Representations of Love in Movies: opening the “Medianeras” in the era of connections

Authors

Abstract

In this article, we intent to observe how the representations of love are engendered on a film narrative and analyze the possible changes in those representations. The study design is qualitative, empirical-theoretical. The corpus of analysis consists of the narratives of film production entitled Medianeras – Buenos Aires na era do amor virtual. The interpretation held on a psychosocial perspective. The narratives indicate different paths to love, that are built based on the triad I-alter-world. Even though it has no single format, love insists, revealing itself in the urban architecture, including the medianeras.
