A investigação de si em encontro com os outros: perambular, filmar, ensinar e pesquisar como atos de formação

Abstract

In this text, written as a memoir, I look back at my formative years in the film field. To do this, I understand formation in a way that goes beyond regular formation, with courses and degrees, and that is constantly taking place, with no clear starting point and even less of a delimited end. For the sake of organization, but also as a gesture in search of self-understanding, I have divided this journey into five phases, which I call inflections. Although at many moments, as may be natural in a memoir, the evocation of the self is intense and perhaps excessive, the purpose of this article is to argue in the collective and community sense of formation, especially formation in the arts and in the field of cinema.
