Abstract:
The work aims to address the issue of social inclusion in relation to issues related to media discourse, in the last twenty-five years there has been a growing participation in relation to the documentary genre in national circuits and festivals. The imagery media, mainly cinema, has approached the theme of inclusion during these last years in a way that broadens the spectator's gaze, starting to observe a physical, sensorial, visual difficulty, without any kind of prejudice that is often linked to a lack of information and the judgment of the incapacity of the human being. In this sense, contemporary Brazilian cinema has been building new perspectives on social relations, from this inclusive perspective, people with disabilities (PCD) with reference to the analysis of two films: a fictional short and another of the documentary type that seek to inform and expand this look at the issue of difference. The fictional short film:``Cão Guia`` (Gustavo Acioli, 1999) which creates the possibilities of a life without restrictions both in terms of love and social life independently for the visually impaired and the documentary aspect of ``Do Luto à Luta`` (Evaldo Mocarzel, 2005) which shows the difficulties of people with Down Syndrome in a way never before discussed in the Brazilian filmic universe until then, in a personal way, and in a direct way, it deals with prejudices, challenges and sensitivity, leading to discussion, to question of the school and its participation in the inclusion process, and thus observe the way in which we begin to observe the other based on the Brazilian filmic context.
