Abstract

The purpose of this work is to emphasize the identity nature of onirophile cinema - lover of dreams -, and the erotic imagery that rescues contemporary depression from the joy of living and dreaming. There are films and filmmakers - such as Glauber, Lars Von Trier, Hitchcock, Kubrick, etc. - that identify the existence of factual life situations in which man and society are on the verge of an abyss, a collapse, or related themes with death tensions in the most Freudian sense of the term, or by explicit styles of images constructed from vertigo and threats of nuclear destruction.
