Subjectivation and embodied memory in political cinema made by women

Two films, Finding Victor (2005) and Suspended Time (2015), by the same director, Natalia Bruschtein, propose an approach to the process that we call political subjectivation (Rancire, 1996).We chose both productions because we discovered in them the axes that we are interested in addressing and from which we start, that is, memory, history, politics and female subjectivation in cinema.What we find here is the trajectory of a daughter who traces the last steps of her militant father and the political activism of a woman who searches for her missing children during the period of dictatorship in Argentina.Natalia Bruschtein, the daughter and granddaughter of this story, reconstructs from that place the events that have marked her family at a time when memory begins to deteriorate and memory resurfaces urgently to revitalize it.With these particularities we propose that this particular case provides us with essential elements to continue thinking about the processes of political subjectivation not only of activists, militants and agents close to the events but also the forms of approach and political awakening of those who, watching a documentary, from the Instead of being a spectator, they find sensitive pieces that humanize the history of a present time that concerns them.
