Carles Porta y Tor
This research focuses on the work of journalist Carles Porta, in particular on the incident of a real crime in Tor, a small village in the Catalan Pyrenees. Porta has conducted nearly three decades of journalistic investigation, culminating in the production of Tor, la muntanya maleïda (“Tor, The Cursed Mountain”), a true crime documentary series. The aim of this study is to explore how an investigative journalist adopts the role of a storyteller and transforms a real event into a sensa : The existence is observed of a distinctive authorial mark characterized by his interventions, interactions and emotional involvement with the characters throughout the narrative
