Abstract

The military dictatorship which goes from 1964 to 1980 is a landmark event of Brazilian politics and is registered in different forms and cultural expressions. In this text, we relate a traumatic
memory to the Brazilian circuit of global memory. The sample of 34 films produced in Brazil in terms of dictatorship allows
it to question the official memory and the underground memories and discuss the function of memory in the Culture Industry context.
