in Brazilian queer filmmaking, with a focus on the representations of marginalised subjects. Bydrawing upon Sims (1988), Moreno (2002), Rancière (2009), and Trevisan (2018), this project willcontribute to debates about gender, decoloniality, and cinema in a Latin American context. One of itsdriving questions will be: what are the relationships between queer audiovisual production and thepolitical scenario through Brazilian history? This research will have a decolonial approach by focusing ona Brazilian context, by promoting marginalized voices, and by using mainly Latin-American scholars forits development, such as Muñoz (1999), Santos (2010), Marques (2014), and Louro (2018).My goal is to understand how cinema can help us identify a path of queer representations within Brazilianqueer political history and how, both in films made by queer people and films not made by queer people,but that feature queer characters, there is a power structure centered on queerness. To that end, I intendto conduct a longitudinal study, with a social-historical emphasis, by looking at a corpus of 8 films relatedto different historical periods within Brazil. To explore the historical and political context that impacts theproduction and reception of films, I will select works that cover the period between 1964 and the present.This periodisation is necessary because it encompasses a scenario of intense political change in Brazil,covering four different forms of political and economic regimes: 1964-1985 (military dictatorship); 1985-1989 (neoliberalism and nationalism); 1989-2016 (neoliberalism and democratisation); 2016-2021 (riseof the far right).

这个项目将集中在酷儿巴西生产从1964年到现在。它旨在发展一个理论框架，解释我所选择的电影和它们发行后的历史政治场景之间的干扰。在对酷儿的暴力率高的国家，如巴西，由酷儿角色制作的电影已经合作，为LGBTQIA+社区创造意识和保障权利- Colling（2018）。鉴于此，这个博士项目打算讨论巴西酷儿电影制作中美学，伦理和政治之间的近似，重点是边缘化主题的表现。通过借鉴西姆斯（1988），莫雷诺（2002），朗西埃（2009）和特雷维桑（2018），这个项目将有助于在拉丁美洲背景下关于性别，非殖民化和电影的辩论。其中一个驱动问题将是：在巴西历史上，酷儿视听产品和政治场景之间的关系是什么？这项研究将有一个非殖民化的方法，通过关注巴西的背景，通过促进边缘化的声音，并主要使用拉丁美洲学者为其发展，如穆尼奥斯（1999），桑托斯（2010），马克斯（2014）和卢罗（2018）。我的目标是了解电影如何帮助我们确定巴西酷儿政治历史中的酷儿表征路径，以及如何，无论是由酷儿制作的电影，还是由非酷儿制作，但有酷儿角色的电影，都有一个以酷儿为中心的权力结构。为此，我打算进行一项纵向研究，重点关注社会历史，研究与巴西不同历史时期相关的8部电影。为了探索影响电影制作和接受的历史和政治背景，我将选择涵盖1964年至今这段时期的作品。这一时期划分是必要的，因为它涵盖了巴西激烈的政治变革，涵盖了四种不同形式的政治和经济制度：1964-1985年。（军事独裁）; 1985-1989年（新自由主义和民族主义）; 1989-2016年（新自由主义和民主化）; 2016-2021年（极右翼崛起）。
