Modernidade, brevidade e catástrofe: uma análise do documentário "Nós que aqui estamos por vós esperamos", de Marcelo Masagão

Abstract

The purpose of this article is to attempt a critical and immanent analysis of the documentary Nos que aqui estamos por vos esperamos (1999), by Marcelo Masagao, concentrating on his own film narrative. For this, we seek to articulate theory to the analysis of the images, using a theoretical framework that has elective affinities with the film structure. At first, it is intended to make a quick bibliographical and conceptual review, whose purpose is to assist us in the incursion of the artistic material. In the second and third part of this work we  analyze the film narrative and its meaning more closely, followed by some final considerations.
