Abstract

Based on the emergence of cinema analysis models related to the World-System theory by Fernand Braudel and Immanuel Wallerstein, we built a reflection on the Chilean movie NO (Pablo Larraín, 2012) that includes both the historical circumstances of the movie plot, which is the 1988's Plebiscite, and the context in which the movie was produced. We compare political and poetical issues in order to suggest that the film is a rethorical articulation of some social contents which have been in the spotlight throughout the last four decades and enable long term interpretative and imaginative patterns.
