IN THE BOOK ``CENA DE RUA``, KIDNAPPED CHILDREN'S LIVES: IS IT POSSIBLE TO RESIST?
In the picture-book “Cena de rua” (1994), by Ângela Lago, we have a narrative in which a child lives selling in the streets and goes through several situations of abandonment and neglect of society in front of his life. Starting from some scenes in this book and a photograph from the newspaper “Tribuna do Norte” (2013) in which people act as if they were a power of judicial practice that tells the truth about this (these) subject(s), we will analyze how the images operate on a saying/show that triggers the kidnapping of the lives of children who find themselves in social vulnerability.

Abstract:
In the picture-book “Cena de rua” (1994), by Ângela Lago, we have a narrative in which a child lives selling in the streets and goes through several situations of abandonment and neglect of society in front of his life. Starting from some scenes in this book and a photograph from the newspaper “Tribuna do Norte” (2013) in which people act as if they were a power of judicial practice that tells the truth about this (these) subject(s), we will analyze how the images operate on a saying/show that triggers the kidnapping of the lives of children who find themselves in social vulnerability.
