Representations of black people in Brazil in the film BLUESMAN: Identity development through cinematic ‘grammar’
Abstract
The identity of Black people in Brazil in the film BLUESMAN is suggested through several feelings that are expressed througth filmic and metaphorical codes.
This study´s premisse is to decode the feelings we identified – Dream, Pride, and Hope. All them suggested by the use of certain plans, the scenario and/or props, the wardrobe, the body language of characters, as well as the text and the sountrack.
We intend to analize filmic and sign strategies throughout the film, and the way they act in the construction of a people´s brand.
