Our goal is to reflect upon the images of Brazilian Northeast on contemporary regional Cinema. We will observe the representation of this space in a specific time frame. In the repertoire of the national culture, the Northeast is one of the most recurrent spaces, but over the years there were various images formulated to represent it. Thus, the very construction of a regional identity permeates these representations. In the context of Brazilian Cinema, the Northeastern representation reached its apogee in the Cinema Novo movement, with the called “sertão trilogy” (SYLVIE DEBS, 2007): Deus e o Diabo na Terra do Sol (Glauber Rocha, 1964. “Black God, White Devil”), Os Fuzis (Ruy Guerra, 1964) e Vidas Secas (Nelson Pereira dos Santos, 1963. “Barren Lives”). However, as Dídimo (2012), we understand that film Brazilian Northeast is an approach that is not dissociated from a political and historical context. The contemporary Cinema view on this region address issues relevant to the globalized world, making a reinterpretation and reconstruction of the space: it discusses multiculturalism and the local x global relationship, without, however, leaving aside the symbolic structures that permeates the Northeastern imaginary. Thus, our goal is to construct a study on the representation of Brazil’s Northeast on the national contemporary Cinema. Thereunto, we will prioritize productions – in an “auteur theory” (AUMONT, 2008; BORDWELL, 2008) perspective – from this own region: O Som ao Redor (Kleber Mendonça Filho, 2012. “Neighboring Sounds”), Árido Movie (Lírio Ferreira, 2005) and A História da Eternidade (Camilo Cavalcante, 2014). By understanding that in the national contemporary Cinema there is a reinterpretation in the representation of Brazilian Northeast space, we selected these movies with the aim of investigate how this region is approached in a globalized context. Therefore, we began a foray that seeks to stablish a dialogue between the “new” Third Cinema/Peripheral Contemporary Cinema (PRYSTHON, 2010) and the contemporary regional movies, but not leaving aside aesthetic issues concerning the Third Cinema and its process of transformation.
