Abstract
Este artigo propõe-se a realizar uma análise do documentário Pedra da Memória (2011), de Renata Amaral, utilizando proposições que observem as diferentes linguagens e diálogos culturais sintetizados na obra. Neste trabalho, transpomos nosso olhar ao viés intermidiático desta leitura fílmica. As narrativas presentes no filme são observadas enquanto formas de se visibilizar os trânsitos de uma memória corpo-ancestral que embarcou forçosamente em África, e que foram e são reproduzidas e mantidas nas casas de religião afro-brasileira em todo território nacional. Nesta oportunidade, conduzimos aproximações e conexões a partir da possibilidade e potencialidade que emerge dentro da construção artística fílmica, que expressa uma tendência e necessidade em convergir linguagens, como meio de aproximar e reformular narrativas históricas. Observam-se nesta leitura duas dimensões intermidiáticas da obra fílmica: uma que se direciona a pensar o uso de sobreposições de imagens, realizada através de uma combinação de mídias, e outra que se dedica a pensar o corpo como um veículo intermidiático, marcado pela perspectiva e pelo elo ancestral. Para realizar tal leitura, nos utilizamos, fundamentalmente, dos referenciais teóricos cunhados pela pesquisadora Irina Rajewsky (2005), no que tange à intermidialidade, e da historiadora brasileira Beatriz Nascimento (1989), no tocante à corporeidade afro-brasileira enquanto um veículo ancestral que comunica saberes.
This paper proposes to bring in an analysis of the documentary film Pedra da Memória (2011), by Renata Amaral, using propositions that observe the different languages and cultural dialogues synthesized in the work. In this effort, we transpose our gaze to the intermidiatic bias of this filmic reading. The narratives present in the film are observed as ways of making visible the transits of an ancestral body memory, that forcibly embarked on Africa, and which were and are reproduced and maintained in Afro-Brazilian religious houses throughout the country. In this opportunity, we conduct approximations and connections based on the possibility and potential that emerges within the artistic film construction, which expresses a tendency and need to converge languages, as a means of bringing together and reformulating historical narratives. In this point of view, two intermidiatic dimensions of the film work can be observed: one that aims to think about the use of image overlays, carried out through a media combination, and another that is dedicated to thinking of the body as an intermidiatic vehicle, marked by perspective and by the ancestor. In order to carry out this reading, we used, fundamentally, the theoretical references coined by the researcher Irina Rajewsky, regarding intermediality, and by the Brazilian historian Beatriz Nascimento, regarding the Afro-Brazilian corporeality as an ancestral vehicle that communicates knowledge.
