The conflict personification in "Eles não usam black-tie" (1981), by Leon Hirszman

Journal Title: Uningá Review - Year 2021, Vol 36, Issue 1

Abstract

The end of the 1980s in Brazil is marked by a pre-democratic period full of various social conflicts and workers' strikes, a theme that reverberated in cinema and audiovisual. It is necessary to understand specific productions from this period, such as thefilm Eles Não Usam Black-Tie(1981), by Leon Hirszman, mainly in the relationship that the characters may establish with the viewers. The purpose of this article is to reflect on how the real conflict experienced by the working class at that time was translated into the characters in Hirszman's film and, for that, José Carlos Avellar's reflections from the book Pai país, mãe pátria. For this discussion, bibliographic research was carried out, whose sources were scientific works published in national magazines. In the analysis of the film, it is possible to observe that the characters represent, in some way, socio-political issues of the workers in the confused pre-democratic Brazilian social reorganization in a process of personification of the conflict, which transforms the concrete conflict into characteristics and traits of characters and relationships between them. Therefore, the importance of expanding studies on Brazilian films and the personification of conflicts in audiovisual plots is highlighted.
