Abstract

This paper discusses the relational and subjective aspects of
Eduardo Coutinho’s creation processes, particularly in his new
movie, As canções. Fundamented on the concepts of “fabulation”
and “ritornello” by Deleuze and Guattari, the paper seeks to analyze
Coutinhos’s modes of filmmaking not as an “authoral matter”,
but as a practice of subjective production. I here suggest that his
filmmaking processes can be seen as a communicative practice
which belongs to a territory of invention and to an ethics of the
event, as Badiou understands it.
