El concepto de encierro en el discurso cinematográfico de la película : Prometeo Deportado

Abstract

PrometeoDeportado (2010), the first fiction movie of Ecuadoran documentary maker (up to this movie) Fernando Mieles, presents to the spectator a set of allegories and references that work as a clear putting in scene of the different realities of Ecuador. For long time, the fiction in this side of the world, has used the topic of the migration; nevertheless, in the tape, the topic is seen from a different perspective: from the desolation of a confinement. As the story develops, the spectator will experiment an allegoric and spiritual trip. In this document there will be approached concepts reflected in movie scenes, across the philosophy of Gilles Deleuze, Michel Foucault and Francis Vanoye, and your concepts of this prison in which prominent figures, only perceptible to this double look of the spectator: in other words, the worlds of diégesis and extradiégesis. The movie handles also a dramatic code nearby to the Greek mythology. In this aspect, the need to read the tape from the Greek myths (especially the versions of Aeschylus and Hesíodus) will be a basic procedure that will sustain the whole range of significances and interpretations
