Maria Antonieta: uma abordagem cinematográfica do indivíduo contemporâneo

Abstract

This research analyzes the film Maria Antonieta and aim to demonstrate that the work directed by American Sofia Coppola is able to provide a meaning related to existential condition of the individual in the contemporaneity. For that, performs two major efforts. First, it defines this individual using the sociology of Zygmunt Bauman e Michel Maffesoli, specifically their position about the situation of contemporany man. Then, analyzes the film, making an approach to dionisyan-liquid concept, developed based on the two thinkers. For this, it uses as methodology a technique of film analysis developed by David Bordwell. It is responsable for bringing the film to the sociological concept, demonstrating the possibility that the senses necessary for the consolidation or meaning are constructed, what characterizes the trajectory of the main character as a pendulum between Bauman's liquid modernity and Maffesoli's postmodernity.
