LOPES, Joyce do Nascimento. The plane of Passional Expression in the Movie: Analysis of the film Elena.Translated byCésar González Ochoa. Tóp. Sem [online]. 2023, n.50, pp.77-92.  Epub June 23, 2023. ISSN 2594-0619.

Based on French semiotics, we aim to analyze the expression plane of the Brazilian film Elena (2012), directed by Petra Costa. Based on events from the director's life, the work is an intimate and personal experience that materializes her relationship with the memory of her sister, Elena, whose story was marked by a tragic event. The feature film, then, reveals a particular universe, built through affections to generate certain meaning effects. So, throughout our study, we verified how affectivity, passion and subjectivity permeate the filmic realization in its manifestation, establishing a passionate tone that mediates the relations between enunciator and enunciate, approaching these actants of the enunciation in order to affectively mobilize the viewer. Thus, we aim to contribute to analytical research on cinema, which still proves to be quite challenging in the scope of discourse theories.

Keywords : french semiotics; affectivity; passions; subjectivity; enunciation.
