Resumen
PAGANELLI, Pia. Ộrí, a Poetic and Audiovisual Ritual: In Pursuit of a Lost Afro-Brazilian Identity. Estud. Asia Áfr. [online]. 2021, vol.56, n.3, pp.577-592. Epub 01-Nov-2021. ISSN 2448-654X. https://doi.org/10.24201/eaa.v56i3.2694.
Ộrí is a Brazilian documentary directed by Raquel Geber (1989) that documents the cultural exchanges between Brazil and Africa through the life of Beatriz Nascimento (1942-1995), a historian and Black activist of Brazil’s Black Movement. The film’s narrative seeks to rebuild a black identity inside Brazil. This article analyzes the documentary from Paul Gilroy’s Black Atlantic and Stuart Hall’s Cultural Studies’ perspectives in order to show how Beatriz Nascimento’s discussion about Black identity in America (as a transnational phenomenon) and in Brazil (as a national phenomenon) is based on her studies of the quilombo, concept conceived by Nascimiento as a fundamental category in the ethnic and national self-affirmation process.
