“The Repertorial Spectator and their intertextual/technological dialogues”, presented by Denize Correa Araujo, reflects on how the film” Jogador Número 1 “(Ready Player One, Spielberg, 2017) demands a spectator out of the ordinary, what she calls”Repertorial Spectator”, which is capable of dialoguing with intertexts that are a fundamental part of understanding the created context.
CIAC collaborator Jusciele Oliveira (UAlg) attends the event as part of the thematic session “Black Cinemas: Aesthetics, Narratives and Audiovisual Policies in Africa and Afro-Diasporas” . With the communication “Creolization of Portuguese Language in Contemporary Films of PALOPs” the researcher proposes a debate on the issue of language in cinema and the Creolization of Portuguese Language in Films from African Countries that have Portuguese as an Official Language (PALOPs).
