The monstrosity ofthe beauty ofthe apparent, the bodies and communities ofthe possible:freaks and the shape ofwater, enclaves ofbiopolitical analysis on the global social crisis
(Universidad de Los Lagos, 2023-12-16) Garay, J.; Hermosilla, D.
The following essay makes a critical analysis of the discourses/practices of modernity from the perspective of biopolitics around abnormality, science (as technoscience) and the possibilities of community that exist in the relationships of the marginalized. Taking as referents the films Freaks and The Shape ofWater. Showing how cinema plays and proposes critical elements of these practices/discourses of modernity. Within this abnormality, we will consider monstrosity as metaphor and corporeal reality, and women as borderline and marginal bodies of the cast (in Ranciere's terms). An analysis that plays with the contingency of the social crisis we are going through worldwide, as well as the social and corporal fragments, but which, nevertheless, in their entrails make possible other forms of relationships, other fabrics and possibilities of community.
