Abstract

The critique, through the Skol beer advertising, with the film Argentinos do samba, discuss the theme of identity construction, specifically the national identity, relating the discussion about advertising, with the process of consumption. It is demonstrated how the consumption is essential to the production process, engine of the society dynamic. The advertising, inserted in media culture, gives speed to the process of consumption, which means, the good is produced and the advertising’s role is to publicize it to be consumed, associating its functionality (use value) to its symbolic values (exchange value). And so, the advertising
makes possible, by images and discourses, the circulation of identity behaviors, associated with lifestyles.
